storm1977 0 #1 September 21, 2003 I just saw a thread about jumping where the ground is at 5Kft above SL. I have a question... For the DZ's where this is the case, is maximum altitude w/out O2 9,999ft? If so, that sucks...

skybabe76 0 #2 September 21, 2003 I think it's actually 15,000 feet AGL. "If you're going to be stupid, you better be tough!" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kris 0 #3 September 21, 2003 QuoteI think it's actually 15,000 feet AGL. No, it's 15K MSL. For natives to that type of altitude, it's not that big of a deal but oxygen is made available to those who need it. They still go to around 13K AGL though.Sky, Muff Bro, Rodriguez Bro, and Bastion of Purity and Innocence!™ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jeremyneas 0 #4 September 22, 2003 The DZ's in Colorado all carry O2 on board for anyone who needs it. Standard elevation is 12,500' AGL, 17,500' MSL. Yes, we get acclimated to it. Instructors generally pull off about 12-15 jumps on a typical weekend day in the summer. A handful of rich fun jumpers as well ;) J.Neas Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
