After ordering a brand new CYPRES 2 from Square 1 a couple of weeks ago, I receive a snail mail letter from some customs broker person. The claim is that the sender has not provided them with a description of the shipment, the quantities and values of the goods and the country of manufacture. Attached to the letter is the customs declaration, which says: List of Contents: CYPRES 2. Qty: 1 Value: $1225.00 USD. I also notice that it has no field for the country of manufacture, presumably because it is not required. Which part of one unit worth $1225.00 did they not understand?

I kept working during school, saved money during the off season, and bought cheap used gear from dz.com without trying it first. EDITED TO ADD: the gear was cheap but definitely not crappy. In fact, it was in perfect condition. A nice Triathlon in a Javelin and a reserve with no jumps on it. -- Toggle Whippin' Yahoo Skydiving is easy.

I'm only at 61, but I don't think I will stop logging any time soon. I like having a log book.

Definitely I'm downsizing and the main rigger and the DZO set up a 215 Falcon for me to use. I think I'm almost ready to move on, but I still need to put one or two jumps on it for sure.

Yes, watched mine being packed and assisted with it's inspection.

I am grateful for all the various circumstances that lead to my skydiving binge. Grateful that I'm in a good school learning subjects with great teachers that I really enjoy.

I don't know anything about what you're writing, but it sounds like your program is getting more complicated than it should. If your head begins to swim from its design, take a step back and add abstraction levels. It doesn't take very long but it breaks the code down into manageable components that you can then black box and not worry about their implementations. But being 8 years in the business you probably understand all this Have you looked at .NET? VB6, C++ are available almost directly, C# is very similar to Java, I don't know about MapObjects but you could work something out. The benefit is that .NET is simply one language in many forms, not different languages. You can use everything, every available language, all at once, and you don't need to make any ActiveX components or COM object models or any such crap. You can literally implement different methods of the same class in five different languages, add them all to the project, hit compile, and watch it run. It's more complicated than that, of course, but not by much. I know what a pain in the arse it is to integrate languages in MS's old model (it's done in the project I'm working with now), and .NET is heaven after that. -- Toggle Whippin' Yahoo Skydiving is easy.
