What size is your container? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!

Okay! The winner: HUKA551 The explaination: I was in a time crunch, and that is when my mind goes blank. I posted on dz.com for Excel Help. Within moments I had my answer! I had promised a jump ticket to the first one to help with the right answer. Remster was the man! But when I tried to hook him up he told me to give it to someone deserving. Hence this thread. Now Remster hates me for making people say nice things about him. But I think Jenni will be happy when she turns up at the DZ this weekend. Have fun Jenni, and thanks again Remster! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!

I'm thinking Huka so far. I'll give it a couple more minutes... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!

Let's just say that yours would cost more than someone off student status. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!

Oooh. I'ld go broke if you won! Next! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!

Keep them coming. I need more to work with here!!! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!

....for a good cause. => When was the last time you ate Top Ramen or Mac 'n Cheese for dinner? => What strange things have you done to earn a jump ticket? => Is your rig more expensive than your car? => Can you come up with something really nice to say about Remster? Yes. You may win a prize for the correct answers. Answer honestly. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!

You need to take a four day weekend in Eloy or Perris. I bet you can get in 5 jumps a day, meet some new people and learn some new tricks! What part of Iowa are you in? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!

A lot of times when drop zones put on a boogie, they require a license. There are more people in the air, different types of skydives happening, etc. So in many cases it's not a good environment for students to be jumping in. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!

I buy and sell a lot of used gear. There are some opportunists out there, but the good news is... ....this is a small sport. Everyone knows someone who knows the guy/girl selling or buying the gear. It's easy to check up on. I usually ask for the buyer/seller's home DZ and their rigger. Then I call the rigger who last packed the rig or I call the DZO or S & TA to ask about a buyers qualifications. I get to make new friends in the process or say hello to an old one. AND I have qualified my buyer or seller enough to make a comfortable transaction. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!

Ohhhh. Yes. I have sex with her all the time! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!

No, but I'm sleeping with his rig tonight! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!

www.FliteSuit.com is right up the street from you at Skydance in Davis. Of course, if you don't want to drive that far, you can stop at Byron to get measured. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!

There are several choices available. The best bet is to find goggles that fit your face well and can be outfitted with perscription lenses. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!

This set up would be quite inexpensive. The container is 17 years old and not good for freeflying. The resale on the Firelite is not very high. 42 jumps on a canopy that is 10 years old also makes me wonder. What was the asking price for this rig? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies!

Rosa, please consider putting a connector between your leg straps in the mean time! Even if you just tie a pull-up cord holding your leg straps together. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!

I've never seen one come through < 14". And with 14" there is barely room for handles. In fact most are fitted with a smaller D-ring. This is a good question. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!

Done! I had everything right except one thing! I was copying the spreadsheet to another FILE instead of worksheet, and it didn't want to play! So Remster you had the same idea as I did. You just knew how to do it right. Now. Who can help me decide who to send the jump ticket to? So many contributors. This site rocks! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!

That just copies the formula for that cell into the others or copies the value into the cells I'm dragging in to. I am trying to take a spreadsheet with lots of prices and reduce the value of each cell by 75%. A jump ticket to the first person who comes up with a solution! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!
-
I have a worksheet full of prices. I would like to apply the same formula (Cost / 4) to all prices on the spreadsheet. Thus reducing the value in all cells by 3/4. Is there a way to do this all at once, or do I have to do it cell by cell? And no, this does NOT indicate the mark up for skydiving gear!!!! I wish. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies!

Jeth, What is your wing loading on the F111 PD? A lightly loaded F111 is easy to land. Once you exceed the 1:1, it become more challenging. You can learn how to fly it properly in just a few jump. Just make sure you are not overloading it. Otherwise you landings may not be comfortable. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!

I love my Pilot too! I don't usually bag him, but I always jump him. Is bagging fun? What is it? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!

Safe to jump like this or not? (picture attached)
GravityGirl replied to peek's topic in Safety and Training
I say "unsafe". It is too hard to do a gear check at a glance. So you are eliminating a safety step regarless of wether or not it holds. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear! -
Very cool! Go Lisa go!!!! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!
