  4. Hi Pam, this post's gonna get fun..... eheheh seriously, are you sure the PC9 can do proper still pictures? I'm sure it can do some basic quality ones, but i thought only the PC 100 and 110 have MegaPixel capacity for decent printable stills... you may want to check your documentation and take action if taking good stills is something important to you..... PS: as far as what jumping you should do with 60 some jumps and a camera: I'm no camera flyier myself so wont comment.. I'm sure others will.... PPS: absolute safest mount is with a spectator on the ground! lol Remi Muff 914
  5. its a tough job to keep running from the law... And Skreamsy: I may be a bum, but at least I dont smell like one... And Hughbetcha: only the old timers who were my instructors (Daniel, Michel, Gilles and maybe a few others) will remember me there! Its been 4 or 5 years since I've been around Nouvel Air... Remi Muff 914
  6. With what happened this week, check with the airline 1st as theie policies will have no doubt changed.. good luck getting a hold of them.... and good luck ever being allowed a rig as hand luggage.... Remi Muff 914
  7. Salut Martin j'vais t'prendre une 50 flat tablette STP!!! I'm at Langar UK now, but I used to call Nouvel Air (PQ), then Blues Skies (edmonton) then Markam (Toronto) my home... Remi Muff 914
  8. sorry to break the news to you Dutchy, but ANFO is damm easy to make... and getting mixtures wrong by a significant amount wont render the stuff useless... in fact having less FO the optimal makes it more sensitive..... PS: may sound like I'm talking BS (especially after calling PVC carbonate (that was silly of me!), but I use to work for a commercial explosives company as a tech rep) Remi Muff 914
  9. far enough to make it fun! on the lauchm, you REALY have to but some energy in twisting your bodies to get them in the air properly... a few funnels will be had... Remi Muff 914
  10. Its a "bit" accrobatic.. eheheh and its been a while for me (about 4 years ago) so take whats below with a grainof salt... get the pilot to put the brake on the front wheels far hang goes out and needs to get his right foot on the wheel, hanging on right arm, I used to wrap my arm and hang from the elbow (yes, its gonna make the launch tough cuz he's back will be a bit in the relatve wind) cant remember if the V or "close hang" goes next, but in any event, they go out... as I remember, the close hang gets his left foot on the wheel too (but I aint too sure now), the guys in the V .. I think has his left leg dangling and his right propped on the edge of the door the divers, well, in the plane and dives! its sketchy... sorry.... Remi Muff 914
  11. Welcome.. BEER! But remember: it aint beacause it has a turbine that it makes it a "real DZ".... i think the Nevada DZ we all love to hate has a turbine, and I'm pretty sure too that most of us would rather jump from a 182 at another DZ then there... PS: lauching a 4way from a 182 is fun.. and even more from a 180 with no step!!! Remi Muff 914
  12. I think it has been well established that both Merick and the clerk already have physically met Pammi.... Remi Muff 914
  13. [chuckles.....] sorry.. couldnt resist... I hate to continue the legent Of "Canada, the Frozen Wasteland", but -4C .... lol... thats dont even qualify as a winter jump.... Remi Muff 914
  14. Bill: you're showing your age! lol Remi Muff 914
  15. Yes Clay, lets kill level the middle-east.... you cant be sure of gettinmg rid of terrorism without that.... then, les get rid of all asians to make sure none of the dooms day cult is left behind the europeans: there's those neo-nazis running around London and other big/small cities, cant have those... (lets not forget the IRA and ETA) Sorry to say, but we really should get rid of the Blacks in America just in case some Black Panthers are still active Those white extremists in the States sealed the fate of the rest of the North American population I'd say... Shinning Path and other groups in South America, lets nuke the whole continent.. Sorry to use sarcasm at a time like this guys, but this aint the world I want to live in.... Yes somethings needs to be done, but reading words like "genocide" makes my skin crawl in a BIG way.... Remi Muff 914
  16. for most of us who have never seen a war, it really shows the importance of this word: peace.... and i dont think we'll be seing alot of it for a while... Remi Muff 914

    goodby

    Agreed! You said something that was not meant as in insult, some people took it as an insult... life is full of misunderstandings... I think you're a big enough man to go past that, and I hope the people that were offended are too... Remi Muff 914
  18. Congrats Daddy! Karen and I really arent made for kids.. we took our 1st steps to parenthood 2 weeks ago: we planted 4 plants outside... 3 days later, 2 were dead.... We'll leave the parenthood thing to you guys... Remi Muff 914

  21. Bummer... but sounds like its not a "quitting" as much as it is a "pause".. so c ya in the air soon! Remi Muff 914
  22. and before anyone jumps on the national bandwagon: I've seen the sheep obsession in ALL the dz's I've jumped, and I've never been in NZ... PS: has someone seen my wellies? Remi Muff 914
  23. STEP AWAY FROM THE BAGGY JUMPSUIT!!!! (j/k guys.. dont flame me too much... besides, my RW suit is baggier then most Freefly ones I see) My personnal view is that you should have decent RW skills first. Why? Because I said so... but also because 1- RW skills learning is well established and it is easier to find processes(skydive U, other type of proven coaching) then it is for FF (it exist there too, but in a lesser scale) 2- there are more people to learn from RW then FF from, hence it should be easier to find good coaching 3- the basic skills you lear on RW are the same as on FF: proximity, levels, controled approaches, no momentum docks, anticipation, visiualisation, seperation... but with RW you have lesser speed, less 3D issues, so the learning curve is less steep (or I should rather say the learning curve is split in phases) Remi Muff 914
  24. easy women/men? cheap beer? free skydives? Sheep tied to a post? Remi Muff 914
