What about an altimeter that gives you an electric shock. 3500 ft an BZZZZZZZZZZ, 40 volt shock. You wouldn't ignore that one. You are discussing alternate locations for your vibrating altimeter, all these places would work for the "shocking" one too. I would certainly erspond quickly if my altimeter zapped my b****. .

I'm with Billvon on this one. But Then again, I'm an european, and I guess you all know what we are thinking about attaccing Iraq. BI ----------------------------------------

I also vote at every election. But after the last election for parlament I have loft a lot of faith in our "democracy". The party that I voted for have after the election turned around in almost every issue that is important to me. They do not keep their promises to make cars cheaper, they do not keep their promises to make kindergarden for my kids cheaper, education is getting more expensive, gasoline isn't getting any cheaper. Norway has got more oil resources than the rest of Europe added together, and still a gallon of gasoline cost something more than $4.5. I live in one of the richest countries on the globe, but we can't seem to afford having a police force large enough to make our streets safe. Crime is rising in Norway. Do you know what the maximum sentence for first degree murder is in Norway? Two years ago two litle girls, 9 and 10 years of age, were sodomized and brutally slayed by two guys. They were sentenced to 17 and 21 years in jail, where 21 year is the maximum in Norway. They'll probably get released in 10-15 years time. Do you see that happen in The US or UK? No way. Our politicians doesn't do anything about this. It seem like my vote does not count at all. Don't know if i bother to vote at the next election. I vote for me as world dictator. Free skydiving (and beer) to everyone. BI for president. BI ----------------------------------------

We had a crash between a seagull and a c-185 at jumprun at 4000' a few years ago.. It scared the h*** out of us. Bird everywere, impossible to see anything through the windshield, so the pilot had to land the airplane wearing googles sticking his head halfway out the open left side window. Incidents with birds are not uncommon at this airport, but birds as high up as 4000' is something wi don't like too much. BI ----------------------------------------

Didn't think of that. Neat. BI ----------------------------------------

HH is having some fun.

And the soberbrothers would then be??? The dark side? BI ----------------------------------------

How ironic. Just sent an e-mail to someone with an e-mail adress ending with @soberbrothers.com Are they related in any way with the rodriguez brothers? BI ----------------------------------------

You are probably right. I'll bring a case, no, lets say two cases the next time i'm going to the states. BI ----------------------------------------

I wouldn't know. I'm probably the only skydiver in the world that doesn't like beer. BI ----------------------------------------

OK, lets kick ass. BI ----------------------------------------

Babies are cool.

The boulder city airport, on which SLV is located, has an elevation of 2201'. Source Looks like a scam to me BI ----------------------------------------

2174 ft? See this. BI ----------------------------------------

Nope, it doesn't. BI ----------------------------------------

"Extra big engines and propellar", thats funny. Is this somekind of a scam? (Am I allowed to say that, or are they going to sue me bigtime now?) BI ----------------------------------------

Actually this took place 10+ years ago, but I'll se if I'm able to dig up som pictures. (What about a freefalling symphony orchestra. That would be cool. Violins flying everywhere, kettledrums at 100 MPH+, oboes, trumpets, not to forget the harp at terminal velocity. What a sight it would be. Noisy too.) BI ----------------------------------------

Read this Skydive LasVegas. Do also read the part about using Cypress., 3/4 down the page. BI ----------------------------------------

Does throwing a Grand Piano out of an air plane and play on it it in freefall count as "skydiving musicians" ? If it does, then I know of a few skydiving musicians. BI ----------------------------------------

That is possible the coolest thing I have ever seen. Want one. BI ----------------------------------------

Me to. BI ----------------------------------------

Your wish is my law, master. BI ----------------------------------------

But don't kill it or Carrie will kill you! Don't listen to him. Kill it, kill it, kill it. A shotgun would work just fine. Tell the police/landlord/insurance people that you thought it was an alien invasion or whatever. BI ----------------------------------------

120:0. One really close call. BI ----------------------------------------
