And this is where newbie-ness rears its head. You need to do some more research. The price vs real freefall time is excellent. And it's a MUCH better training tool for RW and FF than freefall. Until you've actually used a Skyventure tunnel, you've no business knocking it. Sky, Muff Bro, Rodriguez Bro, and Bastion of Purity and Innocence!™

I have a huge noggin, and I hate having my peripheral vision cut off so I jump a Bonehead Mindwarp. I've had it for 5 years and it's still in amazing shape. Even after being lost at altitude twice. Sky, Muff Bro, Rodriguez Bro, and Bastion of Purity and Innocence!™

First off, it's The Ramones *kicking you in the nuts for desecrating the kings of Punk*. Secondly, wouldn't "I wanna be sedated" be a better choice? Then again, "Mr. E's Beautiful Blues" by The Eels would also be quite perfect, and certainly long enough. Sky, Muff Bro, Rodriguez Bro, and Bastion of Purity and Innocence!™

Cessna's are easy. I have flights out of both the C-182 and the C-205. The easiest way to do it is a poised exit. When you have your hands on the strut and are making your way out, keep your arms in a bit to keep the drag on your wings minimal for an easy climbout. Do the side-hop for the poised exit, and once you've cleared the plane, go ahead and spread your limbs into flight-mode. I always tell the pilot to keep flying his heading for 60 seconds then bring it down. I also discuss his descent pattern with him so I know where he plans to be. Depending on the kind of step you have, be careful. You really don't want to snag a bootie! When you get enough jumps to go for your training, all of this will be covered as well if you ask about that kind of plane. Your instructor will be able to go more in-depth with you as well.

washing container - cutaway cable’s hard housing
Kris replied to Lostinspace's topic in Gear and Rigging
Whoops, sorry, Chuck. Wasn't disputing anything you said, just adding an anecdote. As for how I pulled the cables, I did pull them in-line with the housings, not at a perpindicular angle, which is why it was so surprising. Sky, Muff Bro, Rodriguez Bro, and Bastion of Purity and Innocence!™ -
washing container - cutaway cable’s hard housing
Kris replied to Lostinspace's topic in Gear and Rigging
But it's still a good idea to clean those housing and cables, especially on a new rig. When I was chscking my wife's new Wings, that she had already put a couple of jumps on, I went to pull the cutaway cable as I was showing her how to properly maintain / clean them. Well, I pulled, and I pulled, and then I put the rig on the floor and I had to put one foot on the rig and then had to use both hands to get the cables to come out. A rub-down of the cables with some naptha and then some silicone lubricant after being run through the housings a few times finally had them coming out without any black residue on them. From what I've heard, it's leftover cutting oil that they use to make the housings. The cables were quite tacky when they came out that first time. Definitely something people need to check for on new rigs! Sky, Muff Bro, Rodriguez Bro, and Bastion of Purity and Innocence!™ -
