  4. "Is it square and does it flare?". To me that canopy failed the controlability test and as a student it would have gone bye-bye. Did he make the right decision to land it? If he walked away OK and learnt something then pretty much yes but i would not have done the same. CJP Gods don't kill people. People with Gods kill people

  9. It really doesn't need remaking - part of the joy of the film is the way it is made and the wonderful acting and terrible special effects. plus where are they going to get real lancaster bombers? CJP Gods don't kill people. People with Gods kill people
  10. By the way I am all for keeping it as Nigger. Mind you I am also all for not making a remake of an awesome film. CJP Gods don't kill people. People with Gods kill people
  11. Sir David frost has bought the rights to remake the classic 1954 film 'The Dambusters'. For those who don't know this is a war time flick about barnes Wallis' bouncing bombs and the attacks on several German damns. It is one of my favourites and aside from the fact that I dislike remakes there has been some discussion as to the naming of Captain Guy Gibsons dog - Nigger. The dog actually plays a reasonably large part in the film and is reffered to regularly. On a recent UK TV screening the channel bleeped out the dogs name for political correctness reasons. So bearing in mind most people who watch the remake will have seen the original should Nigger be called in the remake or should we change history and call him Blacky or Spot? And should we politically correct the past for the future? Clarification - Yes/No poll is should the dog stay as Nigger? CJP Gods don't kill people. People with Gods kill people
  12. I can't imagine that many kids have ever got hold of their parent's reserve canopies and killed someone though. Therein lies the difference. I still balk from the 'they would have killed them with a hammer/rock/badger/turnip/' response. How many people would the DC sniper have killed if he had had to jump people with a hammer? Edited to add:What am I doing on here - I should be out enjoying our new licensing laws! CJP Gods don't kill people. People with Gods kill people
  13. In my limited experience what the rig is made with will vary from what it ends up with a few years down the line. I had a 170 main and a 160 reserve. Now I have a 150 main and a 160 reserve as I have downsized mains but not container. I wouldn't get too twisted up in it except that when choosing a rig ensure you are happy flying a higher loaded reserve (if it is smaller), as well as considering the main. When I got my first rig one I was looking at had a 190 main and a 160 reserve but I wasn't happy with the 160 so I shopped around. And of course - speak to instructors and ignore everything I say.

  14. Just to put that in perspective if you look at www.leoka.com to see that in the US over the last 10 yrs there has been ana average of over 60 policemen/Law Enforcement officers killed each year. CJP Gods don't kill people. People with Gods kill people
  15. In the UK they quite often do. You must remember we had the purported 'murder' last year and there have been a number of other incidents that have been suspicious so I think it helps if the police do state that they believe it is not.

  17. Hi. I have just got Premiere Pro 1.5 and I have fallen at the first hurdle. For some reason I can't get the programme to see my Sony PC108 in order to capture video. The Camcorder is attached via firewire but is not listed in the device control setup options (only 100, 101 & 120 listed), nor can I find it online. Any suggestion... CJP Gods don't kill people.

  23. 3 weeks to go til my first born. I have had thoughts about taking a break for a while but I think the UK winter will do that for me. The problem I have is that a friend of mine had a nasty BASE accident. The day before he had hurt his ankle and I asked him if it was worth it and he said "definitely". When he finally became compus mentus again 3 months after the accident I asked the same question and he said "no way". I keep thinking about this because if i have an accident and my kid doesn't get to know me it would so not have been worth it. I do love this sport and I intend to do everything to avoid getting hurt but the only surefire why to avoid dying skydiving is to not skydive. That said, shit happens everywhere else in the world and other things could go wrong in your life. It's you're call to make and no one elses - if you are looking for reassurances to make you're decision then you shouldn't, don't justify your actions through the actions of others - ultimately the responsibility lies with you, as mine does with me. That was pretty unhelpful wasn't it!? CJP Gods don't kill people. People with Gods kill people

  25. From your link: I would assume that the answer to that particular question is 'never'. I find this amusing and yet somehow almost offensive. After the article got off to such a good start I couldn't bring myself to read any further. CJP Gods don't kill people. People with Gods kill people
