LouDiamond 1 #1 March 21, 2004 Today I finially got to take Neil up for his first flight. We had talked a few months ago about his first flight and dialing his gear in for Birdman flights. I hadn't heard from him in a while but this morning he called me while I was at the DZ and he was on his way. Also interested in flying was BlueSBdeath(Arvel) and we too had talked about going up for a flight. Well everything came together and we all hooked up and got the suits on. After their ground training we headed to the plane for a 5 way, Dragontail and Neil's friend Ryan joined us. The jump was interesting to say the least and we all had fun. Some people took the scenic route and went to see how the grass was growing at the sod farm down the road Who loves ya Arvel? Neil, Ryan and I went back up for another round. Neil was kill'n it and when he finially looked over at me I was afraid he was going to hurt his face he was smiling so hard. We had some nice puffy clouds below us to zoom around that made it fun. Had the dragon not begun to raise his head on the ground we would of jumped more but the winds were manky to say the least. Hopefully tomorrow will be sunny and we can get a few more flights in. BTW Neil and Arvel.....BEER!!"It's just skydiving..additional drama is not required" Some people dream about flying, I live my dream SKYMONKEY PUBLISHING Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
