kpinnc 17,629 #1 Posted yesterday at 01:09 AM Just joking of course. I'd love to be up there with them. Not sure I'd do touch and goes in random fields they way they do, but fun to watch. I was running my compressor and didn't hear them in time to get great pics, but this is my back yard. 7 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I agree in principle but jumping outta perfectly good flying machines was never on my list. 8 hours ago, JCM said: One of my favorite things to do on a Saturday or Sunday morning was to fire up the Dual Sport bike and head over to Sky Dive New England to watch the action. @kpinnc Jimbo. You run down to my mom's place and set right on the front porch. The Orange Airport 🛫 is right down the road. One of the busiest Jump towns around. We can watch the planes and parachutes right there too. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Perfectly good just means not on fire, functioning on it's own power and right side up. But yeah, I agree with you. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
