J-man: isn't it early to ask shoe sizes ? Why not wait until winner is determined ?


I didn't enter contest, have enough sneakers. Nice of you to offer contest ( personally) ,though.

Did you jump ?

Cost, No not really , hopefully under a nickel, or about that for 2 ??? I'd guess a nickel for 2. Never checked it out. I wouldn't pay a dime to risk my life, I would expect over $150 pp, maybe $300 pp.

On second thought probably more than a Vegas helicopter ride to Grand Canyon. I'll guess $300 pp. I could be way low, likely am low, everything costs more than you think it should !

You should be able to find this info on net. It seems like you are maybe somewhere around DC, Virginia area, if I read you right.

GL.

J-man: I don't think $200 will suffice. I know this much... You have to get some class-time in, packing and deploying and re-packing chute will cost some, the aircraft, retrieval, time, insurance by operator, administrative costs, etc. I'll guess about a dozen jump max.

I doubt you get this for $200.

I'm looking at it as a business. ... I open up ACME SKYJUMPING. I need a plane ( of some sort ), a pilot, equipment, overhead costs covered, instructors ( coaches ?), insurance, and a PROFIT.

I doubt I can accomplish this at $200 a head, therefore I say it likely costs more. Weather conditions may prevent from me holding jumps for several days... too windy, rainy, etc.

The more I think about it ... from the other side... the more I doubt it's $200. I haven't looked up rates... no cheating !

I conclude by saying this has to be expensive ( $800 a head ? ). $200 seems low IMO, how much is a bungee jump, from a crane ? ( $ 50 ?)

I smell a rat here. I don't question J-man will provide the shoes/ sneakers. Will they be lime-green or something ? Maybe I'm too cynical ?

I believe there is a string attached to this. He's got something funny up his sleeve ? Perhaps not ! :aktion033 .
