Samurai136 0 #5 January 6, 2006 Uh, didn't visually check for aircraft before exit I guess. Did ATC inform the pilot there was traffic? Did the Pilot tell the skydivers? It's always nice to know. Strange thing is, once the jumper was oriented to see the ground the plane is dead center of the image. It was the first thing I noticed. sigh"Buttons aren't toys." - Trillian Ken Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Please see incident thread for the 'discussion' on this... QuoteStrange thing is, once the jumper was oriented to see the ground the plane is dead center of the image.

xpug 0 #8 January 11, 2006 Yeh. I've been alerted to a few sites hosting copies of this. It slightly irks me that it's being used as a 'cheap thrill' for the masses that would never understand the half of it. I'm not sure of the impact on the sport, but this and others like it can't be an incentive to take part! Despite contacting the webmasters and explaining the reason why I don't want it spread around (never mind the copyright issues), only 1 of the 5 melonfarmers has done the decent thing. Thing is, it's probably a skydiver that has ripped the video from SDM or distributed it to their friends...sigh. Once its out though, that's it; I'll probably get a link to it from someone I know before long! LOL Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
