  1. She served me well from March 24, 1990 to January 10, 2004! 1476 JUMPS plus a few by some rig borrowers. Russell M. Webb D 7014 Attorney at Law 713 385 5676 https://www.tdcparole.com
  2. Ah, someone else reads BIZARRE MAGAZINE! Seek Not the Awful TRUTH! Russell M. Webb D 7014 Attorney at Law 713 385 5676 https://www.tdcparole.com
  3. What? No reward for your first 8 man at your DZ? Russell M. Webb D 7014 Attorney at Law 713 385 5676 https://www.tdcparole.com
  4. Been around the entire 26 years I've been jumping. Russell M. Webb D 7014 Attorney at Law 713 385 5676 https://www.tdcparole.com
  5. That doesn't exactly look like a pilot chute "pouch" that it's coming out of. Russell M. Webb D 7014 Attorney at Law 713 385 5676 https://www.tdcparole.com
  6. Just curious, was it a SABRE??? Russell M. Webb D 7014 Attorney at Law 713 385 5676 https://www.tdcparole.com
  7. Did a search here and online. Nuttin. Anyone? Russell M. Webb D 7014 Attorney at Law 713 385 5676 https://www.tdcparole.com
  8. Two. It was a complete rig PC and 24 foot flat in a Cross Bow. I jumped it reconfigured conventional on jump 4. (static line) Oh, and it cost $200.00 complete. Russell M. Webb D 7014 Attorney at Law 713 385 5676 https://www.tdcparole.com
  9. Anyone? Edited to include the fact that The Flying Arab took this shot! Russell M. Webb D 7014 Attorney at Law 713 385 5676 https://www.tdcparole.com
  10. I give them some gum and tell them when to pull it out and geek the camera with it. Give's em something to think about and looks strange on video. Photo by Flying Arab Russell M. Webb D 7014 Attorney at Law 713 385 5676 https://www.tdcparole.com
  11. I try to get them to show they're cool by geeking video in the door. Give a thumbs up. Getting a three way chunk out the door allows for the facial expression to be there on exit. Check out this week's Flying Arab (Videos / Tandem).(May 15 week) I like to dive to the rear. Head down and 180 back up the hill. Course... I'm talking Otter exits. Nothing like a little freefall before drogue, hence, I don't like to jump into relative wind and deploy drogue right away. My latest "production" is to get the student to take out their gum, stretch it out and get rid of it on command. Make sure they have GUM!! (I'm doing the same thing too!) And you? Russell M.

  12. My Sigma with Sigma 395 main. (I'm a big un, and I can stand up meat missiles with it.) I jump the DZ's Sigmas and Sigma 370s and icarus also. Sometimes even the Vector with EZ 384. (When I really HAVE to) Russell M. Webb D 7014 Attorney at Law 713 385 5676 https://www.tdcparole.com
  13. With regard to "other," I've had students try to kill me by flaring too high or by not letting me go toggles UP to surge. Hence, I'm now leery about letting students handle landings ever, unless it's for training purpose. Big meat missiles on hot days get to help me stall surge land, but with MUCH practice. Russell M.

    Birthday.

    Mine. EXACTLY 26 years ago I was put out on a cheapo at dusk and ended up dangling from a power line across Highway 380 near Aero Country, Texas. No AAD. No RSL (Stevens). No radio. No signals. (No rated JM either) A month earlier myself and a co worker had gone to Commerce, Texas to ride in a Beech 18 to "fill slots" so Swain and others could do 4 ways. Sandra, the co worker, never jumped. Tomorrow she will. With me. Picture is we two "whuffos" at the DZ that day. Russell M. Webb D 7014 Attorney at Law 713 385 5676 https://www.tdcparole.com
  17. QuoteYep. It's always good bein the FIRST. Uh, but I was only yer SECOND. Russell M. Webb D 7014 Attorney at Law 713 385 5676 https://www.tdcparole.com
  18. Yep. It's always good bein the FIRST. I can see you now in ten. Lotsa jumps. Russell M. Webb D 7014 Attorney at Law 713 385 5676 https://www.tdcparole.com
  19. I'll do flips with "experienced" tandems. That is, those who have recently made a jump. (And request it) It's a learning experience about getting stable. I like sandals, but I recently started jumping in tennis shoes. Nothing like a snagged line to ruin your day. Russell M. Webb D 7014 Attorney at Law 713 385 5676 https://www.tdcparole.com

    666

    Yes, I made tandem jump # 666 on Saturday. Dana was the passenger. He's my packer. Kinda like validating his pack jobs. Russell M. Webb D 7014 Attorney at Law 713 385 5676 https://www.tdcparole.com
  22. Many of those plates were mine at one time. I collect em whenever I can. I have TX SKY DIV right now. Our state hasn't figured out how to re program their data base to include SEVEN digits. Russell M. Webb D 7014 Attorney at Law 713 385 5676 https://www.tdcparole.com
  23. I'll have to ask my passenger, because tandem number 666 will be next weekend. Russell M. Webb D 7014 Attorney at Law 713 385 5676 https://www.tdcparole.com
