>Flock, do you really know what used to stand for?
killler replied to TETI's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
Bird-man, Loic, Matter did not invent the modern day wingsuits that are safe for the average 500 jump experienced jumper. But we credit them with promoting them and regard them as the inventors. They did not "Invent" Winged flight, Or the idear of winged flight.... They worked on fixing the problems with winged flight.... They used the lessons learned from the parachute and used it to make winged flight safer then ever before... We don't call Bill Coe the "inventor" of the ram air parachute.... He has done more then any other person to improve the ram air parachute... IMO.. We just LOL at people that are so full of themselves and call thing that people have been doing for years "NEW"... Free style is freak flying with a few different moves.... Base jumping is a "new" way to jump.... RW was a "new" way to jump.... CReW was a "new" way to jump.... When we did CReW with PC's and Crossbows it was still "CReW" So just say you have a few moves that are cool and fun to play with..... Killer..... -
The 1st Amendment gives me the "RIGHT" to say or write anything.... Even if 99.99% of the people in this country thinks it gross or not nice.... The courts have only put a hold on things like yelling "FIRE" in a building when there is none, And child porn.... Thats the greatest right we have in this country... To be able to express your views freely.... Thats is why the civil right people marched and it why the KKK is allowed to march..... Freedom of Speech.... Killer.....

And this is from the guy who was going to give it up. It made me smile to read your post...

This is the link to the TSA website for getting a rig on the airplane without a hassle..... It's got a printable version.... http://www.tsa.gov/public/interapp/editorial/editorial_1147.xml Hope this is a help.... It's nice to have their "RULES" in hand... Killer..... How do you make it clicky

I've done this a few times for people And it worked very well.... You both pick a rigger to sent the chutes to... He inspects them and then ships the canopies to the new owners... You throw him a few bucks plus shipping.... It will cost some money, But it will be on the up and up... Killer...

Go look in Skys Call..... 18 pages from the back of the book... You will see a picture of the "Atmonauti" skydiver.... He's got all the modern gear.. The picture shows the jumper flying feet first in a near 45* angle with his arm out for a "dock" on the upper jumper who is flying in a head down 45* to get the pin... There are other "FLOCKER" also in the 45*(Atmonauti) looking to dock and flock.... Looking at the gear.... The picture is from the late 60's or at the early 70's ..... Killer............ -
They have a few ranges in the city, The only thing is you need to have a NYC pistol permit.... When I worked in NYC as a PI with a carry I would go to a place in the Bronx's call Fin and Feather gun club to shoot.... they have a few others.... New York is NOT a shooter friendly place.... Killer....

The pats are on thier way out..... Will lose to the jets next...... Killer.....

Don't rule out the Jets...... They just may but it together... Killer....

Flying aeroplanes versus jumping from them...
killler replied to LearningTOfly's topic in The Bonfire
This is a poem from Skys Call.... If I could retrieve the fortune I have spent... Worrying where it came from, Not caring where it went.... I could live the heady lifestyle of Playboy magazine.... I would see the worldly sights, That still remain unseen.... It must amount to thousands I've squandered on this sport.... The mark of any jumper, A balance close to nought.... But if I had it back in one financial lump..... I'd go south in the winter and jump and jump and jump..... Killer.... -
Flying aeroplanes versus jumping from them...
killler replied to LearningTOfly's topic in The Bonfire
I never wanted to fly.... I took up flying to be a spare pilot when the real pilots were not around... I owned the plane & dropzone so it was a "NEED" to learn to fly.... I never got anything out of flying cross-country and normal flying.... But... Flying a c-182 at max load+ out of a 1600ft grass strip is "FUN".... Taking-off of a 265' driveway when the runway was muddy was "FUN"... Landing in the night on the little grass strip was "FUN"... I think I understand the guy who said flying was.." Hours of boredom with seconds of sheer terror".... Killer.... -
Thanks pop.... I haven't seen you in years... I talk with paul jr, once or twice a yr.... Glad to hear you still have a foot in the door.... What ever happened to the beaver???? I loved that plane..... Killer.....

Thats how Bill Coe talks... He's talked like that for all 25yrs I've known him.... A great guy and the reason we have the HP chutes today.... Killer.....

One must look at the time the 2nd amendment was written to understand what they were saying.... At that time, People were aware that the only way to have a free state was to have people armed against the powers of a government gone amok... Thats why the separation of powers in the government.... To help stop the government from removing the freedoms they gave to us in the bill of rights.... A free and fair government does not fear a armed state... But a corrupt government should fear the people.... Killer.....

When I ran My DZ some jumpers would not jump here because I put Safety over Money..... Students are the hardest to deal with... I found that everyone needs to be on the same page.... Nothing worst then experienced jumpers arguing about the safety of jumping in front of students.... Killer.....

I used to jump at lakewood 79'& 80' then went to the ranch.... I remeber jumping the Islander(sp) and you old timers should remeber the 1956 C-182 N5659b that was flying jumpers back in the 60's there.... Was owned by the navy parachute team at one time.... I owned 5659b till last year, She is still flying jumpers at skydive statesboro,ga.... I think its the oldest flying jump plane (C-182) around... Has over 5000hrs of hualing jumpers.... Anyone have a story to tell about it? I know it was the plane that the main gear fell off with jumpers standing on it on jumprun.... Love to hear about it? Killer......

Zero in 1600+ jumps and over 2500 pack jobs on student rigs and reserves with out a malfunction on those rigs........ 27saves It's all about the packing IMO.... Killer......

A 155wp round with a time fuse for airburst is great for troops at 500m.... Crispy critters I think it's funny how far off a thread can go on this site.... Killer.......

What do you think about this? Malpractice or not?
killler replied to rhino's topic in Speakers Corner
I think you got him..... What a a$$hole he is.... To tell the judge that he is putting false statements on the record and then the judge says "OK" Ilove this kind of stuff.... Just shows how crooked they are.... Not all... Just most.... Good luck with the kids...I know you really love'm.. Killer.... -
Ron..... I think you have told us to much already.... The only one needing to see the door and how it's built and locked is someone looking to get in that should not be there.... A pilot with a pistol and training is a great last line of defense.... Killer.....
-
I think pilots should be armed , "IF" they can use it like a air marshel can.... Letting every tom dick and harry carry pistols is not the answer..... I think many old fighter jocks would be great at it.... killer....

Hitting a person is not like shooting at a range... Ever see the video on "cops" with the white suv and the two cops firing at less then 15ft away and not even hitting the suv or the bad guys.... 23 rounds fired and they hit nothing... Thats the norm, A cop in my town fired 13rds at point blank range (3feet) and missed every shot, The bad guy hit the cop with two out of three rds fired from a stub-nose 38.... Killer....

A armed air marshel in the back of a aircraft unknown to others has the better chance of taking out a highjacker then the pilot.... He has the upper hand..... The pilot is better off behind a locked door and in control of the aircraft.... The training needed is to keep the door locked at all cost.... I think a pilot should be able to carry if he can shoot without missing.... Killer....
-
Not a troll.... Just pointing out the facts.... We don't need pilots firing in aircraft without being able to hit the person.... Killer....
