becs8399 0 #1 November 6, 2003 I am looking for wing engineering info about sky diving/base jumping. I need technical terms. This could also include info about suits, such as the birdman. I need to know the effects of wind. I'm a grad student doing a project in a wind engineering class, and I have only made two sky dives. My boyfriend is a sky diver and base jumper and told me to check out this site. Any help would be great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TomAiello 26 #2 November 6, 2003 Do you have specific questions? It's a bit difficult to just start a dissertation on terms. Have you looked over the Birdman web site?-- Tom Aiello Tom@SnakeRiverBASE.com SnakeRiverBASE.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
becs8399 0 #3 November 6, 2003 Hey Tom- T-bone told me that you would probably reply. I'm his girl. I looked over the birdman website, but I need more technical info. I also saw the post on the PC drag table. That's the kind of stuff I'm interested in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
