This sport is filled with people who offer unwanted advice. I think that that is the worst part of the whole experience. When I am confronted with somebody imparting their wisdom on me, I smile and say “thanks”.

They did it to themselves. 20,000 pilot on retirement x $7,000 a month makes them a target for low cost carriers. If it weren’t for the Government protecting them with Chapter 11 they would have been eliminated by the competition years ago.

I had my first malfunction and reserve ride this week end. All went well and nothing exciting to report. I followed my free-bag and main into a desolate farm pasture and had to walk a distance to the farm house so I could use the phone and call the DZ. This got me to thinking and I want to put it up for discussion. Does anybody out there jump with a cell phone on them? What would happen if you had no idea where you were, could 911 locate you via GPS or something? I don’t jump with my wallet so my biggest problem during this whole event was trying to contact the DZ when I had no business card or contacts list with me. Any suggestion?

I really wish drop zones would include their hours of operation on their web site. You got that DZO's !

Come on, get real. The broadcast networks have always created their own news stories. Dan Rather and the rest have been doing it their entire careers. That's what they get paid to do and everyone knows it. One really has to be concerned with the people who’s primary source of information is the TV. They’re the idiots.
