  2. Well I have heard more respectful comments from Troops about our current POTUS. But this video is just a spin, and an old one at that. Matt An Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!!
  3. Where is the "Commando" option? Matt An Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!!
  4. Good point I wonder why Obama has it played and Bush didnt? Just gonna guess that President Bush didn't play it a Troop Meet and Greet with Photo Op in Iraq, standard policy in my understanding for that type of event.. And President Obama played it a a Major Policy Announcement and Press Briefing, standard policy in my understanding for that type of event. It is really two different televised events, picked and spun by the video's producer. Is he gonna get the one of the Marines Saluting and "Not" Saluting outside of Marine 1 next?

  5. That's a pretty shitty post.....Hahahahaha!!! I kill myself. So no Rock bands but "Stand Up" instead? Matt An Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!!
  6. There are two commonly accepted methods of performing EP's. The one hand on each handle method and the two hands on one handle method. Two hands one handle method; Look at and grab soft cut away handle with two hands, LOOK at reserve handle, peel and pull cut away handle, grab and pull reserve handle. One hand one handle method; Look at Soft Handle grab with right hand, look at reserve handle grab with left hand, peel and pull with the right hand then the left hand. It appears she used the first method, maybe during the harness shift at her cut away she lost sight for a moment of the reserve handle. Matt An Instructors first concern is student safety.

  7. still haven't proven your point, now you just look silly Well, you know the price tag on the bill How many first responder ARE we talking about then? This article states it not JUST for First Responder's and has a total of 68,000 individuals who could make a claim in this bill. But it is Politics as usual, the near party line vote shows that.

  8. Uhmmm..... Ahhhhhh......Go look at the chart again.....we seem to have found on of the lower reading skilled folks.. I was nervous for a second, thought that I had misread the chart. Matt An Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!!
  9. FB status from PD is he will fly home soon. He will spend some time with Family in GA and then continue his rehab in Florida! Matt An Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!!
  10. That was Patriot 1. Matt An Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!!
  11. Well you have a dare devil to help you with it. (Walks away mumbling some thing about being a lucky SOB) Matt An Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!!
  12. Well to be fair I am not sure she had one on. Matt An Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!!
  13. This is just another Mirage ad! Look at the rigs! Matt An Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!!
  14. Fred, is that you? Matt An Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!!
  15. I Disagree, a Canopy is a tool (in this case) to get a pair of individuals, safely to the ground. A 330 may be good for one wing loading and a 400 good for another. A T-I should be picking the right tool for the job and adjusting to every individual students needs. Matt An Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!!
  16. Did we get Rick Rolled? Matt An Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!!
  17. There was a lengthy thread on this a while back. The Camera guy was trying, but he should have remained clear and allowed the T-I to do what he was taught, two attempts at clearing and then fire the reserve. The T-I should have done a better job of the exit first and foremost. Every fatality in the UPT Incident Reports could have been prevented buy the T-I doing the Proper Procedures. Yes, this was a different rig, but still; Start Right to Fly Right. If I get tangled I would ask the Video Flyer to acknowledge it, then back up and film my opening. If I am at fault it, will exonerate the DZ. If I am not at fault, I can learn from it as well as others. I have told many a Video Flyer if some thing goes wrong stay a safe distance away and let me handle it. I do not want to be responsible for your life too (any more than I am already).

  18. More like the sick call 6 month hold over. Matt An Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!!
  19. Still lacking substance, proving my point of your pathetic desire for attention. Other than the, "it's like a car wreck, you just have to look" value of your posts, they are pointless. How many of your blithering diatribe posts and threads are no longer? The PM's I have received have been right, I fell for it, ya got me, hook line a sinker. I will take the advice of a respected veteran or these forums and our sport: "Ignore him like you do your ex-wife, eventually they all go find another poor bastard annoy". Matt An Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!!
  20. Where have I backed away? Where was there an actual attempt at real criticism? I was open an upfront in all my replies. Your replies still smack of childish bull shit, like most of your skydiving and base skills and knowledge posts posts. If it makes you fell better and included to post to every single fucking forum, then IMO it is sad. And since most of your info is either incorrect or old and outdated already discussed trash, it borders on pathetic. So lets delete or lock this already and actually discuss some thing of substance, since this thread is just another pathetic "look at me" call for attention.

  21. May he RIP. Matt An Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!!
  22. Dude, you must really be starved for attention as you seem to stick your nose in every forum and every thread and say some dumb ass shit. The thread is dumb, it is about an asshat and about a old year old story. No one is giving him a pass, most all here agree he is an Entertainer who lacks morals and makes up or spins all his "News", it has been hashed out. Your OP is stupid, lacks debatable topic and just a childish attempt at "Inclusion". My reply was spot on. You made a poor example, and when called on it, You pulled the typical child's behavior of "I know you are but what am I?" But all of your posts and threads are in that same vain. Matt An Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!!
  23. Not even an intelligent attempt at a good example. Matt An Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!!
  24. Who are they? and what do they have to do with Paris Hilton that POS? Matt An Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!!
  25. His point is the jpg you posted is just spin, like the "Death Panel" crap. Post some thing of value and its value can be debated. Post some thing lacking in value and the poster gets "berated". Matt An Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!!
