  1. I agree that this is a huge loss as Gary's relaxed attitude and strong work ethic made him an incredible man in my eyes. I was hoping to get another jump with him but that will have to wait. I am deeply saddened by this news however, I will always remember Muppet the way he was and I am grateful I got to know him a little bit and that he is in my video! Thanks for helping me become the skydiver I am today and Blue Skies Gary! Life doesn't come with a rewind button. Live with no regrets! ~ Ed Bishop
  2. I have been jumping here for the last 1 3/4 years and have been amazed at the depth of knowledge of the people that have so much more experience than me. There are 4 riggers with all of the answers I need about equipment, packing and I never have sat out a weekend because my reserve didn't get packed in time. Thanks!!!
  3. It's not for me to comment on the name but that should be resolved soon we hope. For now, it's called skydive now atlanta. www.skydivenowatlanta.com

  6. Is it the Walton county airport in Monroe, almost downtown? If not, can anyone tell me how to get there? Life doesn't come with a rewind button. Live with no regrets! ~ Ed Bishop
  7. It was nice to meet you at the fitz boogie but I think it has changed. It's the only airport I can find in Monroe. The Walton county Airport? http://www.airnav.com/airport/D73 It's solely selfish on my part for not wanting to drive 2.5 hours each way to jump but I am finding myself more exhausted from the drive than jumping all day.

  8. Ok. I hear the rumors and I saw the article in the paper and perhaps I showed up at the wrong airport on Saturday after some jumps at Skydive Atlanta. But, The two times I showed up at the airport in Monroe, it has been locked up like a prison and I can't see any half hangers or any broken ground? Can someone get in touch with me and let me know if I am even going to the right place? I would love to volunteer to help out and be involved as well as be directed to the right place in Monroe.

  9. I am new to the Area and live in Athens, I would love for Monroe to Re-open because of the distance to the other DZ's even though I like them both for different reasons. I would be at Monroe every Weekend. Life doesn't come with a rewind button. Live with no regrets! ~ Ed Bishop
  10. I will be there friday night late and looking forward to a fun day of jumping! Ed Life doesn't come with a rewind button. Live with no regrets! ~ Ed Bishop
