$10 jumps? Coolidge/Mullins

[flyingferret 0]

I have heard that there are $10 jumps at Coolidge for Mullins King Air wintering there. Anyone confirm this? If so, I am definitely hitting Coolidge on the way to Eloy.

Thanks, I will be making the stop! I heard he lowered them to $10 to compete with Eloy (source said they had a bit of a fued). Either way $13 to jump from Mullin's, $13 to jump at Skydvie AZ, YES! Jump them all.

Mullins' does'nt have a boogies cost either so in the long run the king air is cheaper.

Err. Well, it's true that we are going to have a great time at Eloy, but I also have a lot of very cool friends who work at Mike's.

I think that anybody travelling to Eloy for the boogie should get the most of the experience and check out coolidge too. They are both cool places. Coolidge is not as big but it has a real homey feeling. It's really hard to do a solo there because of how friendly people are. What is it like 25 minutes away?

No worries mate, she's in good company. I only hope she's not TOO drunk when she arrives

I think I'd be willing to take half a day or a day to go out there and jump the King-Air. It could be fun. I'm not going to stay away from Eloy and everyone at Eloy for too long, though, since that's why I'm going in the first place.

I'll be going to Mike's at least one day. You'll be suprised to see eloy people at Mike's and some of his guys come down to the bent prop once and awhile. Also Mike has been known to join in on the sunset flybys at eloy. Not sure how Larry likes it but cool as shit to see.

I could have went to Couch Freaks in 90 but didn't make it so I missed out on the Helio but I made it the next year and Mike's King Air was the first thing I jumped. Quite a step up from the 182 I was used to

coolidge is so close to eloy that you can see their airport form alt. you could almost xcountry to them..

if fun were easy it wouldn't be worth having, right?

I just ferried a 182 from Vegas to Houston back in Oct. Overflew Eloy @ 11K on the way and wished I could've stopped in....... I did call "Door" when overhead!!!!!! What an awesome location for a DZ........
