    Brake Repair

    take a picture of the caliper and PM it to me. I will help you... it is easy. I want you to PM it, because I may not check back in here... you need to just lube the "float" part, or "pins" of the floating caliper. very routine.
  4. you will learn alot in skydiving. this is one of those things... don't worry about it.
  5. you need to understand that these measurements do not go across to other jumpsuit manufacturers. this is for liquid sky suits measurements... freakin awesome video though isn't it?

    so what the fuck is this all about?....
  7. that is a very BOLD statement Ian. Huh? Just saying I've done the 'testing' stuff before and didn't like it much - remember all the line/trim changes that I was messing with? It's a pretty simple statement. I want good R&D and I'd rather have someone else be the test pilot until the major kinks are worked out. Blues, Ian maybe I misunderstood what you meant then... now that I look at it again, I think that is what I did.. I think it was because of the "NOVA" statement. did you ever jump one? I am sure you have just heard stories, and you know how stories go. I read it as, you were saying that other companies, except for P.D., put there product out there and the jumpers do the testing. and P.D. products are already tested... I look at it again and I believe I read it wrong..
  8. that sucks dude, maybe if you had BOOBS you would have more... how are things treating you out there? I need to come out there and see ya for fucks sake!
  9. the FARM yo! actually, been chillin at the lake this summer.
  10. I was all over during all this, I was on a little motorcycle. the only "attitude" I saw was from the police. that was expected though. although I did sit there and talk to this cop when he got an attitude, I told him to chill out we are all friends here, then I took a sip of my beer and scooted off... nobody made me pour it out, and I was drinking it right in front of him while he was expessing his "athoritI"..
  11. here ya go. these are the FAI rules for this year. [url http://canopypiloting.tempwebpage.com/cgi-bin/gforum/gforum.cgi?post=6881;sb=post_latest_reply;so=ASC;forum_view=forum_view_collapsed;;page=unread#unread] RULES[url]
  12. that could be because it is over full of oil, or that for some reason the crankcase is being pressurized.
  13. take it as you will, looks like an observation to me.
  14. not true, I was there during a ramp check by the FAA, we were grounded for a few hours then we were able to jump after the paperwork was straightened out. not a big deal though, just a typical ramp check. I just wanted to point out, you don't really know of what your speaking of. p.s. rob an laura are VERY good friends of mine. speaking of throwing stones. you are in a glass house.
  15. nice job, I think I too am happy with the result.. keep up the work, because now the REAL work of educating jumpers carries on. I for one am not a very good teacher, so I will look to others who are and thank them. the education is spreading, I have seen it, It is just a long slow process.
  16. I had dinner with him last night, I got the impression he has not been on here in a LONG LONG time.. he is too busy.
  17. shouldn't you eat? I thought you had to take it WITH food.
  18. my point being, YOU are ALREADY making a difference on the education side, and I am 100% with that. I do not believe in any way this BSR will work WITHOUT it. but I am confident that the education WILL work without the BSR...
  19. I have the pleasure of seeing Ian's ACTIONS on a week by week basis, I see him MAKING a difference.. you go Ian!... Bill, I think you could learn a thing or two from Ian's approach. he already IS making a difference.
  20. good rule to have. do you think there should be another rule to state that this rule exists?
