Thanks, looks good, and its pretty close. What kind of aircraft do they have? On the website they show cessna and a porter; while one the dz.com database they have a caravan. _________________________________________ "If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat?"

Going to be there for a few weeks, and looking for a nearby dz. Any help would be appreciated. It's near Pensacola. Dan _________________________________________ "If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat?"

Has anyone gotten to the bottom of this yet? I have only put about 8 jumps on my brand new Wings, and I absolutely love it. But I have noticed the same problem so far with the FF handle. I know there is some sort of stiffener in the handle, and it seems like the cordura being so tight around it makes it kind of slippery. Maybe if it were just folded cordura it would have more friction. Probably just enough to hold it a little more securely. Just my thoughts. _________________________________________ "If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat?"

I was facing the same dilemma. As I understand it, from my rigger and various website info, it's really more of a liability issue. Of course one will work with the other, but PD tested their Slinks with PD canopies. And Aerodyne tested their soft links with Aerodyne canopies; though they also cover their use with Tempo's. If its just soft links that you want, get them from Aerodyne; if its PD Slinks you want, you may continue to deal with this issue. _________________________________________ "If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat?"

Well I finally got to jump it; and I am impressed! Its like sitting on my couch under canopy, very comfy. And of course I christened it on my first jump with a small grass stain on the leg pad. Oh well, I'll take it! _________________________________________ "If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat?"

Just review what you've learned so far, and look over the next section in the SIM. That's all you can do. _________________________________________ "If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat?"

Yeah, I've checked it out already. I'm just wondering if they'll be open this weekend or later. You can PM me if you'd prefer. _________________________________________ "If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat?"

I appologize in advance, as I'm sure this has come up before. But can anyone help out a computer illiterate like myself shrink photos to post. Mine are around 700kb, and I guess they need to be 120kb or less. How do I go about shirinking them? _________________________________________ "If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat?"

Got mine a couple weeks ago. The very next day, I had to leave town. I'm back now, and getting assembled tonight. WOOOHOOO! I'll post pics ASAP. _________________________________________ "If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat?"

I hear ya man. Last weekend at a local dz the winds were quite light if any and the sock was barely moving all morning. Since there were nearly no winds, we were following the first guy down. On my third jump of the day, I was near the middle of the pack after opening. I watched the first landing, and it seemed a little wobbly from my viewpoint, and the second took a sideways gust after touch down and tumbled a little, the third went almost sideways just above the ground but managed to collect only a few grass stains. I was catching glimpses of all this while steering through an already crowded sky following the pattern of those before me. As I turned on my base, I noticed a couple others eating shit on landing as well. And I knew that I was by far the most inexperienced on the load, other than one student. Apparently the winds had picked up and were moving. I finally got a look at the tiny wind sock rotating as I was on final. I was at this time, now heading downwind running over the entire LZ, luckily its a long one. I decided I wasn't going to attempt a correction because of my position and everyone else's. I just barely missed the runway taxi turn around at the end of the LZ, I mean by inches, and the came to a painless sliding stop just before a steel drainage grate, again by inches. And when I got up and looked back, people were heading my way in the same predicament. The highest jumper in the air apparently noticed what was going on and changed her pattern and had the best landing of the load, and she was the student. I suppose this doesn't answer any questions, but it does serve as another example of landing pattern problems. _________________________________________ "If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat?"

Luckly I remember a lot of it. But as for talking in my sleep, I don't even have to get out of bed to do that! A few years ago when I was in school, I used to rattle off mechanical engineering math formulas in my sleep, it probably helped me learn though. We were just dating then and I must have seemed like such a friggin geek. _________________________________________ "If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat?"

I think most of the time, I come to and realize what I'm doing and feel stupid then just pass out agian. But I don't normally remember until she reminds me in the morning when it comes back. But sometimes I have no recollection of anything, like the windex incident. But I don't think I need to tie myself to the bed just yet. _________________________________________ "If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat?"

By the way, nice rig dude...I'm waiting on my Wings...should be next week. _________________________________________ "If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat?"

Ya know, the shaving in the middle of the night isn't so bad; I get a little extra time in the morning then. _________________________________________ "If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat?"

One time I was standing on the bed trying to get the picture down off the wall over the headboard because I thought it was about to fall...but I guess at the time it wasn't a picture, to me it was a big trophy of some sort. Another time I was trying to pick up my wife's leg and put it in the crib because I thought it was the baby. One time I was spraying windex around the room, for what I have no idea. And countless times I have awaken in the bathroom shaving at 2 am. But I guess I'm at least in a pleasant mood during this. And no, I don't drink a lot. _________________________________________ "If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat?"

You wouldn't believe the things I apparently do in my sleep. Every other morning my wife tells me I did something ridiculous during the night. Nothing filthy or raunchy, just weird. _________________________________________ "If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat?"

Thanks, but I wasn't going that deep; meant to be a little more light-hearted than that. I haven't jumped since she was born a month ago, and I think that when I do, I'll feel bad or something and turn around before I get to the DZ. _________________________________________ "If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat?"
