Found this in some stuff from closed dz. Don't remember whose it was. We had to make our own.

I had one mounted on a ProTec. They weren't very loud so I rarely heard it. As a joke, I set it so it would go off whenever I dropped it! I had a call from our DZ gear store about 3 years ago wanting to know if I knew how to set one. A novice had gotten a hold of one and wanted to try it out. I showed him how to set it and it worked just fine.

I had one in the early 70s and they just weren't loud enough (in a Bell 500 helmet at least).

I still have mine and it still works.

Steve Snyder was a real pioneer: audibles, AADs, thin altimeters etc.

Steve met his end in an F 86 surplus fighter, got too slow on a flyby.

2018 marks half a century as a skydiver. Trained by the late Perry Stevens D-51 in 1968.

Mr Snyder was a man ahead of his time.

If he had access to modern technology some of his pioneering gear would have been a lot more successful.

Didn't Steve put out the first squares canopies. Maybe mid late 60s. And lots of other major firsts.

If anyone remembers some of Steve Snyder other firsts let's hear it if you have the time.

Snyder got credit for many things but there was a team of people that did a lot of the work.
