Andy_Copland 0 #1 August 6, 2006 No this isnt a joke Having only ever jumped the Nomad i was in new territory and i can say i loved it. The apprehension of a skydive alone is all good fun but mix that with worrying about getting the 3 of you out for a linked exit just added to the excitement. Sunset load with light wind and i'd just downsized the previous jump and couldnt wait to fly the Pilot again. There was a litle confusion in the door and the plan changed slightly but we all kinda went with it. Tony (Shropshire) went rear, Billy (woodpecker) went center and i was hanging onto a chest strap and arm, the count was done and it couldnt of went any smoother. I love the cherokee 1338 People aint made of nothin' but water and shit. Until morale improves, the beatings will continue. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Eule 0 #17 August 6, 2006 QuoteI love the cherokee I'm kinda partial to the Sac and Fox, myself. Mostly because they (or at least, the people who gamble in their casino) are helping to pay for repaving the highway to the dropzone, so I can get there faster. :) Eule Tulsa, Oklahoma, USAPLF does not stand for Please Land on Face.
