GroundZero 0 #8 May 2, 2003 Eric, Did you ever jump the one with the killer stereo system in it... I think he sold it to Jim West? The one with the JBL subwoofers and cd player? We flew that in Tullahoma a few years back after he was bringing it back from Molalla, OR. I'll bet that is the one you've seen. Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

riggerrob 643 #11 May 2, 2003 Yes, Jim Baron's Westwind Beech is mighty fine. I did a whole s****load of tandems out of it during the summer of 1992. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nutz 0 #14 May 2, 2003 I was thinking of driving up on Sunday morning. (The afternoon looks wet.) Are you going to have some sort of packing area set up? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chris >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Chris, Look at my first post: "summer of 1992." That was before the piston-engined Beech crashed at Hinckley, Illinois and before the Westwind Beech left Hinckley. We lost a lot of good skydivers when that old Beech went in. P.S. I hope that Beezy has fun with the hand mount. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
