    I am not sure what criteria USPA will use to judge and certify this “record” wing suit dive. But FAI on bigways and such require that all participants survive for 24 hours after the record. Some thing you might want to look into. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    Dave just gave you some very good advice. The only way to “pound out another 100 jumps” or any number of jumps is to stay alive. The number one criteria for a long jump career. Sparky Attached are the Dutch rules. And they are mandatory. My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    I am way too old to get offended by something on the net. But I am tired of bagging and tagging hot shot young jumpers who get all puffed up about their crazy skills and haven’t seen the ball since kick off. I’ll make you a deal, in 5 years if you are still alive, still in the sport and not waking with a limp, I will get down on my knees and apologize for hurting you sensitivities. My name is Michael Owens; you pick the time and place. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    You better grow some tougher hide or you will get eaten alive in this sport. Remember you are the one looking help and answers. If you don’t like the package it comes nod, say hummm and move on. Most jumpers have better things to do with their time than cater to your needs. Just a little advice, take it or leave it. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    I am not sure what you are trying to prove with the scan of your log book. One thing it does show is that you have made 39 jumps in 5 months. That is not enough jumps to be current on any canopy much less a 150. It is so hard to believe because most of the people talking to you have been there and done that. They know what it takes to understand the flight characteristics of different canopies. And they also know that you lack the hang time to know WTF you are talking about. Can I be on you ash dive.

    If you know something the rest of us don't out with it. If not STFU. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    And there is the problem. You don’t even know what it is you don’t know. You are regurgitating all this crap you have heard other people say with no real understanding of what it means. Attached is some light reading for and an indication of where you are headed. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    It WAS in business 44 years ago, when I made my first jump there. Bill, you have to get out more often. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    And you my friend are in so far over your head……..Maybe at you level of experience you should think about not handing out advice. Sparkky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    Jerry, You have dealt with the FAA on TSO matters in the past maybe you would know. If the larger Optima reserves were submitted for certification under TSO-C23e during that small window is it possible that the Feds. put a hold on it until something can be determined on TSO-C23e? Then if it was submitted under the new TSO they won’t accept it under the old TSO. Just something I thought of. My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    From your other posts I wouldn’t think you would need a ride. You could just fly that South African go fast 155 canopy to the DZ. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    If you "hit" the ground you are not doing it right. Can you come up with one good reason to wear a watch instead of an altimeter build for the job? Sparky You made me They are obvious some reason against and some for. I'm just saying that its an option that cannot should be excluded. I fixed it for you.

    That makes it dangerous; you had better give to me. I will see that it finds a safe home. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    I don't know how they work and no where on the net could I find instructions. If you say the copy you have sucks it must mean they don’t want anyone to understand how they work. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    Just my opinion but there is only one reason to buy a watch and use it as altimeter. That would be the cool factor. If you want a watch buy a watch, if you want an altimeter buy an altimeter. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    You should take a break and come in from the fog you live in. Hippies went out of style probably before you were born. There is a difference between being laid back and being stupid. Which side of the line do you walk? One thing you are right about, this sport is dangerous and people that cut corners and repeatedly break “the rules” make it even more so. In case your light is too dim to notice most of those rules are written in blood. But what the hell you are a one post wonder without a name, just making noise so you enjoy and be safe.
