  5. I have family in South America and the tankless is the most common type used in their area. They are much more efficient to operate, but have a higher initial cost. They are nice because they are smaller and don't require annual maintenance. The faster you draw water through a tankless heater, the less time the water has to be warmed. So tanks are measured in degrees of temperature rise per gallons per minute used. It sounds like you have an electric water heater. In order to get the temperature rise with an electric heater, more heating elements are used than a tank type. This requires a larger breaker in the panel to power the new heater. The capacity of your existing panel needs to be checked to confirm this can be done. If you only need a small unit, it is not as much of an issue. But a large unit requires as much as a 100amp breaker. It is definitely worth looking into. When I get/build my own house, I will be designing the hot water system around a tankless heater. 50 donations so far. Give it a try. You know you want to spank it Jump an Infinity

  7. I've had friends teach abroad in Japan. Loved the experience, hated the cost of living.$$$$ My sister helps run a foundation in Ecuador that has had several Peace Corps volunteers working for them. They all seemed to enjoy their time there. Ecuador is one of the more stable and safe SA countries. 50 donations so far. Give it a try. You know you want to spank it Jump an Infinity

  11. Your Russian jumps are part of your jump history. Keep your logbook and start your new one with a very simple list/description of your previous jumps with your next number jump starting your new logbook. Gear that is good to get early is a helmet, altimeter and goggles. Gloves if you are use to them. They are the least expensive and nice not to have to share with other students. They are all available at the DZ or online. 50 donations so far. Give it a try. You know you want to spank it Jump an Infinity

  14. Kitty, be careful which cards you close. Keep the one you have had the longest, even if you never use it. This card helps determine your credit rating. If you close accounts, make sure to have the card companies identify that the accounts were closed by cardmember request. If a lot of cards are closed at the same time without this notation, it can hurt your rating. 50 donations so far. Give it a try. You know you want to spank it Jump an Infinity
  15. The only debt I had was buying my new truck 15 years ago. Don't own a house so nada there. I spend only what I can fully pay off at the end of each month. I let the credit card company float me a loan until then. I'm pretty frugal by nature, so I have pretty low costs, other than skydiving. 50 donations so far. Give it a try.

  16. All of the DZs in the area have good programs. I went through AFF at Hollister and still jump there. I think they provide a quality program. One benefit for students is the van ride back from the landing area. You get your instructor's undivided attention for a very thorough debrief. They follow the ISP which has 7 jumps to complete AFF. It is not uncommon to have difficulties when you first start due to sensory overload. It took me a total of 8 jumps to complete my AFF and 25 to get my "A". Some people have completed AFF in less than 7. To qualify for your A license, you need 25 jumps and have all the requirements of the ISP completed through self supervision and coached jumps. I am a coach and would be happy to help with those. Hollister seems to have weather that is jumpable when other DZs are weathered out for due to wind or clouds. Less time sitting during a weather hold when you can be jumping instead. I would hold off on getting a suit. You can rent a suit or just jump in jeans and a sweat shirt until you start doing RW jumps. Once you have figured out your fallrate and consistently have good landings, I'd get the suit. No need to have a new jumpsuit getting grass/dirt stains from not so pretty landings. I would even suggest a used suit at first. Put the money saved towards your first rig. Good luck on your jumps and see you in the air. 50 donations so far. Give it a try. You know you want to spank it Jump an Infinity
  17. Result: Customer gets all the information in 4 minutes instead of 6 hours. They can come by and buy the item. Or maybe they feel this is pushy and get mad.*** I have bought and sold online. The best way to prevent having to ask/answer questions is for the seller to answer every possible question in the add before it is asked. As the seller, it might be obvious what is included by a picture. But also telling colors available, options, and what is not included will save all involved a lot of repeatedly answered questions. If you sell stock items, if a question is asked, modify your next add to cover the answer. I have had difficult dealings with sellers as well. Now I pass by adds that don't provide enough info up front. 50 donations so far. Give it a try. You know you want to spank it Jump an Infinity
