phrog12 0 #1 May 6, 2001 Has anyone jumped at Emerald Coast DZ in Alabama or Crestview DZ in Florida? I will be moving to Pensacola and was wondering how the DZs were. I've been jumping at Skydive,AZ."Do or Do not there is no try" Yoda Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SkymonkeyONE 4 #3 May 7, 2001 I believe both places have websites. Crestview has a Caravan, and Emerald Coast has an otter, though I believe they are closing down. Rumor is that they are going to lease out the Otter. If you get to Crestview, look up Pete Markow and his wife; they are a trip!Another option for you is Moss Point, MS. It isn't really TOO much farther down the road in the opposite direction. Chuck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deleted 0 #4 May 8, 2001 hey phrog12, I have jumped with you at SkydiveAZ. I won't be making it to P-cola, Fl. to jump with you on this trip, but will visit after all is settled. So find a good place to go. Keep the "eye rays" to a minimum, be safe and haul ass. Sit-flyin Mike. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brokeneagle 0 #5 May 8, 2001 Emerald Coast is excellent- definitely check it out! I've jumped there on several occasions- the DZ is spacious and well set-up, large landing area, lots of outs- the DZO and staff friendly and helpful- jumpers there seem to be a good mix of types of flyers. Pensacola's terrific, too- lived there for a year, m'self--Enjoy the beautiful white sugar sand beaches, and the awesome skydives! Blue Skies!Brokeneagle.
