Yea, one of the few, FGF #??? I miss the sky... There are 10 types of people in the world... those who understand binary and those who don't.

Otay rocks, mabey seeya there FGF #??? I miss the sky... There are 10 types of people in the world... those who understand binary and those who don't.

Congrats FGF #??? I miss the sky... There are 10 types of people in the world... those who understand binary and those who don't.

I've had a few of those "climbing passes" in a Twin Otter before, not a big deal, ... But seems kinda risky in a Caravan with the tail as low as it is... I know that I was told never to "jump" out of the door on the caravan even at normal jump run speeds because a strike is possible. I for one would tend to think that slowing down may be worth the trouble in a plane like that, not only for the safety of the jumper but the safety of the aircraft in question wouldnt it? FGF #???

Mabey work doesnt want you on those sites and has used something to cripple them. ? FGF #??? I miss the sky... There are 10 types of people in the world... those who understand binary and those who don't.

On my spinning malfunction, I reached for the one and only handle on the right side, ... I would hate to have two handles there personally. My rigs got enough handles to pull Edited to correct to say right side vs. left FGF #??? I miss the sky...

Sounds fine if your jumping solo, but since I like having groups in freefall (including night jumps) you'd just blind everyone And as a general note, I've used the neptune on all my night jumps, works great, no glow sticks or charging the Alti glow face to deal with And, night jumps kick ass.. .. Also never covered the night sticks, nobody in the plane did on my jumps, dont think it really bothered me much.. the exit light that they still decided to use was much brigter than any night stick anyway (in the Pac 750) FGF #???

75 jumps is when everyone starts flying camera now, where have you been? sheesh.... FGF #??? I miss the sky... There are 10 types of people in the world... those who understand binary and those who don't.

I stopped drinking... It's sad, but true. (sad that I would party and drink enough, that to quit would allow me to be able to afford this sport, quite happy that I dont go out anymore actually.) Ofcourse, that now means that I dont have a life if I dont skydive I remember what I did before skydiving, and dont really wanna go back to it. FGF #??? I miss the sky...

Thats awsome... I want one! FGF #??? I miss the sky... There are 10 types of people in the world... those who understand binary and those who don't.

Where you get that shirt??? FGF #??? I miss the sky... There are 10 types of people in the world... those who understand binary and those who don't.

Your going to want to use Firewire vs. USB for starters And I would get my hands on Adobe Premier or Pinnacle Studio, or some other movie editing software to pull it from the camera. FGF #???

I'm also gonna side with the "I feel safer under my higher loaded canopy" team.... When I was below 1:1 for my first 100 jumps there were things that I feel were less safe then what I jump now, .. One of them being how the canopy handles in turbulance, a higher loaded canopy is more stable, nuff said about that. The second being how long it takes to get down. With my lightly loaded canopy it drove me nuts when I was doing my landing pattern so much slower than everyone else, the rule is low person has right of way, well for me the low person changed all the time during my pattern due to the fact that everyone else came in so much faster than I did, this screwed me up way to many times making me adjust my landing for all the people who have suddenly ended up in front of me, even on final. I know you always gotta be prepared to change your plan, but when someone that you dont see bacause they were above / behind you is suddenly in front of you going to the spot that you had decided to land, it can get a bit frustrating. Minor, yes, .. Issues less important than being at a safely landable wing loading for your skill, yes... But good reasons in my limited experience to downsize to a "normal" wing loading. FGF #???

I use http://www.aplus.net/ Very cheap linux or windows hosting, lots available features (SQL, Merchant Services, etc) ... They have been very good to me.. I spend $10 per month for a 2 gigs of space, email, shell account, SQL, scripting, everything.. FGF #??? I miss the sky...

hmm, thought it was higher, must have been a different plane that I saw the over 2 gal. per jumper 1 gal aint shit FGF #??? I miss the sky... There are 10 types of people in the world... those who understand binary and those who don't.

heh, looked into what it takes to get a jumper to altitude in the twin otter once... forget the exact numbers, but I do remember it being quite shocking the amount of fuel, per jumper, per jump... Ohhhh well I like the quote at the bottom of the Pea Pit website "Skydiving: Wasting Fossil Fuels, Just For Fun" FGF #??? I miss the sky...

You ever read one of those posts that just hits you up side the head like a bag of bricks, makes sense, makes you question alot of shit, really makes you think? Your post just did that to me...

first time i've called it Basicly, got a guy that is posting something opposite of what people wanna hear (in and of itself, does not make a troll), but is ignoring the reasons that people have a problem with skyride (does not address them at all).. He's just looking for reaction, .. Troll. FGF #??? I miss the sky... There are 10 types of people in the world... those who understand binary and those who don't.
