  3. At a 182 DZ that had brought in a Caravan for a boogie. Four way team climbs in the door and is dirt diving the exit while the engine is running. DZO comes over and hollers above the engine noise; "That dirt dive is costing ten bucks a minute, who's account do I charge it to?!?!?" Talk about an instant attention-getting device - Cracked me up... Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
  4. Now that is awesome! Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
  5. 1. You done good. 2. NEVER be more afraid of landing in the plane and embarassed, than couragous and dead. It's skydiving; not combat. 3. Landing with the plane is an example to younger skydivers that it's OK to land with the plane for the sake of safety.

  9. Suggest: RWS, LLC Just the initials, so you don't lose the branding. IBM used to be... EDS used to be... AT&T used to be... ABC used to be... CBS used to be... CNN used to be... All of whom acquired other organizations or developed additional product/service offerings under the "initials" parent company. If the name changes, the ripple effect of new/existing contracts, new waivers, re-registration as government vendor, new logo TM filings, re-filing of D&B for government contracts, loss of time as an entity related to government contracts, etc. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
  10. Wear Contacts. Owned two pairs of Radiators. Lost both - but not while skydiving (set one pair down somewhere over the rainbow, the other set in the ocean (forgot and dove in - but that's how comfortable they are)). Personal model preferences; 1) Radiators, 2) Converters. Having said that; I seem to be expensive shade challenged. I can buy a cheap pair of $10.00 shades and have them all year, but the second I buy a pair over a hundred bucks - poof! Gone within a week.

  11. Now, this is a very important and worthwhile piece of information. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

  15. There's been a symphony of threads on this request: http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?do=search_results&search_forum=forum_18&search_type=AND&search_string=health+insurance Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
  16. You and Jim beat me to it. Had dinner with Alan the other night in Tallahassee. Think it'll work out in some capacity for my organization; we'll see if we can keep him busy enough till he can point a finger at a specific area of interest. Thanks for pointing him to me.

  18. I'm trying to think..... I'm not sure if there's anyone who's trained more civilian skydivers using the S/L method than him. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
  19. Welcome back, Max. You're an inspiration to many. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
  20. Why is water/night training mandatory for a USPA license, but downwind landing training is not? Why is it we don't give as much attention to PLF training as we do EP's? We'll use PLF's a lot more than we will EP's. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
  21. I'm not near as afraid of skydiving as I am of Bull Riding. You ever seen what happens to them guys outta the gate? That's some scary shit. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
  22. Now that I think about it... that's true. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
  23. Most of them are former Special Forces, Ranger, Force Recon, Snipers, etc. Why they exist is a long story of which one may or may not agree; but they are a necessary entity. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
  24. Since we both have different opinions on which one has the bottom end flare or more glide... I wonder if loading plays a factor on performance. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
  25. What Bill said. I own both a Safire2 169 and a Pilot 168. Both have similar flying characteristics, while both have dissimilar openings. The Safire2 opens softer (longer) but will usually not be on heading, whereas the Pilot opens faster, more symmetrical and consistently on heading. The Pilot has a better stall point, but I get a little more swoop out of my Safire. I like both canopies equally, but for different reasons. I'm loading them at 1.6 Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
