  1. dumped at 1700 once- missed the pud the first try, had a hard pull the second, on a demo rig... Brokeneagle. I'm really very gentle, no matter what my kung-fu teacher says... he is giving me a reputation I do not deserve!
  2. Spectre 190 representing here- ready and willing to fly its' heart out-- LOVE them 7 cell wonders!! Faye, aka Brokeneagle. I'm really very gentle, no matter what my kung-fu teacher says... he is giving me a reputation I do not deserve!
  3. Nice suit, AggieDave! Glad you found out Bev Suits are definitely the way to go; and John and I can personally endorse both their HotBod and camera suits-- my HotBod allows me to match the big boys' fall rates and floaters with no problems; John's camera suit allows him to get right in there with very different sized tandem students Bev Suits rock! Excellent workmanship, measurements, and delivery- and Bev backs up her work as well-
  4. Aiyahhhhh, poor sky-brother; send much empathy; joined the ranks of the unemployed meself June 13th - wish I could assist with the flight instruction; but have ye spoken with Wendel or Russell Still? One of them could possibly assist or know of a likely candidate- BTW, the Porter was a lie, anyway, unintentionally Sat. am, Greg called Sandor and informed him of the ol' bait-and-switch with a different twist-- sent us a nice Cessna Caravan instead doncha jest love those unexpected upgrades! Anyway, sorry ye couldn't make it out, Fei-long.... mebbe things'll work out better for us all in th' unseeable future-- Blue Skies, Soft landings always, my friend-- Faye.

  6. Yep, we just LOVE them fas' planes- and the top is where we can have the most fun that I know of-- love to look out and see the mountains' beauty and over the clouds-- and isn't it fun to freak out observers and whuffos? Faye. I'm really very gentle, no matter what my kung-fu teacher says... he is giving me a reputation I do not deserve!
  7. Stop by and see us when ya come thru, sah- we'll be honored ta jump wit' ya, even if ya play with sheep a bit too often.... Faye. I'm really very gentle, no matter what my kung-fu teacher says... he is giving me a reputation I do not deserve!
  8. Friends, Romans, my Fellow Skydiving Scum, Georgia Skydiving Center is proud to announce that the Fantabulous Pilatus Porter is returning to Rome this weekend--yes, you heard right! Come one, come all, enjoy one of the best jumpships to hit North Georgia! Stretch out yer legs with her roomy seating, test drive the Porter's quick takeoffs and efficient climbing, and, holy Simolean, lookit those mountains with awllll that ALTITUDE!! No measly 10,000 feet for us this weekend- it's all the way to the top, my friends- 14,000 feet, ahhhhh, America ees beeyootiful, especially from our vantage point! For those who have not joined us in a while, yes, we are still without our building, but there is plenty of shade, running water (tho slightly chilly, especially early in the morning) and the camping is free and easy-- (so's Sandor, but don't tell him I said that) Also, for an extra added bonus, we will be throwing our favorite pilot Brad the Bad out of the perfectly good Porter for his second tandem on Sunday- he says we can't have all the fun after his experience with us last weekend! Nothing like converting a perfectly good pilot into one of us, eh? So, come on out from under those rocks, dust off yer gear- come and jump the Porter with us! Blue Skies, Soft landings always! Faye Taylor, aka Brokeneagle. I'm really very gentle, no matter what my kung-fu teacher says... he is giving me a reputation I do not deserve!

  12. Yep, I've found them working in different courthouses, taking martial arts, and even eating out at restaurants, posing as everyday assholes..... until they see you're wearing skydivng shirts or such- then they come out of hiding right quick- Brokeneagle. I'm really very gentle, no matter what my kung-fu teacher says... he is giving me a reputation I do not deserve!

  14. Hello, Joe! Whadda'ya know? Glad you found the Forums- feel free to ask any questions you have about the sport here; most of us are friendly, some of us will even jump with you- (j/k) Take the time to look at all the dropzones here; each has a different flavor- Monroe is a great place; has excellent facilities- Rome has had the best aerial views for it's mountains- Thomaston has the most freeflyers- welcome to the sport!
  15. Thanks fer th' vote, little sister- respect 'n hugs back to ya'-- let's not forget our sweet Becky, guys- always supportive and helpful thruout-- very brave, cool and unique females, our skysisters, all of you- for whatever reasons you jump-- Brokeneagle.

  16. hot jasmine green tea from China; no sugar or milk- and a cuppa coffee on th' side with hazelnut creamer- 'm a heavy drinker in th' morning..... Brokeneagle. I'm really very gentle, no matter what my kung-fu teacher says... he is giving me a reputation I do not deserve!
  17. As a student, I was taught to set my brakes, then daisy-chain my lines to keep them from tangling on the walk in from the student landing area- but that was back in the day of Dacron lines on F-111 canopies; today's micro-lines are almost as easy to just gather/control in large loops- Brokeneagle.

  18. Happy Birthday, JT! (strumming gently chorded background on old Fender) 'May you live a thousand years, may you drink a thousand beers, (deep breath) Get Plastered, You Basterd, Happy Boithday to youuuuu!' Brokeneagle.

  19. Agreed- looks like a good way to open up a spam avenue- 'n I get enough spam mail from 'opt-in' third partiers- Besides, I already know I'm an eagle. Brokeneagle. I'm really very gentle, no matter what my kung-fu teacher says... he is giving me a reputation I do not deserve!

    tea..??

    I drink hot tea, not iced sweet supermarket stuff-- loose-leaf imports, mainly greens, a couple black teas, mostly flavored with fruits, flowers, berries, etc., fresh Egyptian chamomile, etc.-- specialty teas, if you will- my favorite, tho, is a rolled leaf jasmine green tea from China called jasmine dragon phoenix pearls- 'n I like mine straight- no sugar, no milk or cream--
  21. uhmmmm, er, why I don't know anyone that drives like that..... (glancing around quickly to see if laughing daughter is still standing behind her) Very funny! Brokeneagle. I'm really very gentle, no matter what my kung-fu teacher says... he is giving me a reputation I do not deserve!

  24. True, leetle one- Some chick from ASC called my John on the telephone to advertise the Casa and woke him from his night-shift sleep- the female kept her sales patter up over the fact he informed her he was trying to sleep- no classatall- Got his number from the waiver he filled out when they made one jump out there months ago- they have no scruples for fair play- and yes, JT ((love the new avatar) I also believe these price specials should be EVERY DAY, not just boogies!
