Flew My Cloud

Recommended Posts

I have an old Strato-Cloud with around 300 jumps on it. Haven't jumped it since 1993. Last year I hooked it up to my Wonderhog. It's been packed for about nine months. Took it up last weekend at the Farm, intending to do a short delay, but we had a go-around and kept climbing so the exit was above 8000'. Took it to terminal and pulled at 6000' to give it plenty of time before the cutaway but BAM! it opened briskly. Not the fastest canopy in the sky, but a little faster than a round. Enjoyed the comments from the younger jumpers.B| Overheard one guy in the airplane saying "I'm glad I never had to jump that crap." A nice visit with the past. Anyone wanna borrow it?

Cheers,
Jon
