where have you packed?

Recommended Posts

Was on my way to jump, and my tire blew up. once I got to pepboys to get new tires, i realized that I hadn't packed, and it was already afternoon. I wanted to get at least one load, so , I found a very small grass area in the shopping center parking lot. Grabbed my gear out of the car while they were changing the tires, and packed in the middle of the parking lot, in between lots of small businesses. that was fun.

The floor of a Major Aircraft Manufacturing Company I worked for as an Engineering contractor. I really wanted to swing on by the DZ for a sunset load, so I went to a secluded spot used for short term storage and packed up!

Big family party.. I think it was a family reunion or something similar. I was unpacked, and wanted to jump on a load as soon as I got to the DZ.

Only place in the house long enough was the family room. So.. "Alright, I gotta pack so if you all don't mind I need to stretch this out right here".

I travel a ton and im sure there are many of you out there who do as well.. Ive packed in many hotels and even at a car rental place to get packed before a commercial flight home. Where have you guys all packed? most interesting, strange or awkward place...



The cab of a pickup truck.
but that one was not for jumping - just getting on the commercial airplane.

Then I repacked at a terminal at SFO. That one was jumped and worked.
I used a gate that was not being used and it was after 10 pm, so not many people were around.
This was pre-TSA days, so no one said anything.

In the classroom of the flight school at which I teach.

The chief instructor saw me and asked what I was doing.

"Getting ready to solo another student."
"Harry, why did you land all the way out there? Nobody else landed out there."

"Your statement answered your question."

In a DC3 on the way to altitude..... :D



What happend there? Did someone tap you on the shoulder and say, "Dude, I think you forgot to pack your chute.";)



Nope. Had a back to back load and plenty of time after packing to dirt dive in the plane as well. :)If I needed to bail in an emergency, there was the extra pilots rig available;)
