Hello from the distant past...

My name is Pat. I was a jumper and jump pilot in Cal from the mid 70's through mid 80's. Had a few questions for the skydiving community.

STEVE HALEY: I still have your rainbow Strat and hear you still have Norton's Orange and Black. Ever think about selling it?

GROUP: I've published a science fiction book that has nothing to do with skydiving but fans of Jules Verne might enjoy. Is it cool to post a link to my publisher's webpage at DZ.com so people can see it and maybe order it from Amazon or Barnes and Noble?

I also have a book in the works about the barnstorming days of CRW. When that's done, would it also be cool to post a link here, as well?

Thanks, and have a Happy Veteran's Day.

And I would love to read the CRW book! Let me know when it is done and I have lots of CRW community access I can post a link to. I can't wait to read that!

(And yes I was asked this weekend by a young pup if I used to do CRW on rounds - I was in kindergarden when people did CRW on rounds.. These young punks nowadays :-)
