68w10p 0 #1 August 9, 2009 I was on the static line progression program for my first 7 jump. I had to complete to 10 sec delays. My first 10 sec delay went ok, but I was in a slow spin to the right. I though I was going to lose control I pull at what i thought was 5000 when in fact I pull at 6000. I jump at 6500Ft. Second 10 sec delay went great. I stable body position and pull at 5000ft. I did very well. So I ask to start AFF program. They started me at AFF level 4. We jump at 10000 ft I did a mock pull and several 90degree turn. Then I wave off and pulled my chute. I even did well on the landing to. I have now completed 10 jump and 15 more to go! V/R Edward Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
