    As has was said above the battery need not be in the system at all.In fact I alwas unhook mine when pluged into 120 V if not needing to charge the bttery. RV chargeing systems are good for cooking batterys (over charging). There might be a relay on your converter that has failed.I had one that some times on first plugging in to 120V would not operate the 12V system for a few sec.or min. and then kick in and the lights would come on.Yours may have failed --------if it has one .

    More lightly loaded mains have one more great advange. When they go to shit it's much more docile. The e -ticket ride is not always something every one can handel. Some are even much more exciting. You did, well done. BD Chuck

    I believe there is only 28 still on in that pic.A few fell off before everyone hand made it out side. I'm one of the for legs you can see hanging under the plane.I had one arm inside the front of the door and someone standing on it so I didn't slide out,the other arm is holding on to a girl that has no grip on the airplane. It was Larry Hills 3 in Coolidge. BD Chuck

    Packers are your first line of defence,they see the gear every time they pack and should understand how responsible they are . I ouned a tandem rig and made 450 tandem jumps.Stoped doing them do to neck problems and now pack them for others. Would never want to put any of my tandem guys or girls in un needed danger.

    You do not need a new toilet.Turn the water supply off.Remove all the water you can from the bowl and tank.Unbolt it and turn it on it's side .You will find your bottel stuck in the bottem or part way around the trap. It would not be a good idea to try to force the bottle on in to the the pipe below.Then you will have a bigger problem . Oh pick up a new wax ring to reseal the toilet back to the toilet flange.SeYa Chuck

If there is a better place to post this please let me know. Thanks Chuck PS yes looking at Trade- A-Plain also.

    Now that is FREE FLYING but the trip to and from adds a bit to it.Living on the Wright coast and in the flat lands we hang are heads and have to add petro to get in the air. Hope more skydivers see what paragliding is all about . And you do'nt have to pack.Think about it. B.S.B.D Chuck

    If you want air time think about Powered Para Giding.Have done 350 hrs, less than 3 years .No limit to were you can fly (sort of).If your near free flight sites do both ,if not it might be the way to get in the air. $5.00 an hr. for fuel about 3 to 5 hundred hrs on a motor cage at $5.000 to $6,000 and you can re build it . Can't give a link to a PPG site they all suck!!!!!!! B.S.B.D Chuck

    I'm sure you I were on the load out of the Boo that Larry Hill spotted .He did'nt trust anyone that knew how to spot and put us out on top of the AF jet!!!!!! I heard it before I saw it,oh and Tony Dell was pulling his legs straps tight on the way to the formatiom.I guess his rig lifting off his back about 6or8 inches in free fall got his attention!!!!!!! B.S.B.D. Chuckster Sure liked Elevators style

    A video http://www.paramotormag.com/news/153/ Powered paragliding is'nt big with skydivers it can be done on your oun and jumpers are pack animals ( like to stay with the pack). And running with 60 lbs. of 2-stroke and spinning prop leaves out most every one else! B.S.B.D.

    I made at least 40 launches with out a reserve before I had them going well enough to add more wt. No winders at 90 and high humidity are tough enough with out 3 gal. of gas and a reserve.If you can keep your hands,muffler springs.ear pluges,sun glasses,nuts and washers,pull starter handel ,speed bar,toggles etc. out of the PROP life is great. Fly fast. See Ya Chuck
