ntrprnr 0 #1 August 8, 2007 Was looking up on nyc.gov to get a permit application for my new metal detector (coolest. gift. ever.) when I found this: (e) Aviation No person shall voluntarily bring, land or cause to alight within or upon any park, any airplane, balloon, parachute, hang glider, or other aerial device, except that certain areas may be designated appropriate landing places for medical evacuation helicopters. For the purposes of this subdivision (e), voluntarily shall mean anything other than a forced landing caused by mechanical or structural failure of the aircraft or other aerial device. Oh well. :)_______________ "Why'd you track away at 7,000 feet?" "Even in freefall, I have commitment issues." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oh well. :) That sucks the big one. I was hanging out with a couple of jumpers from here last weekend and suggested that we NYC skydivers organize a boogie in Central Park. We could coordinate with the authorities to have a chopper take off from the 59th St. Heliport on the east side, and do jumps from 5K into Sheep's Meadow from morning until sundown. If only we could somehow convince Mayor Bloomberg that this is a good idea ... Be humble, ask questions, listen, learn, follow the golden rule, talk when necessary, and know when to shut the fuck up.

airtwardo 6 #14 August 8, 2007 http://www.metronyballoonfest.com/t-eventextreme.aspx The Long Island Balloon & Music Festival is going this weekend, I just happen to know a jumper or two on the demo team jumping into it. Maybe you could talk them into an extra pass over your place during the climb out! ~ If you choke a Smurf, what color does it turn? ~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
