You might also take a look at South Carolina as there may be a DZ there closer than Georgia. Try finding a Savanna zip code and plug it into the locator, then call to make sure the DZs it finds are operating. Owned by Remi #?

The first time I read the OP I saw ...some airforce guys had taken a candy ham and videoed their high speed low level flight. I guess I should go eat breakfast. Owned by Remi #?

It wasn't intended to be a serious comment, no. But.... I don't see where the rules specify intent to land or where they require a third parachute if you don't intend to land the main. I know it's a good idea to have a thrid but is this spelled out somewhere other than the part that addresses the use of single harness dual parachute system? Owned by Remi #?

What part of this situation with four wounded civilians, one dead police officer, and one dead suspect be considered ending well? Owned by Remi #?

That FAR is weird, IMO. I could chose to jump with one square inch of nylon as my main as long as I've packed it within 120 days? Owned by Remi #?

Jeffrey, The fact that you admitted you were wrong about the victims not trying to take this guy out doesn't do jack shit to ameloriate the fact that you "attacked" the victims of this brutal act in your original post. You've expressed your opinion that if "victims" had been armed, attacks like these might be avoided in several posts about other crimes. This is the only one in which you chose to call the victims pussies for not fighting back. I think that's the point, huh? What motivated you to attack these victims and not the others in the posts you've been active in? Yeah..edit to add your original remarks. You're sure your post was about the attacker and not the victims? Owned by Remi #?

In the thread (quoted above) about the postal worker who killed 7 people with a gun earlier in the week, you didn't bitch at all about the 40 other people in the post office and you didn't ask why none of them had disarmed her, did you? You argued that if they had been armed too, it may have been prevented, didn't you? This reeks of hypocrisy and bullshit Owned by Remi #?

A few years ago I came home from a late night out and one of my neighbors ran up to me in my driveway as though something horrible had happened. She said The cops were in your house!!!!!!! "Your alarm went off and then some cops came and climbed into your window and they WENT INTO YOUR HOUSE!!!!" She seemed angry... and expected me to be angry too. I was just confused. I went in and found nothing amis in my house. There was a note on my breakfast bar that said something like "Your premise alarm went off and we got called over because no one answered your phone. We entered your house through the open front window because we felt it necessary to check for your safety. Please contact if you have any questions. PS You should make sure your windows have good, solid locks. And use them. Your cats loved chasing our flashlights. I called and asked for the officer, explaining to the dispatcher what had happened and that he had left a note. She said that he was busy but she would pass a message along. I told her that I had called to thank him for looking after my house. There was a long pause...... she said "You called to thank him?" Hold a minute. I'll get him. I guess people don't call to say thanks very often. Owned by Remi #?
