  7. Worse, the reserve is not a guaranty. Back in 93(?) in Keystone, FL a guy passed his AFF eval and to celebrate cutaway a perfectly good main to get a baglock on his reserve. wow, that's a REALLY bad day.. i would never do such a thing; and it's my BIRTHDAY today! “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.

  16. You say you make NZ$80K a year that comes to about $59,230 US. How many jumps do you make to earn the amount? As near as I can figure TI in the Us get around $35 for a tandem and a little more for packing, teaching and such. So let’s give them an average of $50 per jump. For a TI to make $59,000 + he would have to make close to 1,200 jumps each year. If you are paid NZ$75 per jump you are making about 1,100 jumps a year. That many jumps slinging meat is a lot of work. It is not a career it is a job. Sparky all i know is that a TI around here makes about 80$ per jump, so it adds up to about 8k per month, but only for a couple months tough, since our season seems to be rather shortish.. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.
