  3. The Slave Trade is way past tense and was completely legal until it was abolished... the british should however apologise and Cough up for Dishonouring the Treaty of Waitangi(between the English and the Maori just shy of 200 years ago, The New Zealand govornment is currently settling the issue with the NZ maori aand is costing our country 100's of 1000000's of $$ for the greed and corruption of the english during the occupation of New Zealand. This happened everywhere in the world but most countries are too corrupt to consider the native peoples rights. the english are resposible for the treaty of Waitangi because they signed it before New Zraland was govorned by Itself. I say cough up you poms! "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will see peace." - 'Jimi' Hendrix

  5. Like my mothers holier than thou religous ex-partner that would preach christianity and morality and question my self an my brothers ethics for not attending church and the mother fucker blames my brother (that is open about his liking of porn) on the 'teen' porn found on my mums computer. he lied to try to cover his ass but didn't realise the honesty within our family and made himself look like a schmuck, he then dumped my old lady for another unsuspecting woman and still preaches his faith and morality. the bible can forgive any sin if it is interpreted in your favour. not all christians are like that but many are!

  7. Fuck Ogre, i wouldn't want to give him the satisfaction of another hit to his site. On the British Petrolium site i scored 13 but 7 of those points were because of my 30+ short haul flights.....(skydiving) otherwise i would score 6 tonnes per year! not too bad. we have solar power here at work through nessessety rather than choice. the electricity is unreliable in Tanzania.

  10. longer and faster swoops by the same person in the same conditions is enough for me! dunno about you though?
  11. This Elmer Sperry creature was and onto it cat huh! A little bit like the guy in Ashburton. A small town in Canterbury(my home province), New Zealand that Claimed to fly a similar aircraft to the Wright brothers BEFORE they did. Even though he may not have been successful he had the Write Idea (no pun intended)he even invented a crude version of the helecopter with his 5th or so prototype of an aircraft. the helecopter was too heavy but the principle was definately there! Can't remember his name... oh here he is Richard William Pearse (3 December 1877 — 29 July 1953), a farmer and inventor who emigrated from Cornwall to New Zealand, experimented with flying machines in the early 20th century. Following such aviation pioneers as Clement Ader and Samuel Pierpont Langley, he reputedly flew a powered heavier-than-air machine on 31 March 1903, some nine months before the Wright brothers. The documentary evidence to support such a claim remains open to interpretation, however, and he did not match the Wrights' achievement of photographing flights. Pearse later claimed his experiments were made in 1904 and were unsuccessful. Pearse started farming on 100 acres (400,000 m²) in 1898 at Waitohi in South Canterbury, but he never became a keen farmer, having much more interest in engineering. He had wanted to study engineering at an advanced level, but his family did not have the money, having already sent his older brother, Tom, to medical school. Richard resorted to inventing instead. I think it is important that these type of people remain in the history books, I guess that is why the internet is a great unbias history book but needs to be interpreted properly.

  12. I noticed our new sigmas have vectran for the kill lines now. if you have a well made pilote chute then it should last at least a few kill lines? "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will see peace." - 'Jimi' Hendrix
  13. Had Jim Slaton not been banned from this site then he would have explained to you by now that they did many tests with pressurised stabalisers and No sabalisers. and found the no stabaliser configuration to produce less drag and more performance. If you do a search it was all well explained on here some time ago. stablisers are for the opening sequence. one the parachute is open they simply produce Drag.

  14. I wouldn't have a clue about the neos let alone this new thing. Icarus spain is doing all that stuff. i only know about NZaerosports canopies, they dont/cant make the neos or reserve as Icarus spain don't/can't make Daedalus canopies. all seems a bit wierd to me. But NZaerosports look after myself and leigh with our freestyle goals so I can only say good things about Gyro and the Guys there!

  16. Yes, you are correct they never should have. like I mentioned in 2005 if you solve your problems with fighting then you should book yourself in for an anger management programme. you will just complicate your life and lose your friends if you carry on this way!

    That shit needs to be in the swooping forum. The photographers canopy looked like a paraglider design but the one in front at the take off looked more like a parachute? "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will see peace." - 'Jimi' Hendrix
