So ...
... you want to jump out of a perfectly good airplane!
Well, I am going to start the inquiry. I checked the cost of this, it will be $200 roughly. There is a place by Elsinore where they teach you how to sky dive. There are some restrictions: You must be 18 years old and a maximum weight of 230 lbs. for tandem and 225 lbs. for AFF.
Sooo, who would be in!

More than one pilot has told me "Why jump out of a perfectly good airplane?"
I can't think of one reason so count me out.

Although I do just make the min. age requirements of 18, I dont have a wish to die at 18!(Even if I did, I can think of several more fun ways to die than falling out of a perfectly good plane for "fun" then splating into the ground knowing theres nothing I can do, short of growing wings!) So sorry-plus my mom would never forgive you!

No f***ing way. I'm chicken. I'll stick to 12 sec /110+ runs anyday. I turn 48 tommorrow and have all the thrills I can handle. Jeff

Are you certified? I used to know a guy that was certified to be an instructor, he had alot of hours on "his belt".
So, we only have three brave souls?
Come on, you only live once. :sillylol:

You know Kevin, in West Hollywood the rates are cheaper due to the competition, and if you cut it back to only once
or twice a week then you can save enough money to make the skydive, or at least that's what Madmax volunteered
