    Do you smoke?

    My mother died of lung cancer a little over a year ago. It wasn't from smoking though, it was from asbestos. She died of Mesothelioma, I think its spelled right. she was also a lifetime smoker which didn't help. Experience is a difficult teacher, she gives you the test first and the lesson afterward

  24. as a jump pilot I give 5min, 3,2, and 1 min noticices to jumpers away on ALL local frequencies and give ATC a 3 min heads up so they can check radar for possible conflicting air traffic.
