Stuntbabex 0 #2 March 6, 2008 I believe tickets now went up to $25. Thats why Ive been jumping at elsinore lately ($24). Yeah I know, the dollar makes a huge difference. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nutz 0 #3 March 6, 2008 Where I jump the price just went up to $23.00. The DZO said if we could convince the airport to give him free fuel then he would give us free jumps. Everyone call the airport manager and see how fast we can get kicked off. "Don't! Get! Eliminated!" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think for what you get, Perris is worth the extra buck. Besides, their overhead has to be higher. Anyway, both Perris and Elsinore have discounted blocks of tickets for $1000. elsinore also offers a $500 package and both DZ's now offer blocks of hop & pop tickets as well (for canopy swoopers, I guess).

ChrisL 2 #8 March 13, 2008 I wouldn't grumble too much. The formerly awesome fleet at Cross Keys (Skyvan, Otter, Caravan, Porter, and Helicopter) seems to have been reduced to a single Cessna 182__ My mighty steed Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhreeZone 15 #9 March 13, 2008 I knew the Skyvan had timed out but where did the rest of the planes go for Cross Keys?Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
divrdave 0 #10 March 14, 2008 QuoteI wouldn't grumble too much. The formerly awesome fleet at Cross Keys (Skyvan, Otter, Caravan, Porter, and Helicopter) seems to have been reduced to a single Cessna 182 You're kidding, right? When I was last at X-Keys a couple of years ago, they had a Skyvan, two Super Otters, two Caravans, a Porter, a PAC-750, a helicopter, and a biplane and they were literally doing 200+ tandems a day. How on earth did a DZ of that size turn into a single 182 DZ in less than two years? I can't imagine they're still doing 200 tandems a day out of the 182.

ladydyver 0 #11 March 14, 2008 The otter is down in sebastian....or at least it was in January.DPH # 2 "I am not sure what you are suppose to do with that, but I don't think it is suppose to flop around like that." ~Skootz~ I have a strong regard for the rules.......doc!

ChrisL 2 #12 March 14, 2008 Quote I knew the Skyvan had timed out but where did the rest of the planes go for Cross Keys? Yeah the skyvan just ran out of time. I think the otter is down south and will hopefully be back soon. All the rest of them who knows? Porter been gone a long time. Had a King Air for a bit but that seems to be gone. Dont know where the helo went but I didnt see it fly at all in the past year and havent seen the caravans for a long time. The 2nd Otter was from another DZ and if there was ever a PAC-750 there it was also from another DZ. Cross keys never owned one. I never saw them do 200 tandems in a day They have had nothing but a C-182 flying for quite some time...__ My mighty steed Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dirtpoorpacking 0 #13 March 14, 2008 well if you think about it that one dollar does make a difference cuz a pack job is 5 so if you do 5 jumps here then you buy a pack job then you get 5 jumps and one pack job but if you jump at perris you only get 5 jump for the same priceCCCCUUUTTTAWAY Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
michalm21 0 #14 March 14, 2008 Yup, it's only 182 for cold winter months. We were doing 150+ tandems a day on weekends last summer so it's not that bad. Flying 2 Otters (or one sometimes) AFAIK, Heli is gone, Skyvan is gone (but may be back in the future), Caravan is broken and I belive will be sold. Biplane is getting a new engine built, Porter is coming back and the Otter is in FL (I think) but is coming back. So this year should not be that bad . We will probably have 2 Otters (and a Porter?)
