......32 Birds so far

So we are now looking at running two aircraft formations ( Casa & Otter ) and NOT splitting the loads?

Right?

The Otter, The Casa, and their three 206s.

anyone exiting the casa slow will be pushed out! and not necessarily with the group.

Where is my fizzy-lifting drink?

The Otter, The Casa, and their three 206s

So the plan is...send up the 206 with a load at 8.00 a.m., send the connecting Casa at 9:30, and send the Otter at 9:40 for a 9:50 jump? Poor guys in the 206.

We will be doing mutliple groups based on experience. adding the newer birds to the bigger flock once they are refreshed and more importantly, SAFE. I am planning a formation load at least on sat and sun. we will see what we have to work with then go from there. My first goal, is the 25 way perfect diamond. I KNOW WE CAN GET IT!!!!!

p.s. i am writing this from Lauterbrunnen Switzerland. Jeff tony phil and myself made nice jumps from the heli. 12000 foot exit, nice jump then cliff swoop before deploy. we are off to Marl to compete. wish us luck.

Depending on which 206 it is, it wlll either climb as well as or faster than the Otter. The fast one did an impressive job as the chase plane for the History Channel taping. Dunno how the CASA fits into the mix.
Of the two remaining 206s, one is at another DZ, and the other is on summer vacation, so not likely to be there.

is anyone driving from Boston to Pepperell on Thu morning?
PM me if you care to give me a ride.

[matto765 0]

I was wondering what lodging is available in the Pepperell area during the boogie. I'm a huge slacker and am finally getting around to booking my flight today. Are most people camping at the DZ or are there some hotels nearby that a lot of people are staying at?

Motel 6 is close, it's not the Ritz, but it a bed.

The Holiday Inn just up the road (about 7 mins) is very nice, rates in the sub 100.00 range, and very good breakfasts... they had several rooms avail as of this morning. Call and speak directly to Thomas. If they try to send you to their reservations center, dont' let them. Call back if you have to. No one at their reservations system speaks English very well, and they don't even know their own properties. Booking with the local people is easier, and you know what you're getting.

[skyjumpsteve 0]

Danny, glad you are going to make it!. As Spot and Scott posted Motel 6 and Holiday Inn are both fine are are the same distance (about 10 mins) from the DZ. Some people do camp at the DZ but truthfully I think you'll be a lot happier if you shell out a few bucks for a hotel room. I think Motel 6 is about $55-$60. See you this weekend.

[pdj6p 0]

I will be arriving in manchester about 9:40am on thursday. If anyone could give me a ride to the DZ please let me know.

Death is so permanant, and I'm just not ready for that kind of committment.

Three more. See you thursday!

Birds:

I arrive Manchester, N.H. on Southwest Airlines at 7:00 p.m.

New to this DZ, not sure of the area, thought it was safe just to go ahead and rent a car. Car only cost $66.00 but the fees are $40.00! Go figure.

Anyway got my room at the motel 6 so if anybody wants to split the car for ease of getting back to motel 6 to crash let me know; save our money for the jump tix!

[skyjumpsteve 0]

Today didn't suck! The "Casa-less" boogie turned into the Casa boogie when the big bird finally came in mid-afternoon after some delays in the Carolinas. We have 36 wingsuiters here and more showing up tomorrow. Did some great jumps today including a beautiful sunset formation load. The weather has been phenomenal and tomorrow looks to be the same. First jump tomorrow is a free load courtesy of Tony Suits.....definitely looking forward to the rest of the weekend.

[DSE 5]

Today didn't suck. We split into two groups. Was a blast to see the results of Phil's group and the larger group come together for a successful 40 way at the end of the day.
Highlight of the day was the evening meal cooked by Jeff and Amy, the presentation of the "special" T-shirt from Scotty Burns to Justin Shorb. The entire video will be released soon unless Justin pays me a lot of money to keep it hushed.
We'll also air the video of Purple Mike taking his rig and wingsuit on and off in the aircraft to fix a packing error that resulted in him riding the airplane back down. But...he smiled through the whole incident.

See attached photo of today's end.
