Sketchy and I can even do Plaything's ground school at Roy's house so afterward, our favorite wine/beer will be waiting for us 
LOL! J/K, no need to supply nuttin. Sketchy will Byron let you borrow Malfunction pics, student rig, other FJC stuff for an evening at Chop Chop's to do Plaything's FJC?
If not, we may be best off with Lany doing her FJC at the DZ. I actually highly recommend doing it at the DZ. From experience of teaching an FJC at a friend's house one night. Let's just say the Anvil and a few others showed up with some Everclear.
That was some FJC. And we don't have King Airs in Chop Chop's bedroom to use for realism and practice
It was apparent that the guy was just trying to impress my vidiet friend and that his REAL sport of choice should have been badmitton.
It was an oh so interesting first jump

I can use Break Away for the malfunctions unit along with some other materials I have collected to help me.
We don't really need a student rig for the equipment familiarization unit, sport gear will do. Of course she will have to do handle touches on the real gear before she jumps.
I'm pretty sure I can get a clock altimeter from the DZ this weekend.
A horizontal trainer can be made with a couple of cushions on the floor.
Not sure she will be jumping a KA on her first jump anyway so we can rig up something for the exit unit.
I don't think that they will let me do a FJC for free at the DZ. I'd be perfectly willing to do it, but they do make money off it as well.
I was thinking that the idea is to do this as cheaply as possible since Lany has a limited budget right now, that's why I suggested we try to get Bill to go for it and do it at Lodi.
I want to fly camera on her jumps!
What could possibly go wrong? After all we are all highly trained professionals
Come on out to Byron this weekend and jump or party with us!

Jeff ... straight up.
A sport rig is fine for training but she needs to be able to pull the handles and throw them... over and over again.
Break-away is fine... but you will be using the pictures as well for the drills.
We'll talk about you flying video. That's not a given. If I'm flying, it's up to me, not you.

PS...
I'm a trained professional. Well trained mind you.
I'm well aware of what can go wrong so as light and carefree as you wish this thread to be, it aint.

1) Of course she'll need to pull handles, I have a traning harness (old Racer, finally found a good use for it!)
2) Of course I'll use pictures as well, although pausing the video should work just fine. I can get a copy of the Mal test video.
3) As for flying camera, I didn't say I was, I said I wanted to.
Jeesh, give a guy a break. I wouldn't half-ass it for her any more than I'd half-ass it upstairs.

Relax bud, I wouldn't expect any thing less than the excellence you've already proven.
The Rig was an unknown and it sounded like you didn't have one. My bad.
Just find a nice private place with out the distractions such as Jen mentioned. Her nice comfortable Home setting is probably not the the best place to teach.
Carry on.
