smooth 0 #1 October 28, 2007 Remember Operation Jumpfest in Albert Lea Minnesota? Previously called Grandpa's Jumpfest. I think 7-Up was one of the sponsors. If memory serves me right it was kinda like Couch Freaks. I came across two Christmas cards that Gordie Hanson sent. One had a little 7-Up patch with it.

Zing 2 #2 October 28, 2007 I've still got one of the cloissone pins from Grampa's Jumpfest. It's a bearded old fart jumper under a rainbow square drinking a 7-Up. I don't recall what year it was, but I was flying one of two DC-3s that came for the event, along with a Twin Beech and a Helio-Stallion. I even got a ride in a P-51. Must have been 1988 or 1989.Zing Lurks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
