Wasted no time in getting this beautiful geocoin an exciting adventure today. We drove down to Lumberton, Mississippi to jump out of an airplane several times with the jumpers at the Gold Coast Skydivers drop zone. The f0t0m0m coin stayed (relatively) safe riding in a fanny pack attached to my skydiving rig while enjoying four jumps from 14,000 feet. We flew to altitude in the drop zone's Super Twin Otter jump plane, then bailed out of the door and experienced over 70 seconds of freefall flight at over 125 miles per hour before deploying the chute and having a 5-minute ride back to a soft landing. We participated in several formation skydives, flying with other jumpers to form multiple different formations on each jump. In all, we traveled over 21 miles, vertically. At 2:00 in the afternoon the heat index was around 112 degrees, so it was time to head home and jump in the pool with my kids and grandkids.
Now this geocoin has experienced the thrill and beauty of flight and knows why the birds sing. I'll get it back into a local cache soon.
Blue skies!
