A Harley,Beech99, T6 and Sturgis!

Recommended Posts

It started off with the RV crapping out (see photo)
but it ended up great!

I rented a Harley for a day and enjoyed the area. But there was something shiny and I decided to touch it with my leg, then again the next day:S So I now have an official Sturgis tattoo (exhaust burn). >:(

Did Demo jumps into the Glenco and the Full throttle.

But my favorite so far is the 1950 T6B|B|

Oops got to go do another jump, be back soon.

Did you jump out of the T-6? If so how did you exit?

Inverted?B|



Very very carefully!:S:S:S:S:S

I stepped out with the right foot first then left down to the wing. Its a long reach and the step is only about 4"wide. Once I got to the wing with the left I dropped the right.
Then I grabbed the step with my right hand with my body facing the fuselage. I was going to squat down to the wing and then go but it didnt feel right or secure when I started to squat. So I just went off at a 45 angle and it was great. He was in a slight decent so the tail was even higher.
He was able to slow it to 80 so it wasnt a big struggle. Two concerns were squatting in the seat with my rig in the air for about a minute and of course the first step getting to the wing. I have a really bad right ankle so it was even more of a concern.

My 33rd AC to jump and my 1440 skydive!! whoo hooo

So you sold the crotch rocket, was that cause you need a Harley?;)

it has been a great time, there are some skinny passengers here as well:P:P:P
The T6 jump was probably one of my favorites. I really enjoy the AC that are a challenge to get out of, especially at 6'2". The DC9 was rather boring for me, not to take anything away from it, hell, cant beat the climb rate!!

This place is filled with all kinds of specialty AC, so far most are open to lets us jump them. Except for the Blackhawk:S:S:(

We still have a couple days left, get out here and jump over one of the largest parties in the world!!!
