tunnelfly 0 #3 October 11, 2005 The worlds best wind tunnel is the one next door to your home, where they know you well and, even on a fully booked day, you can just show up after work and they manage to squeeze you in for a couple of rotations. But if you are just talking about size, speed, smoothness and convenience, you probably have to go to bedford. No.1 reason NOT to be an astronaut: ...You can't drink beer at zero gravity...

flyangel2 2 #4 October 12, 2005 I'm lost, I have no idea what those letters stand for in your pollMay your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view.

Bodyflight.Net 0 #9 October 12, 2005 I've flown some in 5 of the 8 tunnels listed... another one I will have flown within the next month or so.. I agree with Tunnefly... the BEST tunnel is near your home and considers you part of the family. I don't think there is a fair way to answer this poll... because BEST is a subjective thing.. like beauty is in the eye of the beholder... it really matters what you are looking at.. each of these listed is the worlds best wind tunnel, each brings JOY to others lives, each makes it possible to expand our minds, each are inviting to their home crowd and each serve us dutifully. Since I can't choose multiple answers, there isn't a fair way for me to give my opinion. Good luck on your quest... try them out.. you be the judge!

Paige 0 #10 October 12, 2005 How can you choose just one?!?!?! I love every tunnel I have visited (& fly at regularly) but I'm strange in that regard. They all have the "best" something. The fun part is finding out all those something's for each place. What's is the world's best wind tunnel? The one: you call home you fly the most who's staff you know & help you out closest to you you have the most fun at you visit and fall in love withTunnel Pink Mafia Delegate www.TunnelPinkMafia.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Paige 0 #11 October 12, 2005 Here are the abreviations I went with on the TPM calendar and site. Just food for thought I know they are a little different than the Bodyflight Network site but they just came from my crazy head so I'm sure that explains it. SVO= SkyVenture Orlando SVP= SkyVenture Perris SVAZ= SkyVenture AZ SVUK= Airkix SVCO= SkyVenture Colorado SVNH= SkyVenture New Hampshire FA LV = Flyaway Las Vegas FA PF= Flyaway Pigeon Forge AAC= Appalachian Amusement Center LFTD= Lifted Entertainment VV= Vertical Velocity VR= VR Skydiving BB= Bodyflight Bedford (I was coming up short on this till now)Tunnel Pink Mafia Delegate www.TunnelPinkMafia.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

riddler 0 #17 October 12, 2005 QuoteGuess that would be difficult to say unless someone had flown in all the tunnels listed. We're working on it, dammit! I've only flown two tunnels, but I would say that the "best" one is where you learn the most and have the most fun. The difference is really getting a dedicated coach - training with a good coach in any tunnel will get you more learning and better overall experience than training in any other tunnel without a coach. Also helps to go with friends that you know for fun. And I didn't answer your poll because I haven't been to all the tunnels.Trapped on the surface of a sphere.
