  1. Who let Satan's minion back on this thread? I thought he gave up those shinanigans for lent! Satan's minion?? Uhmmmm... and here I thought it was the voice of an angel I heard selling tiny bits of heaven... The only naturals in this sport shit thru feathers...
  2. Yes, they're gone already... so is the hot chocolate... The only naturals in this sport shit thru feathers...
  3. Too hot, definitely... I haven't seen a "real" winter in 7 years since I moved to Florida and not being all that big (read skinny) I get cold way too easily. I handle the heat alot better than I do the cold.... The only naturals in this sport shit thru feathers...
  4. I certainly wouldn't call skydiving safe... I would say it's safer now than it was 30 years ago but by no means does that mean it's safe now. Maybe in another 30 or 40 years it will be safe (i.e. low risk), I think I'll stick around and find out... The only naturals in this sport shit thru feathers...

  6. You need to be able to visualize them and where they fit into the universe. Try this. Imagine that the woman in your life has done something out of line and is obviously in need of an "attitude adjustment". That's when you march her fucking ass into the bedroom, make her pull out a pair of black fishnets, a garter belt, and some long spike heels. Make her put them on while you explain to her that you're just not in the mood to take any shit from from anyone--especially her--and that you are going to lay some major league spank on her ass until she tells you she's got her attitude back where it needs to be. She'll probably be a little hesitant, but since you're not in the mood to take any of her shit, you tell her to "get to it!". Then you make her bend over the bed. Those spike heels put her ass high in the air--right at the perfect height. The black fishnets and garter belt are gonna do a really nice job of framing her red ass after a few good spanks. Time to spank that ass. After she realizes her attitude is straightened out and she tells you she's ok now, it's her job to please you. The fishnets and garter and heels have done their job. So have you. Any questions? Walt Thanks Walt... now all the blood has left my head.. feeling a bit light headed here... The only naturals in this sport shit thru feathers...

    Don't gotta piss them off.... rainy season comes shortly after tourist season ends... we'll be dry again in October.. The only naturals in this sport shit thru feathers...

  12. I'm a software developer, and have to agree that the cost here is not the displays. You could go with VR glasses... but honestly using projector screens would probably be the best because it would provide entertainment for spectators as well. Projectors are dirt cheap. You can get a VERY nice setup for less than $15,000... Software development, on the other hand - even if you provide "fake" environments (not real dropzones), and just a few, you're looking at over $750,000 in development. You might get away with less, if you're a company that already does flight simulators and has a lot of the engine and console work and experience in-house.... but these are low estimates... It would not be unrealistic for the total costs to exceed 3 million, just for a basic feature set. there are not exactly pre-researched physicals engines to control lifelike parachute flight... Writing a starwars space flight simulator is easy, but if you start to talk about real flight simulators, (Microsoft's Flight Simulator is one of the best at-home simulators, and has a very realistice physics engine) the research work alone becomes quite heavy. If you start talking about providing the ability to fly at "real" dropzones... you're adding even more staff to your development team. You need surveyours and more talented artists... What I'm getting at, is that the cost of visual display's is nothing... Matt That's about what I had figured, that the software development would be prohibitive. Riggerrob mentions the basic software already seems to be out there for military and smoke jumper use so someone already developed the physics engines, whether they'd be willing to release them is a different story though. Also, wouldn't it be easier to use aerial photos and topographic maps for dz layouts rather than having them surveyed? They wouldn't have to be exact, just close enough that the student would be able to recognize where they were going. I'm not a software developer but these are some thoughts I've had, I don't know what all goes into building a semi-realistic simulator. They claim it's "affordable" http://www.stiparasim.com/index.html The only naturals in this sport shit thru feathers...
  13. I am not a lawyer this is strictly my opinion That being said.... I don't see how his being on disability would affect him having custody of his children as long as he's capable of caring for them. I would definitely recommend consulting with a lawyer who specializes in child custody in your area regarding this. The only naturals in this sport shit thru feathers...

  19. The biggest expense would definitely be in the software development department due to the small market. You wouldn't actually need to buy the screens when a pair of VR goggles would do the trick. Not only would you be able to change canopy sizes at the click of a mouse, you'd be able to change dz's just as easily. You could change the weather, wind direction and speed too. It would definitely be useful to students as well as for someone wanting to downsize canopies. I think it would also be useful for canopy control courses as well as for learning to swoop and perhaps even CReW. Any software developers out there?

  20. You're right of course.. most people are right handed and that's the side they'd grab, especially if they had something in their hands. The only naturals in this sport shit thru feathers...
  21. Well, I do work at a custom cabinet shop as a designer.. I'd recommend using a pull that matches the knobs, it would look better and give you a better grip to open the drawers (especially after they're filled)... and if you don't already have them take out the drawer glides and install the Blum full extension models....

  22. So here we are a month after I originally started this thread and rather than start a new one I figured I'd just update this one.... Today I finally finished my AFF jumps! That's right people, only 15 jumps to finish AFF... What was really funny was doing my hop-n-pop, exiting the door, looking up at the plane and seeing the door filled with the faces of the instructors I had jumped with...
  23. Uhmmm... PLF? The only naturals in this sport shit thru feathers...
  24. Neither... for drawers that size you really need a pull not a knob.. The only naturals in this sport shit thru feathers...
