Is there any landing pattern information that you can pass along now? - David It will be the same noodle arrow system we used last year. There is actually 2 landing areas, 1 per plane. The S&TA is working on the flier as we speak. Should have it soon. Basically you land in the direction of the arrow, once turned on final you should not cross over it. Land parallel to it in same direction it is pointing. Thanks for asking Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Papaer work for registration has been greatly reduced. Of course this is the first time we have tried this so guess we will find out. SkyFest doesn't do "boogie bags" but wait till you see what we have this year! More updates coming as I get the final words. thanks all Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Woo Hoo!!!!!I still want a balloon jump though To help Jay out a bit, yes there is sort of seprate landing areas for HP landing....the Swoop pond is a ways away from the main landing area. Also last time i was there.....the beer line was also for HP landing. Now that being said, like Jay stated earlier, lets be safe.....just because you set up for a HP landing, lower jumper still has the right of way....dont think just because you set up for it you are committed to a 270. Also, on another note, I will be offering my video services while there. So if your doing a special jump that you would like video and still of, please look me up. I dont charge much...slot and a small fee to cover my pack job and a drink later in the night.

I will have an aerial tonight to post more details. But the casa and Pac will land across the runway along with HP landing area. Otter to land in main landing area, NO HP landings, nothing more than 90 in any main area (this includes the casa and pac). The pond will be open but you must have authorization first. More to come with details this evening. And sunny NC it will be!!!! thanks again J Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
