    Yup....and thank God the gear is lighter and the jumpsuits are tighter! Yea, but can they hold a grip on a hard core 10 way? Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    I fixed it for you. The behavior described is indicative of an inferiority complex. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    I see quite a few listed themselves as a save this year. Got me to thinking, my first save was myself. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    And how many tests do you think PD did before they put out that recommendation? Reliable results from testing involves much more than a few “table pulls” on the ground. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    Are they going to have a real pilot flying for them this time? Sparky http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=3665585#3665585 http://ntsb.gov/ntsb/brief2.asp?ev_id=20090601X30817&ntsbno=CEN09LA325&akey=1 My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    I hear they are coming out with something 'new' to make such situations safer...SNAPS on the legstraps! Seems you don't have to be a yoga instructor to get the parachute on & off when using them! +1 the proper tool for the job. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    rigging

    mjosparky replied to jraylitt's topic in Gear and Rigging

    You may not think you are a joke but your posts lead people think you are. As for answering questions, the problem there is most of your answers are wrong. There is some good information available on the site for those that want to learn. Your “I’m right and everyone else is wrong” attitude is getting in the way of you learning anything.

    Congratulations. If you feel like wearing it around the house go for it. This is my first rig. A 28’ C-9, 7TU and a 24’ flat reserve. Got the complete rig, a double zipper Pioneer jumpsuit that fit and a pair of French boots the right size. All for $125 cash money.

    Hell, I thought it was just me. I wouldn’t admit to it but a lot of what he said in the 70’s and 80’s made sense. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    These are the largest ring cutters I have seen. The large one is 1.25 inches and the smaller one is 0.75 inches. The other ones are called “cutter cartridge actuated” referred to as finger cutters... The red one is 0.8 sec and has a blunt cutter. The silver one is 0.5 sec and has a knife blade cutter. Works better cutting Kevlar or spectra. Sparky http://www.flickr.com/photos/53825637@N06/5311402706/ My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    What a wimp. A cutter large enough to cut Type VII would be fun to play with. I wonder if he could use a ring cutter? They don’t explode but one that large will take a finger off. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    There can be up to $25,000 worth of telemetry in the test vehicle and it the test item fails you want to be able to save the equipment. When the chest pack is closed the inside flaps are stitched 3 cord without the pilot chute. The outer flaps are closed over the pilot chute with 550 and a cutter activated on exit and it fires 1 to 5 sec. latter. This releases the pilot chute only. If the test item fails the pilot chute with catch air and 3 cord tacking and deploy the canopy. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals
