highfly 0 #4 November 2, 2005 Your'e spot on there dia. I spent a week on the edge of Lake Taupo and every day without fail you would see at least 15 loads go up in a day, everyday. There are 3 tandem factories on the same dz there. TTF do the most closely followed by Great Lakes. Cant remember the 3rd one. www.myspace.com/durtymac Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
valcore 0 #5 November 2, 2005 Carolina Sky Sports in North Carolina has most of the big planes......... does that help We almost always have a CASA there if not there is an Otter at least. I have only made one Cessna jump so ....... I feel deprived... lol The most terrifying words in the English language are: ‘I'm from the government and I'm here to help’. ~Ronald Reagan 30,000,000 legal firearm owners killed no one yesterday.

diablopilot 2 #6 November 2, 2005 Yep, I spent a couple weeks there in 2000, and TT was by fat the busiest, with GL doing more fun jump business than TT, and the third operation was the seperate AFF company TT ran. GL was being run by Greg and Wendy Smith at the time..... TT is one of the most profesional operations I've ever seen. They'd do well no matter what they were selling, but the manage to provide options for everyone to spend, have tons of extras avaliabe, and have advertizing worked out to a "T". Tour busses regularly pulled in in the am and 40 people would get out and make jumps. The had a shuttle to all the hostles and backpackers dives in town. Man what a gig. Buddy of min was a TM there and he'd do 15 a day 6 days a week.....---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
