Thanks dropdeded Chicagoland Skydiving, Hinckley, IL, about 50miles west of the city Skydive Chicago, Ottawa, IL, about 70 miles SW of the city. Both are excellent DZs with Otters, load organizers, etc. Just to see Skydive Chicago's facilities is worth a trip there.... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one.

Dougiefresh 0 #3 February 23, 2006 East Troy (near Milwaukee) is also a good dz, and about the same drive time from Chicago. They have a shiny new PAC, too! Definitely worth a jump, it's a great little plane. www.skydivemilwaukee.com That being said, SDC is home. There's just no place like it.Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so. --Douglas Adams Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
