Recommended Posts

Nice!

Kirk,... I really think that this tunnel will be packed during the summer... and of course the rest of the year!
I'm so glad that I will be only few hrs away from it.

thx for the updates

When we can, we try and train at a tunnel next to a DZ (Eloy or Lake Wales, have been what we did in the past) but when home we use AAC when we can. It is not nearly as much as we want. I did get 8 hours last year in AAC.

We have been able to "two's and fews" through Bragg with other teams.

And are planning on a joint trip with the Local SF ODA's.

Not sure if that would be a good thing, I'm known to tan naked on the roof of the team house every once in a while;)

Its circular and is only three pieces so there is only one seam on the viewing side.

Kirk are you in charge of the construction / business side of the new tunnel or both?

I just sent an email to the email alias from your website, and addressed it to Tim. Anyway if someone could take a look at the email and let me know.

I'm very anxious to start flying in the tunnel. It's been 9 months since my accident and I'm no where close to returning to skydiving. But the TUNNEL, well I'm ready for that. 2 Months is sooner than it sounds. Man am I gettin excited.
