Are you speaking of the "thisdoesn'tlookright" exit?...

Yep.. that one and number 4... Q and I had just muscled and shook him into position after another one of those legs and arms extended in front exits..

Jay was not only a great instructor, and a great person to know.... He is also a very good student.

Oh.. boy.. Jay and his exit shenanigans.. hehehehe...

LOL - I just passed the course with Jay in June. The 206 w/ cargo door exit is easy enough to control that he never really hosed us there, but man did he forget what we taught him soon thereafter! I thought his funniest trick was driving forward just as I got out front on Cat.D, trying to bump his head into mine so he'd have an excuse to roll over. I'd seen that one already, so started backsliding and got my hands up...lightly block him at the shoulders and yep, there's his excuse...over he goes. His close second was waving at & giving the thumbs up to the camera while spinning on his back. Honorable mention goes to a Cat. C on which he was backsliding pretty hard. We were maybe a foot or two in front of him on either side, driving pretty hard while flashing legs out....whoops, here he comes in full drive. We both got him at about the elbows, but at the same time so he couldn't roll over from the extremity dock, and his exuse during debrief for the hard backslide to hard forward motion transition was "Well I saw TWO legs out signals, so I figured I should stick them out TWICE as hard".

Toooo funny.

NOO MOOORE TUURRRNNS!!! LOL

Congrats on the rating!

he brought that same bag of tricks to Byron.. almost got me on my Cat D with the sliding away, continuing to wave off maneuver, I was a little too confident and relaxed by then and missed the reserve side dock and hd to chase it to about 3,900 feet.. I still gave him the pull signal and got him out a split second before his pilot chute cleared the container..

I now have a logbook entry for jump number 1,188 that says.. 3,500.5' signed by him.. Pshew! i sure didn't want to have to re-do that jump..
