kevin922 0 #1 August 28, 2002 So I finally found some DZs near Zurich... don't know what my luck will be communicating with the locals, but their website says jump prices are 39 CHF to 3'800 meters.. how many feet is that? Anyone know how much money that is too? :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seedy 0 #2 August 28, 2002 One meter equals 39" so it figures to 12350 feet I intend to live forever -- so far, so good. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wingnut 0 #4 August 28, 2002 kev, standard jump altitude in europe is between 3-4k meters..... if i remeber corectly my jumps from 3,5k were about 11k feet. and from 4k it was around 12,000 feet.....and the exchange rate to swiss francs from u.s dollars is normally around 1.5francs to the dollar.....but i've seen it up around 1.7 before.....if your in the colorado springs area i still have 50 francs i'll sellya for a real good exch rate....have fun.... ______________________________________ "i have no reader's digest version" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
