  1. That's a good trick, given it wasn't on in 2005 . Current plans have me at 'Nox in 06. We'll see how it goes.
  2. And since he hates getting in airplanes, BASE should be right up his street...
  3. The Airlock issue is related to dark colours - apparently it's too difficult to simultaneously sew both airlocks to the ribs if the ribs are too dark. And yes, there are restrictions on rib colours - I couldn't get Navy ribs on the Samurai I've got on order.
  4. However, later in the thread he says that he isn't going to downsize... the initial comments from people appear to have changed his mind. He was still debating going to a Cobalt of the same size as the Springo. All the sarcastic posts later in the thread did was make the guy angry. Counterproductive.
  5. Check with Eloy, but you may well need your own sleeping bag in the bunkhouse.
  6. 1900 here. Just kicking into the first of three bottles of beer. A lazy evening awaits.
  7. Any pics of that? I don't quite get what you mean.
  8. Our old Otter: VH-OTA One of the 750XLs owned by our DZO: VH-XLS
  9. AUD 29/32/37 for 100/10/1 tickets, respectively. If you're going to be in town over the Christmas boogie, register by Dec 1 for $25 jumps & free beer from Dec 26 to Jan 2
  10. Get the T-shirt now! http://topatoco.com/snakes.htm
  11. You missed out on the "and read up" advice . If you bought the videos more than 18 months ago, then they can't call you. (Reference). So, go file a complaint.
  12. The "I can't talk about anything but skydiving" phase seems to last 50-100 jumps. It's definitely possible to keep wuffo friends - you just need to ensure you don't bore them with skydiving talk. It also helps if they prefer meeting up on weeknights, 'coz on weekends you'll often be at the DZ. Welcome
  13. Email them and ask. In my experience they're prompt and helpful when answering queries.
  14. The Federal Do Not Call registry. Use google to read up on it & register.
  15. Google is your friend:
  16. How long was your vertical decent speed above 78mph?
  17. What's a PJ? And no, I don't want to hear "something you wear in bed" .
  18. For the record, the Australian Op Regs codifies some minimums: You can gain a C licence at 100 jumps. Our DZ has additional requirements: 200 jump minimum At least 100 jumps in the last year CI (~= DZO) sign-off TM sign-off for every jump edit: I should be able to spell codifies correctly the first time.

  20. You are aware that Ticketmaster own Ticketweb, right?
