I have a set of risers that will fire the right brake on about every other opening if anybody would like to try them. Replying to: Re: Stall On Jump Run Emergency Procedure? by billvon If the plane is unrecoverable then exiting is a very very good idea.

Another question. Is there more than one model of cx110. I saw one in chinamart for 319.00 today. Replying to: Re: Stall On Jump Run Emergency Procedure? by billvon If the plane is unrecoverable then exiting is a very very good idea.

Interested in moving up to something in the CX series. The DZ has some older editing equiptment and still does everything in DV tape. Can you transfer from say a cx100 to a TRV series digital tape camera without degrading the quality?

A nice small, thin rig that would be comfortable to wear by a skydiver pilot. Replying to: Re: Stall On Jump Run Emergency Procedure? by billvon If the plane is unrecoverable then exiting is a very very good idea.

When did YouTube videos of tv shows become an incident? Replying to: Re: Stall On Jump Run Emergency Procedure? by billvon If the plane is unrecoverable then exiting is a very very good idea.

Did you at least get some pictures out of it? My gopro fogged up a little and I had to do a lot of holding into the sun so I didn't get as good a quality pictures as I was hoping for. The countour did pretty good for video. Replying to: Re: Stall On Jump Run Emergency Procedure? by billvon If the plane is unrecoverable then exiting is a very very good idea.

If you can only afford $150 for a canopy you should find another sport until you have more money. Replying to: Re: Stall On Jump Run Emergency Procedure? by billvon If the plane is unrecoverable then exiting is a very very good idea.

I met Ian at Lost Prairie. We partied up at the fire tower. I was wearing a Herd shirt, and he told me that he had one from a Herd Boogie years ago and he thought it was packed away in a duffle bag somewhere. Before we left that year I gave him that shirt and you would have thought I gave him a million dollars.

The early 182's don't have an oil filter, only a screen and that's why the 25 hour oil change. Even with a filter STC it only goes to 50 hours. A case of synthetic oil cost about $80 bucks. They hold 12 quarts. Replying to: Re: Stall On Jump Run Emergency Procedure? by billvon If the plane is unrecoverable then exiting is a very very good idea.

I've done the Blue Hole jump twice and never saw anyone with a jump suit. Just shorts and bathing suits, and a few naked. Personally I think its a perfect GoPro application.

Hey lets meet up and discuss the difference between a horseshoe and a ponyshoe. Should be there around 3 Thursday afternoon. Replying to: Re: Stall On Jump Run Emergency Procedure? by billvon If the plane is unrecoverable then exiting is a very very good idea.

Just curious as to why you psycho-packed it...? Have you tried pro or flat packing it? Replying to: Re: Stall On Jump Run Emergency Procedure? by billvon If the plane is unrecoverable then exiting is a very very good idea.

I'll concede to Pops if he'll agree to call it a ponyshoe. Replying to: Re: Stall On Jump Run Emergency Procedure? by billvon If the plane is unrecoverable then exiting is a very very good idea.

So if somebody tumbles during deployment and gets their leg tangeled in the lines and is hanging upside down under an open canopy that would be a horseshoe? Replying to: Re: Stall On Jump Run Emergency Procedure? by billvon If the plane is unrecoverable then exiting is a very very good idea.

"...yet his main remained snagged somehow on the container,....Upon landing he found that one of the main risers had snagged on the reserve container. " Right there. He said the guy had some type of malfunction.He cut it away and the main riser had snagged the reserve container. How is that a hores shoe? http://www.dropzone.com/safety/emergencies/emergency_canopy_malfunctions.shtml Horseshoe This malfunction can result from bad maintenance, failure to check equipment and incompatible canopy/container systems. It can happen when the locking pin or ripcord is dislodged from the closing loop, allowing the bagged canopy to escape before you have removed the pilot chute from its stowage pocket. The horseshoe can occur if you tumble during the deployment sequence, allowing the pilot chute to catch on your foot, your arm, or some other part of your body, but these are rare occurrences today. Another possibility is a poor launch of a pilot chute from your container, allowing it to fall back into your “burble” (the partial vacuum behind you) where it can dance around and snag on something, preventing it from properly deploying. Improper hand deploy procedures can lead to the pilot chute being caught on your arm. Horse Shoe The danger of a horseshoe malfunction is that a pulled reserve may tangle with the horse-shoed main as it tries to deploy. If you experience a horseshoe, and you are using a hand deployment technique, pull the main’s hand deploy pilot chute immediately. Then, and even if you can’t pull the main hand deploy pilot chute, execute a breakaway and deploy the reserve. Chances are that there will be enough drag on the lines and canopy to separate the risers from their attachment points and present only a single line of “garbage” for the reserve to clear (rather than a horseshoed main). At least thats what I thought a horseshoe is. Replying to: Re: Stall On Jump Run Emergency Procedure? by billvon If the plane is unrecoverable then exiting is a very very good idea.
