AggieDave 6 #1 November 21, 2010 Today was the last day of a DZ that I helped open back in 2002: Skydive Aggieland. There have been many ups and downs, but at the end of the day I completed 2115 jumps at this dropzone, including getting my coach rating and tandem rating. I learned how to fly my canopy at that dropzone, at the hands of Scott Miller (who we brought in around twice a year for a few years). A large number of jumpers had visited over the past 8 years, for the AOT boogies, other events, or just because. The Texas CPC had competitions there for a couple of years, as well. Skydive Aggieland at Coulter Field, than you for the memories, thank you for the experience and learning, thank you for all the friends I made. Most importantly, thank you for introducing me to my wife, who gave me such a great son, life and family. Thank you Skydive Aggieland for everything, you will be missed!--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

turtlespeed 226 #5 November 21, 2010 I am hoping that this story has another chapter. I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama BTR #1 / OTB^5 Official #2 / Hellfish #408 / VSCR #108/Tortuga/Orfun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
