moodyskydiver 0 #1 March 4, 2007 After 2 reschedules due to weather holds we finally got my hubby in the air for his first tandem on Friday.The staff was excellent and very friendly, which made everything run smoothe.He enjoyed himself immensely and cant wait to go up again. He wishes to say he is sorry that he didnt interact with the cameraman,Justin, more for the video (hes not a big fan of being on video).But that we're both thrilled with the way the video came out.It was very beautifully done artistically and professionally.Thanks for giving us those memories. Also, we'd both like to thank Mark Futch, his TI,for such a relaxed,professional, and enjoyable demeanor.As well as his ability to instruct and inform students throughly without overwhelming them and keeping them calm. Lastly, we'd like to think Todd Spillers,AggieDave,Monica from manifest,the pilot and and everyone else who welcomed us with open arms and encouragement.You have all truely made my husband's experience memorable.

loco.cerveza 0 #2 March 4, 2007 Yes, everyone at Aggieland did thier best to make my fisrt jump enjoyable. I have to give Mark Futch many props for the way he took care of me on the jump. I like the fact he was very blunt (not in a bad way) in that he told what I needed to know when I needed to know it. I am very sorry that I did not interact with the camrea more, 16 years as a corrections officer one sees video camreas every day and one gets to the point that they are there and you act normal as possable when around them The video was great and Justin my hat is off to you for making a very very good video even if with me being a very bad subject to film. The staff at Aggieland are some of nicest people I have meet, they excepted me as an outsider/new to the sport If any was to ask me were to do their first jump in my area I would tell them Aggieland. It is very hard to put in to words how well I was treated and look forward to my next jump.Remember that expectant life span is an average, and most people are below average --Garrison Keillor Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
calledisrael 0 #3 March 4, 2007 aggieland is pretty much the best place ever. and if it weren't for what a good instructor mark is, i would never have kept skydiving. i just wish i didn't live more than two hours away, especially on gorgeous sundays like today.. life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all.

loco.cerveza 0 #4 March 5, 2007 I have to agree with you %100. As much as I enjoyed my jump, Haveing Mark being the one to tell me what I needed to do it made it that much more enjoyable.Remember that expectant life span is an average, and most people are below average --Garrison Keillor Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
