  1. at the risk of being labeled 'slowest uptake of the year...' When's this happening?
  2. Clicky Edit: I'm guessing by the laughing in the background that they're not supposed to do that as a standard test...
  3. then he's probably not shouting at you!

    I really expected this thread to take a different course... Am I the only one who's mind is in a perpetual gutter? lol Don't worry... yoiu can't help it... it's not your fault. You're French.
  6. I don't get it... OK, they were working for the second DZ but still fun jumping at the first? How is that a problem?? It sounds like whoever asked the jumper to choose has taken a big gamble... At least they were getting some sort of custom. Now they might not get any and get a bad rep into the bargain. oops.

  16. Straight after getting qualified I was converting to throw-away. 4 Of us got in the plane to make a llift but the weather caught us - The experienced guys left at 2500... I rode it down. It was a good decision. New things and low altitude didn't appeal.
  17. good one... as part of this confessional: after a long spot, I was so focused on making the landing area that I didn't realise I was flying down the length of the runway from 1500ft down... Luckily the pilot saw me don't do this - pilots and CCIs get quite angry.
