BillyVance 35 #2 February 12, 2009 Quotemoney for more wind tunnels so you dont have to drive 3 hours for a 15 minutes in the tunnel... Agreed. I don't understand why the Atlanta area does not have a wind tunnel already, as big a city as it is, and with 3 drop zones around it, it could support one easily."Mediocre people don't like high achievers, and high achievers don't like mediocre people." - SIX TIME National Champion coach Nick Saban Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But I agree I would love to have a vertical wind tunnel within an hour or so of me... it'd give me something to do in the winter... Livin' on the Edge... sleeping with my rigger's wife...

JohnRich 4 #7 February 13, 2009 I heard on the radio news that under the Obama plan every citizen will get an extra $13. $13? That's not even enough for a freakin' jump ticket! I at least want enough for a free jump. That will stimulate me, stimulate the DZO, stimulate the pilot, stimulate the aircraft mechanic, stimulate the fuel supplier, stimulate the fuel refiner, and stimulate the fuel provider. For just one measly jump ticket each, the economy gets all of that! Who's with me in favor of the new John Rich economic stimulus program? Let me hear the "aye's"!

Okay, Just what I wanted to hear, ya got my vote. Just as long as there is no BUTT provision before it. I bet that's how they'd do it: Promise all the SEKS we want, wait until after we vote them in, then tell us it's really butt SEKS and we are the receivers, not the givers.

Gene03 0 #12 February 13, 2009 IMO, yes. I've been wracking my brain to come up with some catchy lingo to go with the BUTT acronym. BOHICO works well also.“The only fool bigger than the person who knows it all is the person who argues with him.

squirrel 0 #13 February 13, 2009 Aye! * (earmark) Every wind tunnel constructed shall have a bar, which shall serve liquor and beer to wind tunnel participants and spectators, post wind tunnel participation. and, a tailer park, for tunnel rats. and, a runway, pilot, and otter, if we get bored of the tunnel. with DZ lights for night jumps. and, a swimming pool. ________________________________ Where is Darwin when you need him?
