A tunnel in Raeford would be great but a skydiving team haven in Raeford would be better!
Skydiving year round or tunnel flying year round is never a problem in Blue Skies Carolina. With the tunnel being climate controlled it will be nice to train in the tunnel and then drive a mile down the road to put into practice newly learned skills at the dz.
Financially, yes, it would be hard to have skydivers and/or teams support the wind tunnel year round. however, the Army overflow is an excellant source of additional income.
With the right marketing to non-skydivers, you can take in to account the incredible amount of tourism that comes in to North and South Carolina. You can literally drive from the ocean and to the mountains in less than a day. Why not add the tunnel to your intinary??
We're excited! We'll be there opening day with credit card in hand!
