Essentially I have been lead to believe the answer is no, it won't be done.

At least I haven't heard anything new and I am in Eloy almost every weekend.

The wind tunnel is on track to open mid-January for testing, with it opening to the public Feb 1.
The delay was due to bureaucratic red tape Unsure

I'll keep you posted as things progress.

Yeah, that's what delayed the Perris tunnel in 2003. Unsure

Good luck, and yes please keep us informed! Smile

Since you said "we", that indicates you are an employee of the future Arizona tunnel. There is NO advertising in this forum....Chuck

I didn't get to read what you posted, and I apologize to both you and to Chuckie for even asking the question. Sorry, I wasn't thinking.

No problem, Rosa; just PM the guy now that you know he works there. And to Axel: don't sweat it either. Just know that you are free to advertise all you like in the classifieds here on this site.

I can't wait to fly in it Smile

But I'm sure you already knew that. This year the Holiday Boogie is a must for me. I'm sure my tunnel rat partner in crime will join as well. U still planning on heading out there again? Maybe I can get some tunnel time when you are down here before we get a few jumps in.

Is this picture from Feb of This year or Feb of last year ?? If it is this year, I don't see how they could possibly be anywhere near opening in Feb (as they were originally predicting) if it is feb last year, well.. they need to update their website :)
