vanderwi 0 #1 August 6, 2009 Does anyone know if there is a good place to do a hot air balloon jump in Boston? Or a helicopter jump? Thanks! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pilotdave 0 #2 August 6, 2009 There'll be an R-44 helicopter at Pepperell, MA during their CASA boogie next week (thurs and fri, aug 13-14). $50 a jump. Dave Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vanderwi 0 #3 August 6, 2009 Yeah--In CO there are some hot air balloon operators that charge <$100 for balloon jumps..Just wondering if anyone knows of someone in Boston who allows the same thing? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skyjumpsteve 0 #4 August 6, 2009 Hot air balloon jumps in New England are unfortunately not common at all. I heard of a few years ago but none in recent memory. As Dave said there is a helicopter at the Pepperrell boogie August 12 thru the 16'th. There is a post in the events forum with more info on the boogie.

vanderwi 0 #5 August 6, 2009 I'll check it out....are there helicopter pilots in the community that allow helo jumps often? Or is it just a special event kind of thing? Thanks for the help, even though it's sad news... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
