Maybe it's just me, but when I'm flying, there's not usually a hell of a lot of people around that I could ask for directions Alphonshttp://www.liacs.nl/~avwerven Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hehehe......I just know that they do that a lot from that experience and from other 4-way teams. However, I think they ALL do that.--------------JumpinDuo.com will be here within days...brace yourself. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SkyDekker 1,465 #29 November 14, 2001 I'm with you sunshine, I love my two cats, but they will have to get used to my "soon-to-be-taken-out-of-the-pound-mud".

chicagoskydiver 0 #31 November 14, 2001 I agree with numbers 2,4,6,7,11,13,14,16,18 and 24. And I DEFINITELY agree with numbers 8 and 20. I totally disagree with the one about the cat, I'm a cat person, and Sunday means sports only when the weather is crappy and we can't jump.Hackey Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SpeedRacer 1 #35 November 14, 2001 Yeah, I don't know where all this "Men hate cats" bullshit comes from. I've known maybe two men who didn't like cats. I have a cat named Bongo who likes to tear through my apartment for no reason at all, and will gently bite your arm or bat at your feet if you're not playing with him enough.The only thing I'd add to the list is the whole jewelry thing. WTF should I spend the price of a complete rig + Cypres on a totally useless yellowish ring with a lump of glass-like substance on it? Also I hear Deboers & others are stockpiling diamonds to keep the price up. Plus the miners in Africa get paid shit.I say, fuck jewelry, & use the money on jumps, gear, and beer!Speed RacerThe problem with the world is that everyone is a few drinks behind-Bogart Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aviatrr 0 #44 November 14, 2001 Quote Actually.... no. We can't call go around. We have the option of getting out or riding the plane down. Thats it out of the Casa. The rate of fuel burn is too great to do multiple passes is what we were told. That's a total BS excuse.. The CASA fuel flows are nothing if the pilots know what the hell they're doing......especially for the extra few minutes it takes to do a long, slow go-around.. Hell, they can even just do a 180 and let the rest of the people out on a downwind jumprun.. Or they can fly a circular jumprun around the perimeter of the DZ.. There are many things that can be done.. Sounds like your DZO(I'm assuming that's who made the policy) is more interested in the bottom line than safety..Mike Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wildblue 7 #45 November 15, 2001 QuoteThat's a total BS excuse.. Nahhh.. they'll do go arounds, they just don't like Phreezone It's not a policy, it's just sorta discouraged for fear that people will get go-around happy, and call go arounds all the time. But if it's really needed, the pilots are more than willing to do it.I ain't happy, I'm feeling gladI got sunshine, in a bag Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michele 1 #46 November 15, 2001 Geez, Perris pilots initiate go-rounds. I have been learning all about the little green light, see, and the pilot will shut it off. I'm learning to check, get to the door, check again, and then go. I have forgotten once or twice, but have been pulled back by friends on the load (thank god for them.). Also, on my first solo, the pilot told me he was gonna do a go-round, as I was last off the plane. That plane was so big sitting there by myself, waiting for the whole go-round.Perris pilot Rob is good.......Ciels-Michele"What of the dreams that never die?
