  1. Since the devalue of the Peso, there have been changes to this DZ. First there is no longer a Twin Otter... Was sold and now is in Canada. The DZ caters to Tandems all morning. And the few fun jumpers that show up. Manifest is determine on the number of students there are. I was only able to make one skydive. In a Cessna 205 to 10.000ft for the price of $40usd. Disappointed there was no Otter. There are no Turbine aircraft in Argentina!!! The closest turbine is in San Paulo, Brazil. And they have a Cessna 208 Caravan. Jumps are not cheap there either. This was going to be a skydiving vacation for me, but the situation has made this a sighting vacation. Not a big fan of slow aircraft. But this place is great if you are a student..... Some fun jumpers might like it, but have patience.
  2. Your taking the name out of context, you might want to look up the word "variable".... and sharpen that tool before you take it out of the shed.
  3. Thanks Chrisky of Germany, that info helps.
  4. I've been lucky too no injuries yet. But isn't why most of us do this. Its a high risk sport and if breaking your big toe is the worst that happens, your golden... Life is a risk, just manage it. not trying to tell you not to be safe or anything like that. If your thinking about it that much you might want to try golf.
  5. Does anybody out there know anything about Perforance Variable's Cayenne main? Or if you have one tell me what you think of it, please be objective.
  6. I'm in the market for a high performane main. If I go with a low wind load 1.5 how would that effect conopy in terms of approach angles, turns and overall handleing of a main designed for high wing loads.
