Bush jump - a different take

[tspillers 0]

I would like to say I really enjoyed the having Golden Knights at Skydive Aggieland. They were professional and friendly. Great job to our packers as the GK's couldn't stop talking about the great openings. Wade and Morgan packed the tandems and sport rigs. We did an Otter load speed star with the Gold Demo team.

I enjoyed meeting former President Bush as well as Barbara. They had several family members jump at Skydive Aggieland as well as some other celebrities.

I have been told I was seen on Fox News catching a tandem. I haven't seen anything. We have had early mornings and late nites starting last Thursday. Today I am going to rest.

I am not totally useless, I can be used as a bad example.

Never look down on someone, unless they are going down on you.

Thanks...

As I have told you before.... when you come down, if you want to do tandems, you can. If you don't want to, I won't try to make you.

I am approaching tandem 1000. Queen B is wanting to go on that one and try to get an SCR. Not totally sure if that meets the rule, but everyone wants to pour on her anyway.

Todd,
After having been to your wonderful DZ and getting to make a jump with you, I can understand why the Bush event happened at your DZ.
Way to go guy.
See ya in Sept.

Thanks, but I think logistics had the most to do with it.
Right place, right time.

where is the dz that bush jumped at?

Skydiving, a sport you can fall for.

He jumped at College Station TX. Nearest Dz is Skydive Aggieland just a few miles down the road.

Yes he jumped at Skydive Aggieland. I am told I was on Fox News catching tandems. I would be the only one in a Skydive Aggieland shirt. It mostly aired prior to his big jump at the library. I was busy at the DZ then.

Hey Todd,

I'll add my praise. I had a great time on Thursday when we flew up from Waller with the otter. It was great to see some former students hard into the sport. (kinda embarrased I didn't remember names but oh well).

It was a pleasure to personally meet George and Barbara Busch. It still amazes me how funny he is in person.

And, in the usual knights fasion, the GK were great. I thought their "2000" foot hop&pop was great. By the time they were ready to leave we were at 7K so the spotter turned around, yelled "SPEED STAR" and climbed out. WOO-HOO.

I owe beer for my first jump at aggieland. And I always pay my beer debts.

That's awesome man! I would imagine Bush's jump will be really good for the sport. (Not that this was his first one).

The FAKE KRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMER!!!!!!!!!

I am just glad you finally got to jump with us.

Let's see we had bad weather at a boogie, we had botched AFF plans more than once, I was started to think you were jinxed. I had a blast as well.

It should be good nation wide.

I just returned another email to a jumper wanting to schedule in August for his birthday.
