Or you are pregnant. Really, hope all works out.

We will be hosting a benefit boogie at Skydive Elsinore this weekend, 17-18 July. Check the website for details, etc.

Because for a small DZ we have 2 otters. Most small DZs have one 182. As for Perris being really, really, really, really big, they add the SkyVan to their 2 operational otters on busy weekends. When big ways are abound, they recruit other turbines from around the west, including 3MA or 6MA. Even El Snore will have 3 otters and a SkyVan for Chicks Rock. Then it becomes a really big DZ. Ask Rich how small Elsinore is compared to his old/new DZ. 4 way is 3 skydivers with 1 video; an Aggie 4 way. Oh, and did I mention a helo, too??!!

Its not the only story I have heard about this, or the only team. So, a) your buddies are misrepresenting their product? or b) telling stories to avoid ridicule by know-it-alls? It's not like anybody is forcing them to use an unsafe product. If they truly do not believe in it, why the charade? Why risk their lives? If they are getting paid aren't using it, they should probably give the money back, or buy a Cypres with their sponsorship money. But then again, you know the truth. Why don't you get your friends to post on here on their experiences.

Congrats! If you are going to Sac., you might want to sneak away to Skydance Skydiving, which is in Davis.

This "Enter the pattern at 1000 feet" concept we teach

Except that one by the motocross track... Oh, wait! That was with me! Actually that was a very good approach and landing that you did. The MX'ers enjoyed our demo. -
Thank you for sharing the letter. I did not know John, but I knew of him from Rich, Mikey & Jenny. He sounds very much like a very nice, and courageous man; one who I'd like to have a beer with; Shiner, of course. Blue skies forever, John! Mark

You must work with the fucking CIA....

Yep, same 'ol intelligence agency that your boy Clinton depended on. But yeah, sure blew the shit out of that milk factory and the Chinese embassy.

I'm sure they're sending their donations to re-elect the president...right after yours.

Must not have been that great of one since they're now being hunted. Oh, and provide a URL for Quade's benefit.

Why? Would it have been anymore credible? It was quoted on CNN Headline news. It must be true.

How will you know who's jumping with one? Will you conduct a gear inspection before each jump? If you are concerned about an AAD fire you're better off doing solos. AADs are not infallible no matter what brand you choose.

Must be an accurate documentary as Hezbollah has endorsed it.

Whoa! Glad you're ok. Good thing he didn't have to go to Home Depot.

Congratulations!

Dude, you're FedEx'ing coffee to the land of Starbucks & Tully's???? That's like sending oranges to FL or Lobster to ME.

I have seen exactly the opposite at DZ's. I worked at a DZ where a tandem I forgot to hook up the upper connections. He would have never known if the cameraman hadn't pointed it out. he was back doing tandems the next day. Is this TI an AFF-I as well?
-
If you assume that the DZ hires anyone with an AFF-I.... Most of the large DZs I know have high standards and it can be difficult to get on staff. You can be shit hot flyer, but if you can't teach, is the student any safer? If you suck you will not last long at the DZ. As a prospective student you should visit the DZ and talk with the instructional staff.

Congrats! Guess that would be 2 cases of ; 1 for 500, and 1 for just finding out!

I don't drink any more. Maybe Perris No Mo BOOZE That might fit because Maubeuge is in Paris now. Or would that be Vallée de Paris Skydiving?

Cool deal! Is your grill on one of the characters? Not a PS2 game yet is it?

Dude, no kidding. Freakin' photo ops. It's amazing he never put on a flight suit and hitched a ride on a fighter jet to land on an aircraft carrier. It's only because there wasn't enough security and the SS feared for his life. 5,000 sailors wanted to beat the shit out of him. The salty dogs not aboard were busy burning their retirement certificates with WJC's signature on it.

Too much sunlight in the NW, huh?!
