Kbone 0 #1 January 7, 2005 A while back, I was complaining about the "Parachutist" cover pics not being as top notch as they should be. http://dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=1192740;search_string=cover;#1192740 Everyone totally flipped out..... "how dare you" they said! I just got my January Parachutist and to my delight! I cover photo of Luigi on his VX39 pocket rocket! Just as I suggested! It's nice to know that I have a voice in this community and that my complaints are promptly acted upon! I rock so hard! Try not to thank me all at once!

Slappie 9 #3 January 7, 2005 Once a troll always a troll.. not that I'm calling you a troll. I was just making a statement about trolls always turning up trying to stir the pot of troll stew.. Ya know what a troll is? "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."

pilotdave 0 #5 January 7, 2005 I was looking at doc john's parachutist cover site (http://manifestmaster.com/parachutist/years.html) the other day and was noticing that some of the older covers were much more creative than most of the recent ones. I was also pleasantly surprised by the january cover (which I actually saw for the first time on that site). Dave Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dave It could be that the photographers were more creative then, or the creative ones just are not sending in the pics! And pics like this and the ones the Freak Brothers have from the 70s make me laugh when people claim that they invented freeflying in the 90s. http://manifestmaster.com/parachutist/1984_11.jpg_________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me....

pilotdave 0 #10 January 7, 2005 I also think they'd be a lot less likely now (probably for good reason) to publish pictures of things they consider dangerous. Can you imagine this on the cover now?: http://manifestmaster.com/parachutist/1979_07.jpg. But yeah, I don't blame USPA for boring covers. I'm not sending them anything better...

PhreeZone 20 #11 January 7, 2005 Ghostplane! For one thing I've noticed is Parachutist likes to publish "Group" photos a lot more then photos of just one person. They use to have a Photo at the very beginning and the Photo Finish.Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can anyone tell me with any kind of certainty if the October 1982 cover shows the Ben Franklin Bridge in Philadelphia? It sure looks like it, but I know that the architecturals on some large projects are copied onto other projects. (Veteran's Stadium/Candlestick Park/Three Rivers Stadium, for example) I ask because if it is the Ben, it looks like those guys are going to land either in the Camden Prison, or almost exactly where I work. ---Nover Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
