Phillbo 11 #26 March 10, 2005 Other than notifying the pilot, I thought I read somewhere that he has a responsibility to stay in the area if you open above a certain altitude? I've only done one but would love to do more for some extended canopy time to work on skills. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gdmusumeci 0 #27 March 11, 2005 It's a lot of fun, but three things come to mind. First, you should talk to a local instructor to see what they have to say about it instead of trusting my opinion! Second, plan your spot carefully -- talk to the pilot and get a sense of what the winds aloft are doing. Third, the air density at altitude is significantly less than it is near the ground, so your canopy may appear to fly a little differently. Just something to get used to....
