Just for fun and because my boss hasn't given me too many tasks today at work, I figured this would be fun:

(Q) What has been the hardest skill for you to master in the tunnel so far?

(A) In belly flying, over-unders and dealing with burbles; In freeflying, everything

(Q) What is your favorite way to fly in the tunnel?

(A) Belly flying is much more confortable and safe for me, but I am finding freeflying a fun challenge right now

(Q) What is the largest number of people that you have been in the tunnel with?

(A) 2 (not including me)

(Q) What is the longest that you have flown straight (i.e. Not left the tunnel for a rest)?

(A) 7.5 minutes

(Q) What is the greatest number of minutes/hours that you have gotten in the tunnel in a 24 hour period?

(A) 40 minutes

(Q) What is your ideal tunnel flight/crazy tunnel flight idea?

(A) I think Paige spawned this idea in my brain, but my plan for my 30th birthday is to fly 30 straight minutes and get as many of my friends as possible to rotate flying with me in the tunnel.  It is just over 3 years away, so I have a lot of time to condition my body to fly that long.

Copy and paste and answer the questions and we can learn about each other.

(Q) What has been the hardest skill for you to master in the tunnel so far?

(A) Every new skill is hard for me to master, sit flying took the longest for me, I was too chicken after a bad fall to give it my full attention.

(Q) What is your favorite way to fly in the tunnel?

(A) Everyway with several people...! Most importantly, without a plan!

(Q) What is the largest number of people that you have been in the tunnel with?

(A) 13 I believe is the largest number of people

(Q) What is the longest that you have flown straight (i.e. Not left the tunnel for a rest)?

(A) well...  without stopping flying, I'd say about an hour, but with small breaks of a minute or so, I've been in for 2.5 hours straight, with like a minute break every 10 or so...

(Q) What is the greatest number of minutes/hours that you have gotten in the tunnel in a 24 hour period?

(A) 3 hours once, although I paid for that for at least 3 weeks!!!

(Q) What is your ideal tunnel flight/crazy tunnel flight idea?

(A) A football field of open air wind tunnels so close together that you could fly from one column to another

So, here is an interesting twist on this post that will be fun.  My husband gave me this idea because he told me about a tunnel related dream he had this morning.  He dreamed that he was in a tunnel the size of a basketball court with all of our friends.  What is the craziest tunnel flying dream that you have ever had?

I have never had a tunnel flying dream....go figure, and I am the total tunnel junkie between the two of us.
