    we got our paper work from http://www.go-russia.com/ visa@go-russia.com they faxed back invitation and voucher same day + instructions for filling in visa application form ( $20 each ). seems bureaucratic and complicated but once you have paperwork its no prob as for DZ try them again ! sometimes they answer immediately ,more times emails seem to get lost in cyberspace

    a friend of mine was there recently ! all i know is they have a AN2 that goes to 9/10k in 25 minutes . jump tickets are $20 approx and there are armed guards on the aircraft at all times ! ( so you dont hijack it and head for Florida i guess ) they also have an MI 8 helicopter in for their boogie in February
