Best Sunset Jumps

Recommended Posts

Several years ago at the Lost Prairie Boogie my wife and I did the 12.5K hop and pop, cross country sunset load. There were 3 layers of scattered clouds below and around us, all lit up gold, orange, and pink as we sailed back to the DZ. Those glowing clouds and the natural beauty of Montana made it one of the prettiest sunset loads I've done. B|

Eloy, Sunset high pull over the desert. I really wish I had a camera but I had just above 100 jumps at the point.

So I have memories of those breathtaking views!
I'm standing on the edge
With a vision in my head
My body screams release me
My dreams they must be fed... You're in flight.

I agree with John. Lost Prairie Saturday night sunset load is one of the best. Before they paved the runway it would be the DC-3, Skyvan, and a couple of Otters. Along with a formation flyby in the days before gopros and facebook. They wrecked the fire tower flybys too.

If the plane is unrecoverable then exiting is a very very good idea.
