Yeah, it seems I have missed the high speed impact. Thanks.
-
Have I missed something? I can`t see the connection.

Unix is NOT open source. Unix is a trademark owned by SCO with other right around the original source codes.
-
Whichone are you talking about? OSX is based on FreeBSD and Mach kernel.... Thats not thier scratch, I think.
-
So you know how to do a braked turn. Well done! You can advance to the flat turns now. :)
-
Check this: http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/safety/detail_page.cgi?ID=47 It seems he does not know how things are called. He has described braked turns....
-
Its the easiest way to aim.

I`ve got my bulletcam delivered. I`d like to mount it to my Z1. What position do you recommend to mount it? If I mount it to the center, under my chin it exceeds 5 cms, or should I take the side? The plan is using a metalic frame and epoxi or liquid plastic + glass fiber.

Progressive flare? I had plenty of jumps on F111 canopies. Flaring those was just pull toggles down until the stall point.....
-
I`m somewhere WL 1.3..1.4.
-
I have ~70jumps only in my canopy. I`ve checked and untwisted my brakes, but still....
-
Over what WL can I expect harness turns? I`ve noticed some little, but niticeable left turns of my gear recently. Can it be a reason?

I`d like to have this: http://www.stackltd.com/dvrharsh.html

Wow! Sounds like a paratrooper. They love it, because they have not tried anything else.
-
One of my friend has told me that he has the talon on the list of most hated for reserve repacking. Its just about taste.
-
You may get better ones. There are bullet cams with 480 and 520 TV lines too.
-
Thanks. How about the drawbacks? I know all suit is a kind of compromise comfort,easy handling vs. performance.
-
Does it have a custom 3 ring system? It wouldn`t be practical if you want to demo a canopy....and thats coming with the risers.
-
I don`t think that a perfectly good canopy should have a locked toggle.
-
Im sorry. I`m not a birman, just a wannabe. I have to have more freefall, before I can take the course. Is that good? I`m just playing with the idea to pick my first suite. Gti and PF Prodigy are my candidates. Prodigy looks more simple.
-
Would you compare their beginner suit with Gti, please?
-
What device do you use for recording?
-
You know they give a stand-by signal on 300m. Several units give that signal in some seconds interval.
-
Yes. It has happened with me too. HAve you noticed that pro-tracks are giving the turn-on sign with some seconds on the same load? Not at once but in 6 sec? Have you noticed that Pro Track won`t log your jump if you have less than 5 sec freefall? Why dont you set the 1st or 1st 2 alarm a bit lower? If I jump from 1000m I set alarm to 925m. Pilots fly about +-50m accurate or sometimes a bit higher :).

Pilot Emergency Parachute with Ram-Air Canopy
phoenixlpr replied to peek's topic in Gear and Rigging
I`m not sure but It may happen that those bail out rigs having a different TSO category than skydiving rigs. I`ve seen max 400km/h limit on our pilot`s bail out rig.
