LOL. See below for a post I wrote last year concerning Lutz's jump. BTW, on your RSL statement, I made my first jump in 1975 with a RSL (then called a Stevens lanyard.) And in all the DZs I've worked at since the 80s I've never seen a FJC student put out without an RSL. (Although I'm sure there are some backasswards DZs that probably did so). NickD BASE 194 Doh! My bad. Thanks for coming along and correcting me, Nick. I'm glad someone from Perris came along and gave a correct account of the story... as its obvious what I heard wasn't correct... but I didn't want to go and "out" the DZ even though I recognized it from the background in the video.
