It's an inside joke with Chuck, and it's not nearly as funny or as dirty as it sounds. But we all know that pretty much anything Chuck says after a few beers has potential. www.WingsuitPhotos.com

Your canopy has a retractable pilot? Where does he go? www.WingsuitPhotos.com

I like white girls with chicken. www.WingsuitPhotos.com

Chicken, please. www.WingsuitPhotos.com

Keep in mind that unless you can count every single person in the entire group, and have them all in your sight, there is always the chance that somebody is high and your circular path will bring you into a head-on collision. It can be safely done I guess, but I've never liked this idea in general. www.WingsuitPhotos.com

Do you mean flying circles around the group? www.WingsuitPhotos.com

Also, consider that Jeb flew a much riskier path (under the statue instead of over it) and didn't surprise himself by running into the bushes as he went over the edge of the mountain (as the hero in question did). www.WingsuitPhotos.com

What package? That page is nothing but hype, and a request for you to sign up for marketing information. I can't even figure out what they're talking about. www.WingsuitPhotos.com

If Luigi flew over the arm and barely cleared the bushes, how did Jeb manage to go under the arm and get to clean air? www.WingsuitPhotos.com

Delayed response... COOL! www.WingsuitPhotos.com

Good eye. Maybe he's breakdancing? www.WingsuitPhotos.com

Bush-scraping + ass-landing = well-done? www.WingsuitPhotos.com

I just use the Windows file browser, with thumbnails if I need them. And Irfanview for batch lossless rotating. www.WingsuitPhotos.com

The WS data I was quoting was from ZF3.0, I did not see any WS stuff on TD.com. www.WingsuitPhotos.com

From the Z-Flock 3.0 thread, Jeff's winning flight took him 3 ground miles in 176 seconds. That translates to 61mph avg forward speed. However, you can go much much faster forward if you also go much much faster downward (dive, for example, or gain 50 lb). But what's the point? We want to be birds, right? Birds soar, they are not bullets. As a sidenote, that trackingderby data you posted has a GR of ~1.5, which is the same GR of Jeff's run at 3.0. If the trackers did not have a tailwind, and the data from both jumps is accurate, then our wingsuits are not as glide-assisting as we think (once you factor in endurance). www.WingsuitPhotos.com

I would assume he means THIS, an excellent forum where I have learned TONS of stuff. I take my real photography questions there (no offense, DZ.com photo experts ). I did a google search earlier today in response to your original post and most of the discussions I found were on POTN. www.WingsuitPhotos.com

I never even thought of reformatting a CF card. Would also be interested to know if I'm missing out on something. EDIT: Google search has revealed one interesting fact. If you format your card (still no word on the necessity of this) you should do it with the camera menu system (not through your PC), to ensure compatibility with the camera. Also, if you have a full card, it will take a moderate amount of time to delete all the pics on either camera or PC... supposedly formatting card in camera has the effect of instantly deleting all pics. Timesaving. EDIT 2: Found a large argument on another forum over whether or not you should format your card frequently, or only when you get camera error. Everyone agrees to only format IN the device that it will be used with regularly. I'd say there's no reason to re-format until you get an error. www.WingsuitPhotos.com

I know Sam (980) added two small triangles to his S3 tailwing to make the trailing edge a straight line. At one point there was a pic in the classifieds somewhere. www.WingsuitPhotos.com

I would not buy this camera tomorrow either (if it was available that soon)... but I like the fact that it is coming out so fast. That means it will be clear sooner, whether or not this one is worth buying. Either way, it's a step in the right direction. www.WingsuitPhotos.com

Off-topic, but what film are you referring to? The closest I could find was this, which is neither WWI nor directed by Peter Jackson (it's WWII produced by PJ). www.WingsuitPhotos.com

Nice shot. Similar, but not quite the same. www.WingsuitPhotos.com
-
Also, any idea if it will still be possible to transfer cam-to-cam without a PC as an intermediary? www.WingsuitPhotos.com

Spot, I know you can answer this! If this AVCHD thing does pan out and work well for jumping, I already have a potential dilemma in my head. When editing a large project with footage from several contributors, will I be able to have HDV (or regular DV) and AVCHD in the same Vegas project? www.WingsuitPhotos.com

Hell yeah! Spot, where are you? www.WingsuitPhotos.com

Yeah, look at the econd pic! www.WingsuitPhotos.com
