diverdriver 5 #2 January 28, 2004 Come in late July, early August. Swing through Chicago and hand at Skydive Chicago. It's also a hop, skip, and a jump from the WFFC in Rantoul. Spend some days there. And you can also enjoy the SummerFest boogie at SDC same time.Chris Schindler www.diverdriver.com ATP/D-19012 FB #4125 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks I am sure you will get a variety of opinions - but for the best guarantee of "jumpable" days, Eloy, AZ is really hard to beat. I think they have something like 340 jumpable days out of 365. A Caravan, Two Twin Otters, a DC 3, and great coaching. SkyDive Arizona is pretty top shelf - Also, very large area of land outs if need be with no fences, trees, etc... Hot in the summer months, but Florida can be very oppressive in June/July as well. Drop zone is closed down on Tuesdays and Wednesdays June/July I believe - I was just there in December, and am going back in Feb - generally a great group of folks there - TOM "The helicopter approaches closer than any other to fulfillment of mankind's ancient dreams of a magic carpet" - Igor Sikorsky Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stupid mistake - Yes, Skyvan - But only ever saw two Twin Otters. Was not aware of the third...
