Fun at the 100 ways

My old Buddy Steve White (aka: "Hammerwork")? Man, I haven't seen or heard from him in quite a while! ...Tell me that he has moved on out there now to the left coast! ...??

It's gotta be him (one in the same with who I am thinking of) as that story was actually, just totally regular everyday, if not quitessential Steve! -Good going buddy! :)

The biggest lesson for me was how to NOT look at the base.



Good job "holding your ground" too Bill!

Overall we got one cover shot quality completion



A small version of which can be seen on Don's Shutterfly album (a comp 1256.jpg)

The dive plan can be seen on the Perris Cam Picture page

Attached is a picture of the plan of the second dive.

Once again I was amazed at how much coordination and planning seemed to magically happen to have five aircraft show up, take us to 16,500 feet with oxygen, in formation, and drop us within about a quarter mile of target 18 times. It's all the behind the scenes stuff you don't see, of course, but between Kate and Tony, Perris Valley, Elsinore, the pilots, the loaders, the plane captains etc it looked pretty effortless.



Hear, hear! Very professional. Outstanding. Well worth a ten hour flight, a 3 hour drive (and back) for four days of jumping!

Good to see you again Bill.

I remember him from the big ways in the late 90's. We were on the New Jersey 100 ways three years in a row... wonder how he's doing these days too...
