  1. I feel the same way...scared to death but wouldn't give it up for anything....no matter how many people tell me i'm crazy. Sometimes when I'm driving in my car behind a truck and smell the exhaust fumes, it reminds me of the smell of the plane and I get the urge to jump out the car window!!! I'm definatly hooked!
  2. I have a friend who had a collapsed lung (spontaneous pneumothorax) about 2 years ago. He had surgery to remove 5% of one lung. His doctor has cleared him to fly. I was wondering if anyone knows if skydiving could possibly cause this to happen again.
  3. Hey!! I'm from NY too, but more upstate. I jump at pennridge in PA. I have 5 jumps so far (still in AFF). It's always cool to have other students to jump with and it's a good place to learn. PM me if you want!
  4. I'm an aff student and before I started the course I was reading EVERYTHING on the net that I could find. When I went in for my fjc and thought I knew all the answers....i was WRONG!! If I hadn't asked so many questions I probably would've done something to hurt myself. Now I only listen to my JMs. Even TIs that work at the dz I go to won't answer questions that I ask. They say to only ask my JM...so that's what I do from now on. I do think it is ok to read about these incidents on these forums and ask YOUR jm, but NEVER follow anyone's advice!
