Do these DZs charge more than $20USD per day? I've got 3 DZs in close proximity that only charge $20/day.My reality and yours are quite different. I think we're all Bozos on this bus.

DZ_EPHESUS_TR 0 #7 December 4, 2005 That will be perfect.Till now I have jumped with Drakkar 300 , BOC. I don't think it will be a problem Javelin with PD or Falcon as the WL will be less than .0.75. I will give you a call or PM you before I arrive there. In reply to ''popsjumper'': The cheapest I found in Orlando is 44 Usd daily unfortunately.In my home DZ ( Ephesus-Izmir-Turkey ) it is 3 USD per jump.

PhreeZone 14 #10 December 4, 2005 $20 per day is rare. $20 per jump is much more common. Its hard to pay off the rental gear at $20 per day.Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Superman32 0 #12 December 4, 2005 Tenting, while not the most comfortable of accommodations, it its the best way to guarantee, you'll be there for the the first (dummy) load and to be there as the last beer bottle is finished, without having to worry about driving.

I really meant $20/JUMP What a bone head. Now, everyone please disregard my previous post ... *hanging head in shame*My reality and yours are quite different. I think we're all Bozos on this bus.
