nacmacfeegle 0 #2 April 22, 2004 Not just any old Porter, thats reportedly the world's most powerful Porter.

nacmacfeegle 0 #4 April 22, 2004 Hmmm, a road trip to Cockerham is do-able. Its certainly more attractive than the long haul down to Nethers.

fatmarl 0 #13 April 22, 2004 Quote £16 to 15,000 You sure about that Beth? It was £17 the last time it was there 2 years ago. Having said that, it was worth every penny - it is without doubt the nicest Porter I've ever jumped Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skymatt 0 #14 April 27, 2004 Jump pricing for the Porter visit is yet to be confirmed. Ian's right, last time we had F-GODZ visit it was £17 per lift and we were getting 15,000'. I guess BKPC will announce nearer the time but I doubt it will be the regular £16 we pay to go to 10,000' in G-BKPC. Still, I don't mind paying a little more for 50% more altitude! Roll on July!

yoink 321 #15 April 27, 2004 I'm there... Porter and a smashed Beth... gonna be so cool. I think Chris Lynch is holding a Wingtips course there at the same time too... time off work methinks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BethUK 0 #16 April 27, 2004 Sorry!! I Stand corrected! Im not fussed paying extra either...I love that plane and 50% extra altitude is gonna be sweeeet!!!! Plus I will probably have been jumping it for 2 weeks extra time in Gap directly before it comes to BKs!! WOOOHOOOO!!!!! Bring it on!!!

blackknights 0 #17 April 27, 2004 QuoteI love that plane and 50% extra altitude is gonna be sweeeet!!!! Agreed!F-GODZ Godzilla certainly is a monster jump ship; I've never been in anything that gets you to altitude as fast - free ear popping with every lift! Plus the view through that huge panoramic see through door is fantastic... Matt Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nacmacfeegle 0 #18 April 27, 2004 50% more altitude, nope, its better than that if you think about air time.... 7,000 ft of freefall vs 12,000 ft of freefall.-------------------- He who receives an idea from me, receives instruction himself without lessening mine; as he who lights his taper at mine, receives light without darkening me.
