snowboarderesw 0 #1 July 21, 2006 So I am relatively new to the sport but I have had an idea brewing in my mind for some time now and I was wondering if anyone can give me some info or details. I want to start my own dropzone someday and I am wondering if anyone knows what it takes to get stared. Any help would be awesome. Erik Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PhreeZone 20 #3 July 21, 2006 So you now have the airplane and thats about it for that much money, figure another half for the gear, facilities, etc Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tink1717 2 #4 July 21, 2006 Lots and lots of money. A small fortune in gear and a good airplane ( a LARGE fortune there). An airport that is both relatively close to a population center AND friendly (or at least not hostile) to jumpers. And a large landing area. That would be a good start.Skydivers don't knock on Death's door. They ring the bell and runaway... It really pisses him off. -The World Famous Tink. (I never heard of you either!!)
