  1. The take away from this is: the how and why when it doesn't... Ground speed is the primary tool used to determine separation, HOWEVER, the holding area prior to boarding is where the IMPORTANT part takes place: Planning each and every load, because everyone is different. YOU must be cognizant of what the other groups around YOU are doing... THIS matters just as much as the actual separation.

    What a week...

    STAY POSITIVE! You'll be up and running in no time.
  3. I was a little up set when I took Brian's canopy course and learned this technique. Up set that I wasn't taught this way from day one! It just makes sense...

    Kinda like choosing to avoid cruise ships... Be smarter than the virus!
  5. ATAIR canopies come with a nice manual which shows just how easy it is! FYI ;)
  6. One doesn't buy karma, it's an exchange. Good luck with that.
  7. OR, break it down even further: A fragile eco system that can't continue to support the volume of dumb asses that inhabit the region.
  8. The curvature is readily evident from the top of Pikes Peak. 14K... Anyone can drive it, take the long walk.
  9. Not to beat you up, but this is a sport where I buy the upper end merch, rather than the lowest bidder... You get what you pay for. Lessons learned, thanks for sharing. We will do the same. ALSO, I bought a new analog alti from them as a noob, it worked for two years before the needle fell off!

  11. He has an abundance of common sense. And he's a beast! Funny too. :)
  12. I'll part with my Squirrel Funk wingsuit for 600.00 US dollars. Feel free to discover ALL the secrets, right before your eyes! It's still VERY air worthy by the way...
  13. stabilizer lines (they don't always "fall" along the others...) I'm guessing that is what you are looking for.
  14. I gave him the benefit of my doubt.
  15. Just wait for The Wall II, keeping out all those pesky fucking Canadians! KIDDING, I wish I had the resources to become an EXPAT!
  16. Am I crazy, or is there a correlation between Obama haters and Trump lovers??? Seems like a trend, that's all...
  17. NAILED IT! So, more of the same? Sprinkle in those pesky tornado's too. So what do you attribute all of these events too? PS, just ONE snow event (if you call a couple inches of heavy wet snow an event) so far here in the borough...
  18. Speakers Corner 6 A Soap Box in Cyber Space. This is the place to discuss politics, guns, religion and any other topic you feel the need to address from your soap box. Debates may get heated in here but the forum rules apply as everywhere else. ANY!!!
  19. Bee keeping, I'd really like to discuss bee keeping! Any fellow keepers lurking? I dove into it last spring for the 1st time, and honestly, it's one of the most rewarding things I've ever immersed myself in. I can be frequently heard saying "I don't ever see myself not keeping bees in the future"!
  20. Welcome to the conversation DAVE, I'm obviously speaking of Tony in FL and NOT the SQL boys. Carry on. P.S. It's my personal experience that Asians take A LOT of pride in there work, and it shows.
  21. I know the crew, I know the suits, I also know a thing or two about successful marketing, and a couple/few are doing it right. But I digress. It is nice to have an AMERICAN MADE product as an option!
  22. Sooooo, about that Hog???
