    There is no better D.Z. within 6 hours driving from Lexington than Greene County Skydiving Center in Xenia. I don't care how many skydives you've got, until you stepped into complete darkness at 800' wearing 95 lbs of equipment and 42 lbs of parachute, son you are still a leg!

    Went through jump school 1967.

    It was not a"SPOT" at all. It was improper radar identification by Cleveland Center. There was no such thing as GPS, no transponder on the aircraft and you can't spot on top of a complete overcast. The pilot requested his position from ATC and he was told he was over Ortner Field! They exited. Wrong airplane, the rest is history sorry to say. Ironically I had just met 10 of them the week before in Wooster Ohio doing competition water jumps in a "Hit and Swim" meet. I remember that meet too. You myself and Jack Tiffany went in Jack's Vet. The meet was into a quarry surrounded by boulders etc. people were bashing themselves up jumping rags etc. As I recall I won the meet and you George came second. I was jumping a 7TU. Makes me shake my head just to think about it.

    There is no winner in a situation like this. If you were test driving a used car and it blew a rod or had other mechanical problems, would all of you people who thinks Chris should buy the canopy, feel obliged to still buy the car?

    Wrong Way profile says he jumps at Greene County. I would hardly class Greene County as a small drop zone.Quote I don't care how many skydives you've got, until you stepped into complete darkness at 800' wearing 95 lbs of equipment and 42 lbs of parachute, son you are still a leg!
