    What's this then ? (hint : only bailout qualified for use on a P-3) It is called the Thin Pack or Dura Pack. It comes in 3 versions, the basic aircrew like the picture, a version for the P-3 and a third for the E2-C. They also tried a civilian version. http://i397.photobucket.com/albums/pp55/mjosparky/Testing/LiveTest2.jpg Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    I would say this is a lost cause….people are going to try and justify their actions regardless if they know what they are talking about. The bottom line is when in a track you should be looking where you are going not where you have been…..that is where the danger is. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    This will get someone killed and for sure will get you axed from a big way. (100 way or larger) Break offs are staged in waves to give you both vertical and horizontal separation. This method has been proven with loads up to 400. When you get your key to break, you turn to a heading of 180 degrees from the center of the formation and flat track to your assigned pull altitude. If you are on the outside wave of a really big formation you may start break off as high as 7,500 feet. You will have to hold your track down to 2,500 or maybe even 2,000 feet. The next wave will start their track 3 to 4 seconds later. If they are able to track over the top of you I would say you lack the sills to be on the load.

    If you stage the canopies right it works like a charm. This rocket is 16 ft. and 450 pounds. http://s397.photobucket.com/albums/pp55/mjosparky/?action=view¤t=Jayhawk_2nd_Flight_Ground_Video.mp4 Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    Do you know you can demo reserves now-a-days? yeah, in fact sometimes the manufactures come to your DZ and set up a tent an everything. You can try your reserve before you buy it, pretty cool. Yea I know that but if you notice he didn't say he demoed anydthing. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    Seems like quite a few reserve rides for 300 jumps. If you felt that was a PA you need to toughen up cupcake. From your choice of canopies all I can say is good luck. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    How many jumps do you have on any kind of reserve? I would say you are just parroting what you have heard and don’t shit about which reserve canopies fly better or land better. If you are going to make claims have something to back it up. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    Exactly my thought when I watched this 70s classic for the 1st time a few days ago... what's up with the crazy sound effect? Is that a 70's thing? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CtG9TCH2tfQ Google Carl Boenish. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    I always remember with special fondness the metallic 'clink rattle rattle clink' of my rings & ropes when the PC was at full extension and the canopy was about to catch air...Use to love that sound, meant the scary free-fall stuff was over and the fun canopy stuff was starting! With ropes & rings it was the start of a whole new adventure. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals
