Thanks Rick. If you are done with it I would like to borrow it. LOL, if I can stay focused on it long enough to Read it ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ earthbound misfit

LOL I couldn't relax then either BIG babies and Lots of SWEARING.. that breathing stuff didn't work Thanks Lisa. I have a hard time focusing.. tuning out the things around me.. on the plane. The few times that I have actually managed to do that, things went much better. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ earthbound misfit

Thanks.Rosa. I know this all too well. People are impressed now when I tell them Im a private pilot with 260 + hours.. They don't care how long it took me to get that certificate. It is all just gaining experience.

guess you got the most important part ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ earthbound misfit

It is MY money to spend. I CHOSE to do this. I WILL succeed. It took me $12,000 (YOUR READ THAT RIGHT) 28 months and over 154 hours to get my private pilot license. The national average is between 5-7K and 60-70 hours It was not lack of trying on my instructors part by any means It was all ME... I don't care HOW much this costs me. It is something I really want to do. and I WILL get it. Just like flying the plane. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ earthbound misfit

Troubles... I can't relax. I don't know how. Skydiving is so mental and all about relaxation. I am a very hyper, high strung person. I need to learn to calm down and let things happen. Thanks ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ earthbound misfit

Oh, I WILL stick with it. Im getting it... Slowly. cindee, i hope it won't take you a couple of years. you stick with it too!!! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ earthbound misfit

Maybe so with some DZ's but not mine. My self confidence (lack of it) is holding me back. My DZ is right to hold me back. I totally lost my altitude awareness on my first attempt at level 7. I would have been upset with them if that HAD passed me after that. They have been nothing but supportive, helpful and patient through all of this. I am the only reason I have not graduated AFF yet. I will. I don't quit. I didn't ask this question to bring any negativity against my DZ or any of my fellow jumpers. I couldn't ask for better support. I was just curious. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ earthbound misfit

Rosa, if I had the time to get away from work I would. Just not an option. Believe me, I KNOW it would help me... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ earthbound misfit

Do yourself a favor, don't ever ask me to buy you a lottery ticket.

It will. Just hang in there. Maybe you need to wear knee pads, elbow pads and a helmet I would tell you to Be careful, but I know you are doing the best you can. Just wish, somehow, things would be easier for you...... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ earthbound misfit -

Determination is Half the battle, Chris. You are not a quitter. You WILL recover. The doctor's told you so. Now you are just being tested... your patience, your faith. A test you will pass. Just like you will eventually get back to AFF and pass that too!!! Keep the faith. Rely on your friends, here, to help you do it
