Should there be a new "incidents" forum?
airdvr replied to cocheese's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
I see the problem as alot of folks expect an official incident report in the incidents section. It rarely comes down that way. Innuendos and half-truths rule the day in there. Somebody knows something but doesn't want to say so they hint around at it. It's kind of like group therapy. If you're not at the meeting you're the one who gets talked about. That's not to say there isn't much to be learned by discussing things. But I've not expected a factual report in those threads for a long time. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne -

It is less expensive to stay outside the resort but the hassle factor increases alot. It's a PITA to shuttle in and out every day. Food anywhere around the park is a gouge. Disneyworld and thin budget don't mix. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne

That was a powerful add for a noob in 1981. It was the reason my first rig was a Racer. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne

Agreed. I failed to mention in the first post that the biggest reason for not running the engine to recharge batteries is fuel consumption. 60 miles down a 4wd only beach at aprox. 6mpg makes for a very fuel hungry trip. With an extra 5 gallons of fuel added for the return trip I get to the first gas station just as I pass 1/8th of a tank. Worse case scenario of somehow being stupid enough to drive back at high tide, in soft sand for all 60 miles leaves me getting off the beach practically farting in the gas tank in hopes of it being combustible. Needless to say, exploring options for safely carrying additional fuel in/on my Jeep are really the bigger priority. Your problem is the same many boat owners have who leave their rigs at the dock each week. We mostly solve that problem with a second battery and a switch that isolates the 2. http://www.iboats.com/Marine-Battery-Switches/dm/cart_id.640946690--session_id.417191141--view_id.216621 Please don't dent the planet.

Which says that at least 20% of jumpers do not have the confidence in their own ability to handle emergency situations during a jump. Maybe they should consider an activity with less chance of injury or death. Just a thought. Sparky The point I was working towards. We've created a whole class of participants that are device dependant. Add that to the actuality that an AAD will have no bearing on the outcome of 99% of malfunctions. That adds up to a whole bunch of people that would have never made it as far as they are without the security blanket of an AAD. I don't mean to pass judgement on those who jump an AAD except for those who won't jump without one. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne

So is it reasonable to say that roughly 20% of the skydiving population wouldn't make a jump without an operating AAD? Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
