Classic 2

Recommended Posts

Where abouts are you based? How many jumps do you have? There may be some experienced wingsuiters or instructors in your area that could give you some help?

Now may be a good time to fill in your profile ;)

he didn't ask about that stuff, he just asked for a manual.. if he'd read more things in this forum, he'd be best not answering your Q's.



You're right, theres no way in the world he only has 90 jumps, aquired a wingsuit and wants to learn to fly on his own... Also, you're right, suggesting he also found someone to talk to about wingsuiting was a stupid idea. 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'm just saying that there is no reason to jump the gun on things.

and so what? you are going to police him over the forums? Maybe you will be lucky if you would get him to this twice if he fell into that scenario. Even if he did have 90 jumps and wanted to wingsuit, and his DZO and ST&A allowed him to do it, more power to him and shame on those people.. or maybe he's in the UK and the BPA will stop him.

yup, you are right. there are better ways to state what you are saying here from your post above... and btw he did say he has "a friend" from which he got the suit from. ;)

Is there an un official birdman site?



Here.





BS...:S Here is his what he clearly posted:

"This site is in no way associated with Bird-Man, Inc or bird-man.com
© 2003-2005 Flybirdman.com - All Rights Reserved"



Kevin website is in no way bias. He tries to have all wingsuit information available and he has some very informative information there about all wingsuits.
He just may have chosen the wrong name, but then again, Birdman was the only wingsuit maker when he started the website.

Sorry. 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.
