tonybrogdon 0 #1 October 2, 2004 here's a picture of one of three Hang Dives made over the Perris DZ. I am the third back from the cockpit on the wing. We began decending and climbing out at 11500 and ran off at about 5 grand. We landed just before Scott Raod off 215. This picture is hanging in the Perris' Bar's Restaurant.Tony Brogdon D-12855 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jbrasher 0 #16 October 12, 2004 Well, were there's a will there's a way :-) Look in the Galleries under my name: JBrasher on top: 1st is one of the cops (my mind fails me) 2nd: T-Bird 3rd Cliff Chema 4th: ? 5th: ME 6th: Thundercloud 7th: Dave Scaradick on wing: another cop (pleasse forgive me guys) 2nd: Mike Wheeler 3rd: ? 4th: Tom Sanders in door: Sharon Chema In my position I could have read the Sunday funnies there was so little wind. The big guys in the front took the brunt. On the wing the first picture in the series had them at the pilot's window; after a few minutes or so they had been moved back to were you see them in this picture. Exits were a piece of cake except the horizontal stablizer went by kind a close. A fun time was had by all. Until I can figure out how to reduce the file size you can see it there.

flyingferret 0 #18 November 4, 2004 Anyone know what the chances are of ever doing that on a Twin Beech these days? I always thought the pics were awesome, although I have read some hairy stall tales. Are any TBs still flying? Any with pilots that would do it?-- All the flaming and trolls of wreck dot with a pretty GUI. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
darkwing 4 #19 November 4, 2004 I'm pretty sure there is at least one twin beech flying these days. There was a very nice one at Lost Prairie a couple of years ago. I think it came out of Oregon. I've been in a stalling Beech, it was seriously not fun. Plenty of injuries, but we all lived. I think I was the only person not bleeding. In the old days we were pretty accustomed to the near-stall signs on jumprun... The tail would start oscillating. That meant time to go. -- Jeff My Skydiving History Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
upndownshop 0 #20 November 8, 2004 Does any one remember the poster that had the caption" some flights might be over booked". I believe it had 23 outside. It is buried in my parents attic. I have had it since I was a kid. Who and where was that? I am pretty sure it was Ca. just not sure. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EricTheRed 0 #21 November 10, 2004 That was ours www.skydivetoledo.com Unfortunately it isn't flying now but it is a really cool ride. It is for sale (used to be listed in the classifieds here) We have a turbine 207 now, cheaper to run, faster climb, but not nearly as much funillegible usually Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was a jumpship uintil a year or two back when the DZO got religion and turned the hangar into a church. Guess it didn't do him much good, last I heard he got himself severly bent a few months back after his cropduster crashed. -Blind"If you end up in an alligator's jaws, naked, you probably did something to deserve it."

Maybe there is a higher power. The T.B. I saw at lost praire befor Mr Hill graciously supplied most of the airplanes, was a sweet bird, painted brown, the pilots name was elevator. First time I met him he was a excelent pilot with a well maintained "classic" airplane. Ted Mayfields plane was at L.P. it had been a T.B. and converted to a trailwind? a twin bo with a single verticle stabilizer same engines leaked oil like a pig. R.i.P. R.I.P. R.I.P.
