Airman1270 0 #1 October 28, 2004 20 years today since my first square jump. (Remember "first square jumps"?) I was a student at Duanesburg, NY, with just over 40 jumps (long, drawn-out student career, static line program.) I learned about a DZ an hour closer to home called the Blue Sky Ranch & stopped by. At the time I was jumping rounds and asked Joe R. if they had a P.C. I could use. He looked at my logbook and asked "Wanna try a square?" (At the time my home DZ required students to pay extra for "square training.") "Sure." They gave me a briefing & a Strato-Cloud, put a radio on me, and sent me up. The radio guy didn't say much. A non-descript flight & landing not too far from the peas. All for the price of a single jump ticket. This was back in the days when you could actually jump a Cessna at the Ranch. Finished my student career at Duanesburg, using a Manta, & graduated using my "new" used rig w/a Cloud & no AAD. Thanks guys. Cheers, Jon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
