PhreeZone 20 #26 November 24, 2003 68:6:0 68 freak degrees in November! WOO HOO!! I wore shorts jumping today. Got some really nice jumps in. Hop and Pop to ham it up for a Tandem video, 2 freefly jumps with JadedLady, Wingsuit jump with Jaco212 (First jump for him on his Skyflyer ). Did 2 RW jumps today. 16 point 4 way and a 15 point 4 way. Not bad for a guy thats only got about 10 RW jumps in this year. Its kinda making me want to do some more 4 way next year....Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RevJim 0 #32 November 24, 2003 0:0:0 I get a Bird Man suit, and now have a reason to really, REALLY want to be at the DZ every weekend.So, what happens? SSDD, Wisconsin weather. Low clouds all last weekend, then sun all week. Then there was this weekend.... It started raining Friday, and it's still raining. It better clear up in time for a few Bird Man jumps next weekend, or I might go Postal.It's your life, live it!

velo90 0 #35 November 24, 2003 You get a hug from me! 5:4 A total of 8 jumps on my new Velocity 90. All from 5000ft. Canopy flight is great fun. One guy had a bummer of a jump though. Had a reserve and lost the following. 1) A cutaway pad 2) A d-ring 3) A free bag 4) A shoe As of this morning his main was still stuck on top of an enormous tree. It should have been rescued by now though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Our King Air is still kaput, but the "good" news is that the stuff in the engine that's broke is all on the "cold" side of the turbine.

I just love the Cessna once I'm hanging off some part of it. On the five way, we launced a chunk with me hanging out the back of the door. I go to take my spot and get slammed up against the fuselage by the prop blast. I didn't get knocked off, but I almost fell off cause I was laughing so hard.
