20$ Helicopter jumps

Recommended Posts

This is what we're going to jump from this weekend. The Royal Norwegian Airforce will make two Bell 412 SP helicopters avaliable for us ALL weekend. 20$ per jump is not too bad either.
This is going to be a GREAT weekend. :)

It that the same one that has been down at DZ's in FL all winter?



Yep, that's the one. It gets a wee bit chilly up here during the winter. Its back home now though. :)

Not bad....Cross Keys has an Alouette II for $17 every day. Chopper jumps are just plain fun. B|



An alouette isn't quite a bell 412, but yes it's also fun... (then again.. not evety 412 pilot is Rod, so..... hmm.. i though i had a point *shrug*)

just remember not to hide from the pilot to get good ground video, 'eh?

Landing without injury is not necessarily evidence that you didn't fuck up... it just means you got away with it this time

Yeah.....most people really go for the ride in Rod's chopper. So...I kinda threw that out. I was just thinking about how fast they climb. That Alouette climbs FAST! However, those ARE military pilots. So who knows...you might get the good ride too.

Actually it's $25...but still a good deal. I think you were out there the day it was only $17 because we only had one caravan (all other planes were loaned out) so John decided to help us out getting in the air by taking regular jump tickets for the chopper.

Ahhhh...didn't realize that was a "special." $25 is still a good deal though no doubt!
