Jumperpaula 0 #1 February 4, 2002 Low ceiling, we did hop n pops with the Rabbit all day. Way...cool. The deal was, if we made 15 loads, it would beat his personal records for loads flown (from San Marcos last weekend, when we borrowed their Otter) ,then Ginger would buy the beer. They made 24 loads, from 2500 to 3000. Rabbit bought the beer. Low Hop-n-Pops, like from our Otter DZ are such a novelty. They were addicting. Once you did one, you had to go again.Fly Your Slot !

PhreeZone 20 #3 February 4, 2002 QuoteLow Hop-n-Pops, like from our Otter DZ are such a noveltyHow about hop and pops out of our Casa all summer? Talk about getting strange looks. People act like its wrong to do those out of a Casa or something.

AggieDave 6 #4 February 4, 2002 Rabbit is a blast to party with and even fun to fly with. I had the pleasure a couple weeks ago at SDSan Marcos, strangly enough. It motivated me that he even remember who I was from that one weekend party back a few months ago at SDSpaceland. Cool guy, good pilot.

Zennie 0 #5 February 4, 2002 QuoteIt motivated me that he even remember who I was After he got back I mentioned you and he kind of gave me an "I don't know" look and then I described you and his eyes lit up and he goes "Oh Corn Fed! Yeah we had fun!" "Zero Tolerance: the politically correct term for zero thought, zero common sense." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AggieDave 6 #6 February 4, 2002 Yeah, that's what he said when I walked up to the plane! That cracked me up. Success is how high you bounce when you hit bottom.-General George Patton- Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jumperpaula 0 #7 February 4, 2002 The Cessna wasn't so bad....about the time you were feeling cramped...it was jump run. I NEVER get to just hang on the strut- or get out at 2500. It was really cool for someone who does RW and Otter Ways all the time. I swear, I have a total of like 8 Cessna jumps - Damn Turbine Snob. But I loved it, and we love our Rabbitt. Fly Your Slot !

Jessica 0 #8 February 4, 2002 QuoteI swear, I have a total of like 8 Cessna jumps - Damn Turbine Snob.I have ONE, and it seriously freaked my shit. First, I couldn't sit down from a kneeling position, then when it was time for jump run, I couldn't get back up. I think my three fellow passengers (men!) were taking up as much room as they could just to see me struggle. Then I totally LAUNCHED us off the step, just like I was hanging out the door of an otter, and created the most impressive funnel I've ever been a part of. OT: Yesterday I got a couple of RW fun jumps in, and a guy tagged along to video us, and afterward, he said, "I love filming these zoo dives!" Should I be insulted? Walk a mile in your enemy's shoes.

nacmacfeegle 0 #10 February 4, 2002 Rabbitt was stoked, the final count was 27 hop n pop loads, in one day, which even beat his dad's all time record.Way cool.We topped off the day with a hit and chug comp, as soon as we started the chugging side, the sky split open in big blue bits....alas too late.Cya D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
