A quick tip to cut the process in half for you: Put the name of the State/town/city you're going - in the search function (i.e., Dallas). It will pull up the list of DZ's closest to that town/city. Select one and then scroll down to the Google map function at the bottom of the same page and use the zoom function to see if it's close.

You're taking a break from skydiving for a wife and two kids?!?!??! While I'm sure the decision was hard; I'm also sure it was relatively easy. Get up around Tulsa, give me a ping. See you on here until then. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

Does anyone remember the next point? Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

Yeah...like THAT will ever happen! It always cracks me up when flying for the female captain to board or come out of the _cockpit_ and the ever present elderly lady will say something like, "We have a woman flying the plane?!?!?!?" Or, "Did you see that?!?!?! We have a woman Captain!!!!" I just can't help myself. You know that. I know that. So, my response has been along the lines of, "Oh dear God, we should probably get off before they close the doors." "Yeah, that's my wife... you should see what a bad driver she is." or some other smart ass comment of the day. It's like watching the elderly female bug verbally devour the younger female ones. What they complained about and wanted for generations, now friggin astounds them. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

Interestingly enough, I Googled Hot Engineering girls and guess what popped up first and guess who was the OP? You'll never guess... Go ahead, Guess.

Everyone should get a medal for attendance and participation, so no one feels slighted. I agree with Bill, though... it's his money. Let him have at it. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

I sorry? Matt No. I was apologizing to you for using a post of yours "as a quote" and was going to PM you the link to this thread so you were aware that it was used and got diverted from sending you the PM.

Maybe you could tell me? I appreciate the time and effort spent providing this information. Evidently, something has changed since I signed my contracts with a couple of the manufacturers and stand corrected. From the search function: http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=3494248#3494248 I guess I'm left with no more than an "opinion" that if one feels the necessity to wear a brain bucket on their behalf; they should be inclined to do as much; if not more for the student. And, we know of one such student that "might" have had a better outcome if more than just a frap hat. http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=1639462#1639462 Scroll down for the finality of the situation. In closing, I guess it's just one person's opinion. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

Most TI's I know don't put a helmet on tandem students, the only ones I have ever seen actually put them on is at the tandem course, they put people in frap hats. OK. I'm not sure of the point here. It's required. According to? The contracts I signed with the Manufacturers,.. which falls under the FAR's. Are there no more contracts with the manufacturers or are we just not reviewing them after being signed? Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

It's a rather silly debate. Most of the taxes would come from their earned income and not the medals themselves. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
