Andy_Copland 0 #3 July 11, 2005 Im going to do a search now and see if i can find any tips on flaring. I tried to keep looking ahead at an angle but made the mistake of looking at my feet. Also i suffered from an accident back in 2001 which cost me the loss of an eye so i had major problems with depth perception yarghhh! Another thing is im not going to use the altimeters that go around your fingers and settle on the back of your hand, i was struggling to see my altitude as it rotated to the left of my wrist. The instructor noticed and put his infront of my face. That ground comes up very quick 1338 People aint made of nothin' but water and shit. Until morale improves, the beatings will continue.
