The fact he mentioned he wanted it for 'safe flights' in no way should be taken as in indication that it would be in anyway beneficial for him to speak to someone with at least *some* wingsuit experience.

I wasn't trying to say that his web site was pro-Birdman. Just that it offers an alternative to the manufacturers official site for product information, manuals, technical articles, etc. I do think that it originally started life as the "official" Birdman web site, but that Birdman eventually decided to "hire" (I think it was all sponsorship and such, no actual cash) a different web guy to do their web site, after Kevin had the site well on it's way to completion. He then morphed it into the stand-alone, non-affiliated site that it is today.-- Tom Aiello Tom@SnakeRiverBASE.com SnakeRiverBASE.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Join the conversation You can post now and register later.
