You are not living on the edge if you are not speaking English with an american accent. You missed to quote-acknowledge that portion of my prior post. If you don't think they hate americans, then all I have seen, heard and listened must be a figment of my imagination.

I would advice you to get some medical attention in regards to that tailbone pain. You could have a fracture, if you hurt it again (while is healing) you could end up in worse, worse shape....

...and your other good buddy residing on 10 Downing Street was quite elogious as well. So were may other state leader. But thanks for playing the French card. If you keep trying that hard, we may, one day, start disliking Americans... May? Try to speak english in France with an american accent.....It seems you haven't been in your home land for quite a while "According to some of the conservatives here, it sounds like it's fine to beat your wide - as long as she had it coming." -Billvon

Hmm, I am very curious as to what you use to measure the attacks. Here are a few examples in this thread: I guess it is ok for them to call us all sort of things with an arrogant perception of superiority and more “cultured” values, and subtle insults. I call bullshit on that. PJ is merely asking a question, and not saying something on the lines of take your sad ass...... Edited to add: If being a "damn uppity colonial" is politically correct then you should give me the ok to use towel head to describe the terrorists...

But Grant, don't you know it's the victims fault, they should be able to run, according to his theory. "According to some of the conservatives here, it sounds like it's fine to beat your wide - as long as she had it coming." -Billvon

I am!!! "According to some of the conservatives here, it sounds like it's fine to beat your wide - as long as she had it coming." -Billvon

I absolutely agree that she needs to talk to her instructors and knowing the area (if studying a map helps) is good. But I am concerned that you're trying to suggest that someone needs to set a flight plan so that they except to be in the same spot in the sky at the same altitude on every jump. Each jump is unique and conditions from one jump to the next will never be the same (weather conditions change, every exit out of the aircraft will leave you in a different part of the sky and air traffic will always differ). People need to learn (through instruction and experience) how to fly their canopies in this ever so changing dynamic environment. So to suggest that one expects to be in the same part of the sky at the same altitude is wrong, at least wrong in my mind. You are missing the portion of that date's condition. In the IRM's it is encouraged to make a flight plan with the student for each individual jump. If you have not dealt with students before, nor particiapte in any instructional rating I would advice you read the actual IRM's and sims. Giving the experience you will find that the flight plan can be rotated and adjusted accordingly, even if the wind direction, speeds change while they are going to altitude. Given the particular condition of her, she needs to get more used to that particular terrain, not using techniques that could be quite complicated for novices. It is customary that AFF instructors go to the LZ - map with the student and go over the landing pattern, and not "if a point of reference is rising to the horizon"....that is for later. Let them get acquainted with their particular LZ. "According to some of the conservatives here, it sounds like it's fine to beat your wide - as long as she had it coming." -Billvon

You should pound it to oblivion and get on of those chinese recipe for a nice lunch. Seriously, it seems that you will be in for some serious responsibility IMO... Good luck on that and blue skies.

Cora, I have to agree with Rev... "According to some of the conservatives here, it sounds like it's fine to beat your wide - as long as she had it coming." -Billvon

Be careful and take advice with a grain of salt. RW with other people will mean at your current experience a lonfer break off altitude, at least 2K above the alti you plan to deploy. You want to ensure plenty of horizontal separation and not breaking off at 4k deploying at 3.5-3K. Make sure you learn how to track, and talk to your instructors, they will be more than willing to educate you in these matters. "According to some of the conservatives here, it sounds like it's fine to beat your wide - as long as she had it coming." -Billvon

I would advice that first you talk to your instructors, second have them help you make a flight plan, and study the map, with detail and see where your flight plan is applied (according to that date's conditions) to this map. Then you will know exactly where you need to be at certain altitudes and have alternatives. Learn to fly your canopy, with flat turns. Relax and talk some more to your instructors.

Mike, that decision is up to you. However, you should talk to her (I think she is a terrific gal), and have this same conversation with her, before you make a decision. Skydiving could be just one more part of your life, but you should be a compilation of parts to be a whole person. If you are going to make a living out of it, then I would advice to go ahead and do it, but that you need to talk to your SO. Blue skies.

That is . Props to you weegegirl! "According to some of the conservatives here, it sounds like it's fine to beat your wide - as long as she had it coming." -Billvon

As far as a secret goes, if it is not a top government secret that is, you should be upfront. Living a lie and pretending someone you are not is imply a falacy, dream world. Better to live those intense passionate moments when both are open to each other's souls without regrets.

I don't think you will have a problem someone snubbing you with that thing pointed at them "According to some of the conservatives here, it sounds like it's fine to beat your wide - as long as she had it coming." -Billvon

There is a very slim chance she will ever post in these forums, so no need to worry there, just like the good ole queen. "According to some of the conservatives here, it sounds like it's fine to beat your wide - as long as she had it coming." -Billvon

As long as it does not threaten the beavers.....I'll be fine with that "According to some of the conservatives here, it sounds like it's fine to beat your wide - as long as she had it coming." -Billvon

And which faces would that be, European Liberals? I personally don't find being back to an abusive, irrespective colony lifestyle anywhere near funny. "According to some of the conservatives here, it sounds like it's fine to beat your wide - as long as she had it coming." -Billvon

I think he agrees with the 3rd choice. "According to some of the conservatives here, it sounds like it's fine to beat your wide - as long as she had it coming." -Billvon

It is fixed... "According to some of the conservatives here, it sounds like it's fine to beat your wide - as long as she had it coming." -Billvon

Hey and where is the 3rd option the Queen is a whore? "According to some of the conservatives here, it sounds like it's fine to beat your wide - as long as she had it coming." -Billvon

I'll be back for Thanksgiving.... It will not suck "According to some of the conservatives here, it sounds like it's fine to beat your wide - as long as she had it coming." -Billvon

Good post. Especially for those who just beginning to learn the game ... What is a NJ? "According to some of the conservatives here, it sounds like it's fine to beat your wide - as long as she had it coming." -Billvon
