freeflir29 0 #2 June 6, 2002 QuoteHer instructors don't understand why she made the decision to turn donwindWe had a girl not long ago that had a nice spot but landed 5-6 miles AWAY FROM THE DZ. Why you ask? She was having trouble stearing the canopy WITH THE REAR RISERS!!! Why didn't she unstow the toggles you ask? "Oh I walked away from the class when they started talking about toggles" Frustrating students!!!!! I hate watching students land. "Here I come to save the BOOBIES!"
