[clustermagnet 0]

Guys, as the weather forecast SUX for this weekend (NYC area)... I am thinking of having a little road trip ! :)

Any suggestions ? Yes, Z Hills, etc :) I know...

Any recommendations on close travel (less than 10 hours), where planes are big, and weather is good? :)

Blue Skies!

Absolutely, but it's not working for me for some reason. Will try to figure it out

East of NY there are only a handful of turbines within a 10 hour drive, I'd look at going down the coast. A really good option would be Jumptown since its got the tunnel right there to go to around jumping also. If New England is weathered out also I'd look south at Raeford in NC for the same thing.

By "tunnel right there" you mean after about a 40 minute drive, right? Pepperell is closer to the tunnel (10 mins) and has an Otter. However the weather in both places (Pepperell and Orange) will be crappy this weekend, it appears.

There I was thinking that you couldn't drive east of NY at all;)

Come to the Ranch! We have the Pond swoop meet this WE so even if the weather sucks, the party will be awesome!

Sorry, ment west. I've driven east to NYC too many times.

With crap weather in New England head to Raeford and the tunnel!

Guys, it looks like I am better off traveling to Ohio :)

Reading up on the dropzone locator :)

Any zone one would recommend?

THANKS!!!

If you want to jump a Turbine this weekend in Ohio there are only two options. Start Skydiving and Aerohio. Both are running Caravan's, Start is running 2 and Aerohio has 1.
