  3. Green isn't just reduced home energy usage, recycling and non-stinky paint. Want to make a huge dent in the impact on the earth. Build your home SMALLER. Doesn't take as much resources to build/maintain. I volunteer with Habitat for Humanity. Their slogan is "A simple, decent place to live". Their large home design is around 1200sf. Mr. and Mrs. Green living in a 3000+sf home and claiming to be green is a joke. True green building also takes into account the cost to the planet for extracting/reusing resources. If the rag cotton insulation that doesn't use an ozone depleting blowing agent has to be shipped from the producer of the waste material to the manufacturer half way across the country, and then back to your new green house, that is a lot of burned hydrocarbons. I was on a "green" project that had wool carpet from New Zealand air freighted because of a deadline. Not too green. Start out with engineering the house so it uses passive heating and cooling(trees, window shades, cross ventilation, south facing windows with proper overhangs). Build using a 4' grid instead of lots of odd room/wall sizes and weird roof angles. Since most materials come in 2' increments, the 4' grid means much less waste during construction. Solar water heating and PV are great, but some of the fabricating processes use some nasty materials.(Bill, jump in on the the newer stuff). Don't get me wrong, I am a greeny about construction. I just like to look at the big picture instead of the latest buzz about using this or doing that which makes joe shmoe feel green. /rant skymama, a well engineered home will not cost that much more to actually be green. 50 donations so far.

  4. I have a Talon of the same vintage. It seemed to be a bit of a hybrid between the T1 and T2. Mine has the BOC cover flap they only installed for a short time. My rigger replaced the soft housings. Don't remember the cost. It currently has about 800 jumps on it. Now it is just a backup rig. I have used it for CRW, RW and WS. It can be used for FF, but just make sure the walrus teeth on the main cover flap are in good condition and you install the ghetto keeper(rubberband) on the reserve cover flap. Only do this with help from someone that knows how to install it so it doesn't hinder a reserve deployment. 50 donations so far. Give it a try. You know you want to spank it Jump an Infinity
  5. QuoteSomewhere in this thread is an answer, and as a bonus you can see me be an asshole. It's nice to know there are some things that just never change. 50 donations so far. Give it a try. You know you want to spank it Jump an Infinity

    Tax Day!

    Completed mine this morning. I have my deductions dialed in pretty good. I either owe or get back less than $100. This year was $29 refund total. 50 donations so far. Give it a try. You know you want to spank it Jump an Infinity

  9. All wingsuits are just copies of other suits. Kind of like Infinity is just a copy of the Javelin container. The picture of the BM suit is on the ground. Hence no inflation. The S-Fly suits are a "monowing" so the whole body pressurizes. It won't look the same as a PF or Tonysuit. The V3 and Raptor are also newer designs and have newer inlets with airlocks to maximize pressurization. 50 donations so far. Give it a try. You know you want to spank it Jump an Infinity

  11. Even better, put a table spoon of vanilla extract in the paint. It won't change the color and will kill the smell.

  13. Look here for sizing info. Quite a few container manufacturers use Cazers as OEM PCs. Unless the bridle is sown to the D-bag, it should be pretty easy to change out the PC. 50 donations so far. Give it a try. You know you want to spank it Jump an Infinity

  16. Aah..always funny, those Americans who think they are the only timezone in the world.. We're not? Pssssst. We have more than one time zone. Unlike most itty bitty euro countries. 50 donations so far. Give it a try. You know you want to spank it Jump an Infinity
  17. I borrowed a Firebird for a few jumps prior to buying my first suit, a Phantom. I have several jumps on a Phantom2 prototype and just put 5 jumps on the T-Bird. Hands down I would go with a Ph2 or T-Bird. The difference in performance is remarkable. 50 donations so far. Give it a try. You know you want to spank it Jump an Infinity
