    This sounds much like my 1st jump course. 13 took the class, 13 jumped, 5 returned for about 2 months, then 3 for a couple more months, then 2 for 6 more months. Then 1 for 14 years. Correction: You DID get it. They didn't. Cheers. Larry 'In an insane society a sane person seems insane.' Mr. Spock

    With all the wingsuit instructors there, local and out of state, you shouldn't have to try to hard or wait that long. See ya there! Cheers Larry 'In an insane society a sane person seems insane.' Mr. Spock

    August 24, 25, & 26, 2007. The Ballunar Liftoff festival. Make Space Center Houston your DZ for the weekend. One of the big questions is always: "What aircraft will we have". The answer: "The more people we have particpating, the larger the aircraft will be." Q; Will there be CRW?, freefly?, Wingsuits? A: If we have enough people from those disiplines interested in particpating, Yes. That's why I'm getting the word out early this year so mark your calendar. Here's a few pics from previous years: the landing area, a formation built over the landing area, our air conditioned packing area, the Booze Luge1, the Booze Luge2. Thanks to John Rich. I linked to pics from his last year's post. MOO CREW UNITE !! Cheers Larry 'In an insane society a sane person seems insane.' Mr. Spock

    Probably just made them up. Because it's a well known fact that 87.327% of all statistics are made up on the spot. 'In an insane society a sane person seems insane.' Mr. Spock

    Larry should get a big pile of $2 bills and ask ALL skydivers to buy and use $2 bills for their spending needs while in Eloy. I once heard a story of a small DZ owner being harrassed by his local city officials doing this and then at the next town meeting asking if the influx had been noticed. It had and apparently they decided his business was good for the town. Cheers 'In an insane society a sane person seems insane.' Mr. Spock

    Maybe if they did it wouldn't be AS dangerous. Complacency Kills. Cheers. Larry. 'In an insane society a sane person seems insane.' Mr. Spock

    But the Blue team did get to do their 1st round jump Sunday, and were declared the official winners. Grrrrrr.... Oh well.. Next year.

    Here is the landing area. The parking lot will be mostly tents and vendor stands. Here is the packing area. Imagine a big air-conditioned building around the Saturn rocket. I think there may still be slots available.

    Fill cooler with Beer and ice. as you're getting another beer. So be sure to have plenty of beer. There... that's better.

    No jumping down there?? They using all the planes for transporting goods? Hope you're able to make it back to the flock soon. Cheers. Larry 'In an insane society a sane person seems insane.' Mr. Spock

    I don't think so. I've seen all those funniest videos/Max-X videos where the groom decides it's a great ideal to jump into the wedding and winds up taking out cars in the parking lot. I'll be staying on the ground that day I'm sure. Cheers. Larry 'In an insane society a sane person seems insane.' Mr. Spock

    Course not, I'm sure you'll have the same amount of success you always did.

    We are still looking for anyone interested in jumping at the Ballunar Liftoff festival. Taking off from Ellington field, we exit above, and land at, NASA's Space Center Houston. Requirements: 'C' License. Able to safely dock on an RW formation. Able to FLY A PATTERN and land safely. (at least that's a requirement on my team). For those that haven't done this it's really fun. A demo jump where you land and smooze with the crowd & possibly sign a few autographs. The schedule is not pressing, and the cost is nominal, and Rich's Sat. night party phenomenal. For those "I'll come if there's a CASA but not for an otter", here's reality: If we can't fill the otter we can't fill a CASA. If we fill the otter this year we can plan for a CASA next year. This event is on the verge of extinction, we need participants to keep it happening. Contact myself, Brad Lambert, Chuck Akers, Rich Delgado and fill a slot NOW! Cheers.

    How much are the slot raffle tickets? (if that's what you're doing.). I gotta start saving. whoops.... to late. Cheers. Larry 'In an insane society a sane person seems insane.' Mr. Spock

    you are correct. I definitely faffed to long, . Also should have kept those legs together to keep that wing deflated. I may have started trying to kick but they were definitly just flying out in front of me after a few revolutions. Cheers. Larry 'In an insane society a sane person seems insane.' Mr. Spock
