  5. Seven Hills is still a functioning club/dropzone. This is one of the more fun threads to come along in a while on this forum. It's amazing what you can pull out of the old brain after some rumination. Having kept logbooks helped too. When i started in 1969 I remember something like 22-23 clubs in Wisconsin alone. (just don't ask me to name them)
  6. I just don't know, he's not the bullshitting type. Hence my question. He's done a lot of work, well, the high performance people did a lot of work on his car. He's down south now and out of touch. When he gets back I'll get the skinny on the work and post it here, 'bout two weeks, till then... “The only fool bigger than the person who knows it all is the person who argues with him.

  8. I think Omro is still in operation. RevJims home DZ. Rainbow was called Parachuting Inc, Franklin Wis. I'll add the Pig Farm, south east Wisconsin, Winfield Road.

I remember a farmers field and quonset hut operation in northern Illinois somewhere around Hebron? Early seventies. Yup, logged in logbook. And of course Skydive Sandwich, drove by there a while back all hangers, houses and other things. Went though my old logbooks to add this. Osceola Wisconsin, home of the legendary "Annual Osceola Buffalo Hunt". Two Rivers Wisconsin. TRUE, Beloit Wisconsin. Very short lived. Stanton Minn . Skymart DZ Lansing Il, mentioned already. Mason Michigan, Jewett Airport. Remember the t-shirts? "I survived Mason Michigan".

  11. Sweet machine. Got a question for you. What kind of mileage do you get from it? A friend of has one, forget what year, he's tricked it out with all sorts of high performance carbon graphite inlets, drive shaft, don't remember what else but quite a long list of updates. Including dyno tuning and hacking the computer to lean out the burn. Was talking with him last week and he claimed he was averaging about ninety mpg on a week long road trip him and his wife took to Toronto. Is such a thing possible? He's an old trusted friend and not prone to bs or puffery, he does like to brag about his car though. “The only fool bigger than the person who knows it all is the person who argues with him.

  18. At least you have warm weather down your way. I've went by the "Gobbler" several times as a child while going to Northern Wisconsin on vacation.
