Morning Michael.. I've always been curious as to riggers who have skydiver's just come in throw down their rigs with the "See ya Friday" thing and that's it. You are right that it is a business. Riggers should not only have a check-box of what is to be performed and check/initial those boxes upon completion for the skydiver; but should also have a "Terms & Conditions" clause at the bottom or back of the Work Order requiring a skydiver's signature. 1. In this instance, storage fees if > than X days. 2. Statutory limits - Thirty days is the average, some local laws may allow more time. Nonetheless, ownership of abandoned personal property transfers to the owner of the storage facility after that date. They can then dispose of the property as they see fit - sell, auction, etc. 3. Concurrently; do riggers maintain additional liability insurance if their place of business has a fire, flooding, etc. Cause you know the guy that left it there for six months when he was supposed to pick it up the following week... will be the biggest pisser when the loft catches fire and his rig that should have been long gone is now in ashes.

Vintage Marcinko. I think its why I only read about 1/2 his first book. But its not that unlike a friend of mine who's books I read and call him up and say, "Chuck, what the hell were you talking about here... that's not how it happened." He'll say it's what sells books and it does say fiction on the binder. 'nuff said. We used to give him shit about "You never let the truth stand between you and a good story." and he would respond by saying, "You mean a great story."

Hey, Matt. Never met the man, but you can sure tell in his books. Partly justified... partly an old warrior without a war. Keith Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

Have said second Rigger point out to you their inspection process and explain "why" s/he thinks it was done right. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

Knew a lot of guys that went thru HALO and it sounded like they got about as much altitude as normal skydiving operations. But, with Team's like Marcinko's, it wouldn't surprise me if they mission-specific trained many times. As to Marcinko's impression of himself... seems like all those guys were surrounded in some sort of controversy. Hackworth was run out for being outspoken, challenging an Admiral on his fruit salad only to find out he (without intent) was really not Ranger tabbed.. Audie Murphy died with tons in gambling debt that his widow tried paying off while working at the VA... etc. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

I really haven't heard of anyone getting that high at Yuma or Marana. What I have heard is they train "as though" they were going to do it. But, I'm the wrong person to be discussing this. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

I didn't get to attend HALO school after three years of trying due to lack of funding and I wasn't on a HALO team. I think it would be best to defer to Scott or Chuck on the following, "We learned that back in the Arizona desert, where we jumped out of 727s and C-141s from as high as thirty-five thousand feet" Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

First, the woman displayed a lack of judgment that went well beyond using cruise control in the rain. For example, she used disposable diapers on her baby, which is not very environmentally conscious. Second, the story in circulation has been "cleaned up" a bit for public dissemination. Ms. Abbey was actually ironing her entire outfit at the time of the incident and had removed her bra with the intention of breast feeding her child after she changed it, thus she was actually wearing nothing but the helmet and panties when she was found. And finally, the woman received multiple traffic tickets after the incident, including ones for speeding, unsafe driving, child endangerment, littering, breaking various fire-marshal regulations, illegal parking, damaging public property (the cliff), indecency, and operating an aircraft without a pilot's license. Total Fines: 2 Million dollars. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

Oh Dear Lord Jerry, That's shit about the 50's. We'd have to be 60-80 years old to know the answers to those. On the flip side of the coin, I had no idea who Amy Winehosue was till she passed and have still yet to see a Lady Gaga video. BUT!!! I can sing every Barry White song ever performed and know who sung the "Greatest Love of All" and who wrote it and why before it became associated with Whitney Houston 20+ years later. I'll take "Knows music shit from the 70's to 90's" for 100, Alex. Keith Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

When I think of guys like Marcinko, Bo Gritz, Colonel Hackworth (RIP) and others like them; I'm reminded of an old movie line from "Heartbreak Ridge." "They need to put guys like him in a glass case with a sign that says, "Break Glass in case of War." Go look up Hackworth on Wikipedia or sumpin.... he had sumpin like 7 or 9 Silver Stars AND 7 or 9 Bronze Stars all with V devices AND, AND, AND... I _think_ to date, he is still the most decorated soldier in our history (not highest, but most). Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

Clue: Luciano Angelotti Perhaps he/they misspelled "Incursori." An SOF Unit of the Italian Navy similar to our SEALS back in the day. I "think" the unit was started around 1980 and the chutes "could" have been large silk rounds (just thinkin... Italian military supplies in those days?).

We have a very good search function [ear + pressure]that will provide you with a lot of information: http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?do=search_results&search_forum=all&search_type=AND&search_string=ear+pressure You might want to speak to a good Ear, Nose & Throat doctor also...

Absolutely. Nightjumps are/were my favorite jumps to make from any A/C. Please enjoy the event. maintain good separation and be safe. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

Like I already mentioned above... The point of this thread is 100% to find out how many people have made night helicopter jumps... I guess your vote is NO, considering that you didn't bother voting. Does the link bother you? If the poll was 100% dedicated to find out how many people have made night helicopter jumps then why conclude it with advertising an event? My answer is, "Yes."
