Yes, we are building another one windtunnel straight near the existing one. :)
We are expecting the opening late Spring 2009.
Here are some pictures from my Facebook account.

Good luck!

Two tunnels - a 12 footer and a 16.5 footer sharing the same carpark. Amazing!

Great staff at Freezone - I can't wait to see the new tunnel.

The aerotuba tunnel will be 4.1 meters in diameter, so this must be a different tunnel since its gonna be 16.5 feet

It looks like theres gonna be 3 tunnels..

Word on the street is that the prices for the new tunnel will be very similar to the 12ft tunnel - does anyone have any indication of prices yet? (and a completion date of course!).

This tunnel is for sure on my "to-do" list Cool

For now we don't have any prices yet. The approx. opening date will be during Spring 2009, as i said in the beginning Smile

.

Today we got first 3 containers with parts of the tunnel. The basement walls are 3/4 complete. Later today i will post any current pics.

"Who" is building the tunnel ?
One of the 2 majors (Skyventure / Bodyflight) or another ?

That's the Skyventure's tunnel similar to Raeford's. Skyventure is only seller of the kit. The construction is making by the same group of investors.

Yes, it is.

with the pieces that were built for our tunnel ?? Unimpressed

oh well... not complaining, would just have preferred that the tunnel was first built at 30 minutes drive from home, rather than at a 4h flying distance...

By the way. All these pieces are already on the place. Wink

And the construction team is waiting for the next week to start building up the skeleton. Wink

So... Please, be patient a little bit more... Cool

It will probably be easier to move your home closer to the tunnel!?

I can´t wait to fly in the new tunnel. The Freezone staff rocks and the facilities are second to none! I have nine hours in the existing tunnel so far and I am definitely going back for more! I think that everyone should join me ;-)

See you soon Ivan
