FlyingRhenquest 1 #1 December 31, 2012 I had an odd dream in which one of the DZ pilots was teaching me how to land the King Air. As I started my approach, he directed me to go around and try again with the landing gear down. What an oddly specific thing for my subconscious to come up with. Is this the skydiver equivalent of being in homeroom with no clothes on?I'm trying to teach myself how to set things on fire with my mind. Hey... is it hot in here?

BigMikeH77 0 #3 December 31, 2012 That King Air is E-V-I-L. See? It's invaded the sanctity of your dreams, Bruce... Or maybe you have a jump jones since the DZ has been closed all week. Hmmmm. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FlyingRhenquest 1 #4 January 1, 2013 Ooh might be the jump jones thing. If it gets up to the 40s by the weekend I'll be there! I have some new nomex flight gloves which I don't think will be any warmer than the previous ones, but I'll just slap on some latex gloves under them and I should be fine. I think you'll like the King Air once you stop trying to get three people out the door. Climbing out of it is surprising if you're used to the Otter -- it's fast and the prop blast can catch you by surprise. Since I went solo, I just dive from the door and it's great! The first seats on the floor are downright comfortable, too! It's a lot better than trying to jam yourself on the bench somewhere in the middle.I'm trying to teach myself how to set things on fire with my mind. Hey... is it hot in here?
