drenaline 0 #51 September 23, 2002 0:2:0 2 great cesna jumps. The canopy Fly great when you loosen the chest strap, man it made my spectre glide like a charm. (Student status people, do not loosen your chest strap, its an extra risk you take.) HISPA 21 www.panamafreefall.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
quatorze 1 #52 September 23, 2002 Also to students, if the student rig that you are using does not have a colapsible slider, there isn't any real use in loosening your chest strap as the slider will not allow the lines to spread allowing the canopy to flatten out, which is what makes it glide better.

meatmissile 0 #53 September 23, 2002 1:1:3 Flew up to Citrusdal DZ for the Saturday in a Cherokee 180. Had a really cool jump with an American named Mike over there, and a fantastic swim in the river afterwards. The three is double brandy and cokes owed/required/downed by me and my passengers Kevin and Murdoch after the flight back to Stellenbosch - the Cape Doctor (southeasterly wind) had started up during the day, making for an interesting takeoff at Citrusdal, a bumpy flight back, and a rather scary crosswind landing at Stellenbosch. And thanks to the unknown pilot from Cape Town who showed me "how not to do it" with his PA-160 takeoff from Citrusdal -- ZZZzzzz.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

flyhi 24 #68 September 23, 2002 QuoteCan you make it out for the Boyz-Ways? Unfortunately, not. Possible move to left coast next year means I have to hit everything out east I can.

RevJim 0 #71 September 24, 2002 QuoteQuotefirst jump with the Flying Elvises Congrats on the Elvi jump! Heard they're a bunch of real fun guys! Was Muscat amongst the group with you? ltdiver Let me specify here. The Original Flying Elvises. The ones that did the movie Honeymoon in Vegas. There are that I know of only 2 or 3 of them left. I shall not name names here, as that is not my place. One must remember there is a difference between the Flying Elvises and the Flying Elvi, the formaer is the real deal. I jumped with two guys who were in a movie with Nicolas Cage. In fact, in the movie, one of them was seated right next to Mr Cage. And I repeat.....life is GOOD!It's your life, live it!
