Use good oil. Be wary of the redline and temperature. Should be fine and dandy for a LONG time. Besides that, don't hit anything, drive erratically and be a jackass, and by all means, look out for motorcycles. My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto

Lay random safety wire bits, oil, bolts, lawnmower carburetors, etc on the ground under the engine. Pee under the wing just before the pilot does a pre-flight. He'll run his finger through the puddle to see if there's a fuel leak. My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto

Kimmels response is humorous in a way but it's not much of a real blow (so to speak) to anyone. My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto

True but he was just doing a Stoppie when the forks blew, so chances are he fell at a fairly low speed. I've looked for the after shot of that but haven't found it. My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto

I felt a 7.1 a while back. It was hard to tell being approximately 10 miles from the epicenter. It was just a bunch of shaking and breaking so it was difficult to tell what it was. My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto

It's just a parachute. Canopy control checks solve many issues. I've landed a 109, 120, 135, numerous times and weigh approximately 150 minus gear. If the only time a person flares a canopy is for the landing, it's no wonder they pound in. The Micro-Raven is not a spectacular canopy. They will, however, land just fine as long as you fly it how it wants you to, rather than how you want to. Good luck. My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto

Of the 2 rigs, the VooDoo is more comfortable. They're both fine rigs but my preference leans toward the VooDoo, or in your case, the Talon FS, for comfort and rigging ease. Many VooDoo owners that have switched to Mirage comment they VooDoo was much more comfortable. Good luck. You'll be fine with either.

video excerpts from "Outrageous Pack Jobs and Canopy Control"
hookitt replied to peek's topic in Gear and Rigging
That was pretty cool. I used to experiment a lot with my Stiletto and my Xaos 27 cell by stack packing, roll packing, rolling the nose, rolling one side of the nose...etc and sure enough they worked fine. It was often just to prove a point. The stackpack you use for that clip is pretty funny. Nice job, I'd like to see the rest. My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry...

Seriously? Bad for the sport? How? Even if he went in, how is it bad for the sport? surely it would be bad for some people but as a whole, who cares. Do you think people en masse will suddenly have the urge to jump with out a rig? Most skydivers don't even know who Travis is let alone he jumped without a rig. It was pretty ballsy and I won't put it into the GOOD idea category but certainly have no inclination to believe it was bad for anything. Personally, I think it's a bad idea to put thoughts in the heads of non-jumpers that skydiving is a good idea. But if someone wants to jump, I'll be happy to teach them. Now for the short reply: Awesome! My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto

Maybe but definitely not when he jumped. The plane was supposedly on the way to Mexico. With certainty, more survivable conditions would have become available on the trek south. My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto

I always seem to miss the fun! Leave it to me to be sick that weekend. Mikhail, don't over think it. While you were in the air you thought it out rather quickly and dealt with it. Don't pull low, unless you are. Seems like your next step was appropriate. Quite honestly, if I found myself just over a grand with linetwists I was even remotely unsure of, I'd have cutaway as well. Just know your alti. Message to Jsax... were you one of those low people on an MJ load sometime back? Who's fault, his or yours? I say it was yours so put the letter F and the letter O together wherever you see fit . My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto

Not at all. Rather than a wear issue, it's probably an action Rob has issue with. The POTENTIAL for a lot of wear to suddenly occur is much higher. Should the passenger parachute open prematurely, a lot of nylon parts will rub together rapidly. Nylon parts may be trying to occupy the same space as a human appengage as well. The action has the possibility of causing destruction, possible injury or death. Sigma Harnesses are great for it though. The belly strap is rather comfortable. A hard openening feels like nothing for the passenger. You can watch the tandem instructors face grimace while he catches his breath ... or so I've heard.

I don't have a caption for that incredible patch work display. Simply amazing. The CCIE comment is great though. My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto

Start with downloading the admin Service Pack 2 and re-installing it. Then perform the rest of the windows critical updates. You may need to go to the computer manufacturer website and download chipset and usb drivers as well. My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto
