Sure looks purty, but till you show me a pic of a 427 bored out to 433 under the hood for starters, she could be just another 6 cyclinder with a cool-ass paint job. Need some specs, ma' man. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

It's not Wiki... but not that Wiki's a great source to cite either. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

The article on the home page has been shortened a bit from the original case study. The original case study was done during a time and the sources cited were from an era of learning more about how our genetic and chemical make-up affect personality. During the late 70's to the mid-80's, (which was actually kind of a pinnacle of studies originating in the 50's) there was a complete shift in our understanding of Psychology and Psychiatry. Within 15 years, we went from treating those with "mental illness" using shock therapy to giving people the ability to function in society through chemistry and science. We learned that having a mental illness is no different genetically than having diabetes and in some cases - is now "treatable." Great strides are made every day in the field of genetics. One could hypothesize from my comments so far that skydiving = mental illness. Here's a clip from the original case study that leads up to the conclusion to address your question/statement....

Read it again, John. It wasn't about revealing dishonesty, it was about flogging that horse a 288th time. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

Please let's not go down this path of negativity regarding SLV again. It's been done at least 287 times already and reflects more on you than it does on their marketing program. Let it go. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

Understood. Brain lock has resulted in more than one "oh shit" skydiving moment. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

It's going to take awhile. Ya know, I've kinda stepped away from the Instructor role a bit this year due to work commitments, but teach on occasion when in town. I was out at the DZ yesterday and saw at least three novice skydivers do a butt sldie instead of runnning it out or taking the PLF. One of them could have taken a couple of running steps and been done with it. I'm not sure when or why butt-slides became the alternate landing method of choice, but I just cringe evvery time I see someone lifting their feet in the air to land. Don't know your specific situation as to why your tailbone was bruised or broken, but if a landing is the case, perhaps you could be a walking testimonial as to "why" butt slides are not a good choice.

Congratulations! Now, go out and surround yourself with the finest group of E-7s & E-8s you can find, give them a mission, turn them loose and stay outta their way! Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

From my persepctive, you answered the question. Tell them the skydiver didn't initiate the proper procedures to save their own life. If we extend your point out one level from, "I've seen adults have an awful time handling skydiving fatalities;" wouldn't that beg the question if children should be on the DZ at all?

I was in the plane last summer when Cathy made her "first" skydiver load as a pilot. If you should speak with her, please tell her I hope she's OK. Yes, the Fire Department is literally a hundred yards away from her hangar and just off the field. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

I've been thinking about this since Tom's thread and I can kinda see the S/L working on an Otter. I guess it's no different than a poised exit off the 182, just on a different side. I do know that I'd have someone experienced show me before I did one myself. I do have one question - is it necessary to duct tape the door frame or just run your hands down it to ensure there's no nicks?

Why would one do IAD -S/L out of a PAC, King Air or Otter? IMO, the instructional methodology should fit the A/C. Personally, I would fit the IAD - S/L method to C-182's, but think it would be an easy and safer sell for AFF or AFP for PACs, King Airs or Otters.

Since the thread title is "Camera People," wonder how many people knew Mike Sisemore in Oklahoma who used to jump one of the ABC Wide World of Sports cameras on his helmet (circa late 70's - early 80's)... Mike had to finally give up skydiving around 1983 as the camera had blown his neck and knees out. About every two years, Mike has an "Old Skydivers" reunion at his place on the lake that we jump into Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

At the gym, there is a pull down bar attached to a cable which is attached to weights that one can pull down from over your head to your waist. About 30 lbs, ten reps, three times a week oughta get it. If a gym is outta the question - there's a tree, a rafter, or sumpin around your house you can do pullups on (hands facing out); about 6 reps three times a week oughta get it.

Going to add: Prior to pulling the pullup cord out of the closing loop; route it under the closing pin to place any friction on the closing pin rather than the closing loop. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
