SansSuit 1 #1 March 19, 2015 Looking for road trip ideas. This year's theme is different jump aircraft. I'd like to add some new aircraft to my logbook. Who will be jumping something other than the usual dropzone fleet this year?Peace, -Dawson. http://www.SansSuit.com The Society for the Advancement of Naked Skydiving Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Way cool. but I'm afraid that's a little more road than we are looking for in the road trip.

I think it's really cool how you track this, tail numbers, etc. If you do find something cool nearby I might be up for a day/road trip :) -IsaacChance favors the prepared mind.

Remster 24 #10 March 23, 2015 megamalfunctionSkydive Dallas usually has a DC-3 for their American Revolution Boogie, and I believe Skydive Arizona has a balloon. Yep. Ballon all "winter" long. I think May (or is it Easter???) is the end of the season for Burner and his balloons. Also, SDAZ flies it's DC3 at most of it's larger boogies. They used to fly the Beech 18 at xmas too. Can't believe people thing the B18 is a novelty aircraft... lol PS: except for the balloon, all the rides on SDAZ's fleet are regular price tickets.Remster Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
galispo 0 #12 March 24, 2015 That's a wonderful list! I also have this goal of trying as many different aircraft as I can, but my experience is just a fraction of yours so far. I'm curious, where and when was your jump from the Super Constellation? Any pictures to show us?Rob Gallo "To strive, to seek, to find and not to yield."

They had a Connie fly a couple years at the Convention. That's where I jumped it Remster Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This was at the World Free Fall Convention, Quincy, Illinois in 1997. Eleven of the above were aircraft that I only jumped once each at the convention.
