dzromeo 0 #1 July 26, 2005 Hey all, I have most of my hard-core RW training out of a C182c. I'm going to be taking a low numbers buddy to another DZ in a couple of weeks, to get some stuff done out of their Otter. I have about 60 jumps out of a Caravan, but I need some help. What are the various ways to launch a two way belly formation with grips, out of a larger aircraft? I'm sure you can do anything you want, I'm just wondering what some tried and tested methods are to reach stability quickly, and hopefully get a point or two on the hill. Thanks in advance for the detailed replies. :)Plan the dive, dive the plan. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

For 2 way you can do 1 diving and 1 floating with the diver taking a chest strap or a high arm grip, or both floating and taking 1 high arm grip and rotating into each other on exit. The ways to do this out of a large aircraft are easy, but if you want to feel at home you can always try to get into the "V" of the Otter but I don't recommend it :-) Hope that helps some.
