    Are you sure about the date when PCA became USPA? My D lic. was issued in 1969 and was from the Parachute Club of America. BCA

    "This is a Sport?" was great. We used to show it to new jumpers back in the mid 1960's. You might try a local college or university to see if they have an old projector stashed away some where. They usually keep everything. Just a suggestion. BCA

    I've read most of the posts regarding the "Hand" and I'm not sure where most of those stories came from. The infamous "hand" from back in the Gulch days at Casa Grande was owned by a jumper named Terry Cooper (now deceased) When not displaying it at some jump function, he actually kept it in his freezer. As I recall, he originally got the hand from some med school lab. BCA

    I remember back in the late 60's or early 70's, Charlie Merritt who owned a dz just north of Phoenix, flew his 182 to all lower 48. He took a couple of jumpers so they could log a jump in each state. They then flew commercially to AK and HI. Don't remember their names, but they did log jumps in all 50. BCA

    Nice collection. I have owned and jumped several of those rigs, including the surplus B4, the security crossbow, the mini system, the style master, the wonderhog, and my favorite the Rodriguez style container which I still have.

    Your correct, that is Tim Saltonstall on the cover. The magazine was a publication of North American Aerodynamics. The editor was Ron Edwards. If there were more than this one edition, I never saw them. BCA

    I came across this in my collection. I believe it was the only edition of Freefall magazine to be printed back in 1967. The cost of $.50.

    I don't have the manual anymore, but I still have a PC pin that they gave you when you bought a new canopy.Quote
