konradptr 0 #27 July 23, 2002 E-ticket rides are the sweet jump planes. Above, it means the helicopter. HOWEVER, screw the helicopter for $59!!! I can do a balloon for that (everywhere but at the WFFC...) And 23,000 for $49??? I did two of them for $25 a piece in Eloy. But wait, you can spend $69 for "registration". I can buy my own keg and drink that, forget the "free" beer. ------------------------------------------ Getting banned isn't that bad...... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hobbes4star 0 #31 July 23, 2002 i was going to go. my wifes family gets together every year in versailles (sp?) which is 1.5 hrs away form wffc. it was even closer to quincy anyways i can't go this year because my boss is into odd forms of torture. like letting me think till last week that i would be able to go and than pulling the plug on it. if fun were easy it wouldn't be worth having, right?

I can buy my own keg and drink that, forget the "free" beer. E ticket does not mean the sweet jump planes in this case. You may do a helo jump, but I promise you a ride in Rod's 412 is far more than a simple ride to altitude. E ticket in this case means a ride that will have you whooping and hollering all the way while making you think you're going lose your cookies and/or sanity. Yes, you can get to 23,000 for less, but not in less time, I'll bet. Mike's plane is second only to Rod's 412 for a fun ride to alti. Yes, you'll spend a shitload of mony at the WFFC, I do every year. But by The Cosmic Muffin, you'll be smilling all the way to the ATM. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money. Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have a hard time believing it will beat riding front slot on the outside platform of an MD-500 during an infil...but probably the closest you'll come without joining the military. Not having to join the military is certainly worth $59!!! BTW....I think the younger generation might identify with an "X-ticket" better.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skymut 0 #39 July 23, 2002 For those who know/remember the TV show "Hee-Haw": Ahem, testing one-two...is this thing on?..can you hear me okay?.... Gloom, despair and agony on me....WHOA! I got no money, so NO WFFC....WHOA! If I had more cash I be there with bells on... Gloom, despair and agony on me. (That second line would have worked better with 'Quincy').
