Skydiving

OGDEN -- Skydivers are attending a four-day tunnel camp at iFLY in Ogden to train to become competitors at the United States Parachute Association National Skydiving Championships.

The iFLY experiences gives the skydivers the opportunity to learn body control, including flips, turns and falling with the head pointed down.

MOAB -- The death of a champion skydiver whose body was found beneath a cliff outside Moab has been ruled a probable suicide.

MESQUITE, Nev. -- It was supposed to be a special birthday gift to a grandmother -- a family skydiving adventure with a veteran instructor who was one of the Elvis Presley impersonators who jumped from an airplane in the movie "Honeymoon in Vegas."

But the tandem skydive ended in tragedy Sunday near the Nevada-Arizona border when two parachutes failed to open, sending 75-year-old Claudette Porter of North Las Vegas and instructor James Fonnesbeck to their deaths.

MOAB -- Family members are canvassing Moab's main strip and paragliders plan to scan the foothills of the southeastern Utah town for any sign of a skydiving instructor missing more than a week.

SEBASTIAN, Fla. -- If you think watching a space shuttle launch is a remarkable experience, try viewing it from 10,000 feet in the air.

Up to 23 skydivers plan on parachuting for a better view of Endeavour's final scheduled launch at 3:47 p.m. on April 29.
