  1. Heeeeeeeeeyyyyyyyy..........Freak Brother!
  2. Some sort of leather strap and a symbol that resembled a ........oh don't make me say it and blush....
  3. Good job Mark. I hope your efforts will be noticed by that TV station. I also hope the FAA goes after this joker for his antics and puts him in his place. Chris Schindler www.diverdriver.com ATP/D-19012 FB #4125
  4. Yah I know. I flew with Geoff Farrington on the 300-way. People keep saying that the USPA should jump in here to help. I just asked if anyone has called the USPA. I imagine the Ferringtons will know whether they want any more help from USPA HQ. Chris
  5. bahahahhahaha.......bhahahhahaha..... Ok seriously. The 300-way DVD should be coming out any time. I believe there is an order form for it on www.300-way.com
  6. This might be an odd question but has any one from Kapowsin called USPA for assistance? Chris
  7. January 12th? Wow didn't know there was another attempt going on. Where did it happen at?
  8. People might not like the idea but a lawsuit for defamation might be a start to making the TV station shake a bit. Chris
  9. Jim, I happen to agree with you. I think Reagan should have done time in jail for saying he didn't negotiate with terrorist but was trading arms the whole time. We have created the problems we are dealing with. But that doesn't mean we shouldn't deal with them. We tried to send in humanitarian aid to Somalia. People in the field asked for more support to remove the war lords. Instead they were told to take them anyway without the armored support. Then we saw service men dragged through the streets while crowds cheered. I felt we should have gone right back in there and kicked ass to rid that country of the war lords and bring real help to those people. But the general US public was so shocked they wanted a pull out. What kind of tribute is that to our fallen service men who died there? I think that's disgraceful. I say we have no clue in how to provide real aid to a country. North Korea case in point. They are demanding more and more financial support "or else". The people we give aid to don't even appreciate it. That's the thanks we get. We were the largest supporter of humanitarian aid in Afghanistan BEFORE 9/11. Did they appreciate it? Yah they did. They hi-jacked 4 planes and flew them into buildings. Yah, that's appreciation for our aid. Chris
  10. Don't forget his address Mark. Name : DOW, JEFFREY WELLINGTON Pilot's Address : 14719 275TH ST E GRAHAM, WA, 98338-8752
  11. Yah, but how much does it cost to have troops sitting over there enforcing the UN no fly zone endlessly for the past 11 years? Putting them in harms way with no end in sight is a higher price than an cost for bullets. We need to finish this conflict finally and then get our troops home. Enough is enough. Let's quit screwing around with meaningless UN resolutions. Chris
  12. 91.13 is exactly what I'm referring to. But unfortunately I don't believe they will do anything until there is a collision. Call me cynical. I hope that the feds would act on video made by the DZ about this pilot's antics. That would be helpful to all DZs around the nation. Chris Schindler www.diverdriver.com ATP/D-19012 FB #4125
  13. I do have to agree with this. I'm not even sure why people are freaking out...it's her hair. If turning my hair blue made my grandma happy, I'd probably do it (hmm...okay, maybe not anymore since my work would fire me)...it doesn't mean that she has some all powerful control over me, it's just that I'm willing to compromise something that doesn't matter much. It's hair people!!!!! Who cares if her husband likes it better blonde/brunette? Ummm.......Val, it's this comment from her: She's afraid of her husband? That comes across as pretty onerous. Maybe it's a poor choice of words on her part. Care to clear that up Freebird?
  14. I know! It's like a car accident on the highway! You don't want to look but you can't help it. And then you can't look away. You have to watch! And I wasn't crying at the end. I had something in my eye. I think an eyelash.
  15. Well, you can't "break" a NOTAM. It's a NOtice To Airman. It is NOT the DZs airspace alone. It is merely advisory. In the U.S. we don't own the sky. No one owns the sky. Certain restrictions can be put on airspace around busy airports and there is different levels of restriction. But just having a NOTAM out that you are skydiving doesn't mean that you can clear the skies of all traffic. Is it dumb? Yes. Is this guy a neglegant hazard for flying under jumpers at Kapowsin? Yes again. But the impression that a DZ somehow owns the airspace above it is incorrect. There is nothing the FAA will do for just flying through a DZ. Now if there was a collision then the FAA might site the pilot for trasgressing an active DZ and for not checking his NOTAMs. But that's only after the fact. And I agree that is sad.

  16. These moments only happen once. There's more to life than skydiving. Walk in the ceremony and have your family with you. I'm sure they've been supportive of you over the years so it is important to them.
  17. FAA site for the daily intake (where I usually get my "first word"): http://www2.faa.gov/avr/aai/iirform.htm NTSB site broken down by month (these are only "Accidents" and not "Incidents" as defined by NTSB 830): http://www2.faa.gov/avr/aai/iirform.htm Jump Plane accidents (my site): http://www.diverdriver.com/Accidents/accidents.htm Chris Schindler www.diverdriver.com ATP/D-19012 FB #4125
  18. Lou, easy, the hot fork might be in your future too. DZ.com rules: The rules are: 1) No personal attacks. None.
  19. [Can't breathe......bwahahahahhahahhahahahahhahahha] Mustafa! I always wondered where Dr. Evil sent him after burning him and shooting him right in the arm. Now I know!
  20. You must be joking. Your husband -made- you die your hair and you are afraid to go back because of his response? Does anyone else see this as a problem?
  21. oh...I saw your sig line and thought that it wasn't really going to be on. I looked through the satelite guide and didn't see that show listed.....hmmmmm....still hoping to tape it. Chris
  22. Where did you see this listing? Chris
  23. Sadly, they do. "My anaconda don't want nun unless you got buns hun!.....Baby got back.. din din din dindin dindin dindin dindin dindin dindin dindin din
