chopchop 0 #152 August 26, 2003 but it could be soooo cool... you guys could jump into marina, get in the otter witht he rest of us and we could all go do the beach jump.. maybe we could even get Jess to do one of the epic beach tours prior.. chopchop gotta go... Plaything needs a spanking.. Lotsa Pictures Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sebazz1 2 #153 August 26, 2003 I'm just sayin if we can only file a fifteen minute window with the FAA we only get one load. If we do not want to exclude anyone we might need a bigger plane... More than DZ loyalty I don't want anyone to get excluded... Wait! Renauds organiser... I'll just sit back and smile. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flymysky 0 #154 August 26, 2003 A beach tour in the otter would rock! But..... It's too late to change the plane, pilot or number of passes. We're committed now to one kingair load. Next time we'll give a whole lot more notice and I think they'll be more flexible. Cost will be 2 jump tickets. I need to hold slots now (cc#) but you can pay on Saturday. So far I have details from seven people. Bring your USPA D license # and expiration date, and re-pack card. And Beer who said that?! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skyshark6 0 #155 August 26, 2003 well, if you follow the "rule of skydiver thirds" 2/3 of the skydivers who say "count me in" will actually show up 1/3 of the skydivers who say "count me in" will hose you. so, if 20 people say "count me in", only 14 will show and we'll have a full king air... The correlary to the "rule of skydiver thirds" is the "make them pay upfront" rule. <><><><><><> Q: "Do you think it gets boring just flying around or is there more to it?"

skyshark6 0 #165 August 26, 2003 I'm a little skittish after my balloon jump at Rantoul where they told us 5 minutes before we jumped that we were "on our own for a ride back to the dz." luckily, a bunch of us landed together and a farmer took us back to the DZ. getting stranded away from the DZ with no beer = sucks <><><><><><> Q: "Do you think it gets boring just flying around or is there more to it?"

flymysky 0 #171 August 26, 2003 who's coordinating this whole thing? R2Hubert and Bat150 where, exactly, are we jumping? Seascapes Resort, Aptos (see attached) do we have a ground crew all lined up? Sort of...Anyone else want to help? how are we getting back from the beach? -- please tell me we're gonna use something other than the brown deathtrap ( i mean "van") No Are you bringing the RV? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skyshark6 0 #172 August 26, 2003 RV won't take all 14 people plus ground crew, sorry. guess we'll all have to take the deathtrap back to the DZ. If we survive the trip back, we can all have magaritas made with the RV's blender, though! Olé! Maybe I'll just jump my birdman suit and fly back from Aptos to Hollister.

chopchop 0 #173 August 26, 2003 my group will probably have a ride from the landing area so you are probably only going to need transport for 11 jumpers. chopchop gotta go... Plaything needs a spanking.. Lotsa Pictures Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skyshark6 0 #174 August 27, 2003 in theory, we can comfortably transport about 7 or 8 people, including the driver, but The RV only gets EIGHT MILES TO THE GALLON it is not useful as a transporter. we drive it to the DZ and PARK it. <><><><><><> Q: "Do you think it gets boring just flying around or is there more to it?"

flymysky 0 #175 August 27, 2003 I have confirmation from all except Crapflinger and TheAnvil. And we can take our pick of rides: the brown van has music, the two-tone has brakes, the white bus has music and brakes and a couple of seats for the ancient ones, but it's slower on the highway. We could take a vote. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
