Jeb, this one is for you

Recommended Posts

Yo Jeb :)
Russians will fly SU-27 through Tianmen Cave on March 17-19

The cave (or rather natural bridge) is 430ft high, 200ft deep (depth/height < 0.5). At 190ft width, it can fit a wingsuit formation! With smoke, it will be beautiful. And money seems to grow on trees there... ;)

anyway, looks like you could do a floater exit and then fly through



Well, I think the guy who did 11 seconds at Bridge Day 2005 and flew past the LZ can do just that. I don't remember his name... do you? ;)

If someone dares to backfly through this thing with a "guide", the visuals would be just unearthly. The talus seems to be friendly, >2000ft at ~45 degrees? Google Earth seems to have old and low resolution data on this region, but if this road (see pics) is under the cave, then there's plenty of space to land.
