    I'll second that (Flex Zs). I've been wearing them for 10 years. Just make sure they're secure, so they don't flip up in freefall. Bungee cord tension varies. Might need to replace it with something like is used for a freebag safety stow, for improved snugness. I don't tape the vent holes. Have had only one problem with contacts, where one came out and stuck to the inside of the goggle, which I later lost in the grass... :o\

    Anyone know the details behind this? MOTION: Motion was made by Mike Truffer and 2nd by George Galloway that PIA distribute the “letter” by Mark Schlatter to those who attended Robert Feldmen’s presentation at the 2007 PIA Symposium. Discussion then ensued. Following discussion a vote was called. Dan Poynter requested voting by secret ballot. Motion failed with a vote of 18 “No” and 4 “Yes”.

    Oops, sorry about that. I'd been meaning to post this since I found out about it a year ago. I had an epiphany last night. Guess I should have done some due-diligence first and searched to see if it had already be posted. I wanna be a moderator, if I grow up... ;o)

    Seen the ad in "Skydiving" for the new FAA Parachute Rigger Handbook for $85? Don't pay it. It's available to download for free at: http://www.faa.gov/library/manuals/aircraft/media/FAA-H-8083-17.pdf It's around 45MB. Enjoy! chris

    I jumped in WY with the wonderful help of Black Hills Air Sports in SD. They flew me over to New Castle, WY, as I recall. Yeah, for NH I landed way down past the end of the Pepperell runway and called it good. Nice walk back. Where do people jump in MD? I e-mailed the place in Ocean City, but they said they only do tandems. Guess they had problems in the past with fun jumpers. It's a shame we ruined it for ourselves. I e-mailed Parachutes are Fun (Ridgely) the other day to see about jumping there. Heading out east over Memorial Day weekend to hopefully knock out NJ, DE, MD and CT. chris

    Looking for places to jump around the Santiago, Chile area. Will be there in early July. How's the weather that time of year?
