NtheSeaOrSky 0 #1 March 19, 2002 What did I do to piss of the weather gods????I graduated and did my first solo jump. The next day I try to jump, but am winded out. And thus is how it goes for the next FOUR WEEKS! After refreshing emergency training since I was now uncurrent, I manifest for a load. Weather is GREAT. Forcast is GREAT. 5 minutes to boardin the plane, it starts gusting over 20mph! At first it was an inconvenience, now its just too damn funny! Next I suppose I will be on the plane and have the pilot tell me everyone but me can go! I am ready for anything! My silver lining........lots of packing practice!

In the future you'll forget all of this student restricitions and will even explain the frustration to other students.........There will always be another day to jump......."I know I am intelligent, because I know that I know nothing" -- socrates Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NtheSeaOrSky 0 #5 March 19, 2002 First week bummer, oh well. Second week, no way, pretty funny. Yeah about the third week, it was hysterical. Pulling off the load was pretty funny. I said well, at least Im getting closer! Thats why I can imagine the next one will be them holding me in the plane! Did I mention I got LOTS of packing time! That 290 doesnt seem so big anymore! Its all good. Id rather get to jump and play under canopy in good conditions. Theres always another weekend! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
