Vapor 0 #3 November 10, 2004 Where indeed? Also, if there's a sufficient volume of people by then, will the price go down? ---------------------------------------- 'Of course it hurts. The trick is not *minding* that it hurts.' - T.E. Lawrence Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jceman 1 #6 November 10, 2004 QuoteWhere indeed? Also, if there's a sufficient volume of people by then, will the price go down? Don't count on the price going down no matter the number of jumpers. I'm pretty sure it is the Collings Foundation's B17, the same one that attends WFFC as they are the only B17 I know of that will allow jumping. It costs almost $3500-4000 per hour to fly and can take a max of 10 jumpers per load. Al that said, the experience of flying in that plane and exiting from the bomb bay is quite an experience; if you can scrape the money together, do it. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money. Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
