| Another place i'd love to visit .. Get myself a big lump of cash together and visit Las Vegas, do some tunnel and gamble away on The Strip .. 
Would this tunnel be worth a shot? Great staff is always a plus!

| Flyaway Vegas is MUCH better than the Pigeon Forge version Vegas is ALOT faster, a bit wider, with much cleaner air and much more bright inside for starters. The staff is very much fun and high spirited. Last time I flew there I used both a large suit, and then I changed to sweats, because that's the best way to fly when you have enough air! Although I didn't have an airspeed indicator, my best guess at an airspeed from my experience would be around 110-115mph easy! Definitely worth a trip. As with the other Flyaway, get there first & fly till it's hot.. then come back tomorrow Here's some pics from my last visit: http://www.bodyflight.net/flyaway_indoor_skydiving_las_v.html

| Vegas, Hell yeah!!!
I have spent a lot of time in this tunnel. It is an absolute blast. Faster than Pigeon Forge, and off the walls are fair game. ALL on staff in vegas are really good people. I can't wait to go back! I think about it all the time!
Oh yeah, and I have to mention for those die hards out there this tunnel is without a doubt a huge part of VWT history. It was actually the 1st of the 2 flyaway tunnels to be operational, and has loads of good stories with it, you need to check it out!

| | HEY RUSTY! Wow.. how long has it been? A couple of years at least! SO GOOD to see you out here and about.... have you flown any lately? Love for you to visit us at AAC as well on your next trip down, you'll have a blast! ANYWAY.. If you didn't know, Keith Fields and his brother Chris purchased Flyaway Las Vegas from Gary and they are now the sole owners of the facility. Keith has brought got himself a really great staff together and things are going very well. The long term future is still up in the air I believe but for now it's "business as usual". Give them a shout and head on out, I'm sure they'll be GLAD to see you  Talk soon man, and oh.. send me some pics for photo of the week, I know you have some good classics available.
