If you go to www.freefly.com (i think that;s what it is...)they have a link for an upcoming extreme sports mag including skydiving. you can give some info in there and get a free issue once it comes out. blue skies Tomas

I got my tony suit in 4 weeks. Granted, the pattern i ordered was really simple with not a lot of options (don't know if that matters). Hope yours comes in soon. blue ones, Tomas "Marge, it takes 2 people to lie. One to lie and one to listen." -Homer

83.3 (speed at which the police plane clocked me on my way to Vandalia): 8: 2 Slow weekend. Got 5 in on friday at hinckley, including a kickass 14 way tracking dive. yesterday the threat of rain made it so that we only got 3 king air loads at archway, but i got my freefly suit (after only 4 weeks!!) and i got to play with it...it is a bit different having all that drag on my arms while headdown but it flies great and the change in fall rate you can do when sitflying is freaking cool. 2 for first ticket, and first jumpsuit. blue skies Tomas "Marge, it takes 2 people to lie.

For those interested, Hinckley was manifesting a sunset load monday at sunset--i would think something along the lines of a tracking dive towards the eclipse. "Marge, it takes 2 people to lie. One to lie and one to listen." -Homer

I caught a bit where there was a Miss Cyprus. Is she the kind that pops open if you go down too fast? "Marge, it takes 2 people to lie. One to lie and one to listen." -Homer

Caravans are nice cuz the door is still decently big. The King Air is nice too, but aside from a CASA my favorite plane so far has to be SDC's otter with the stereo in it....cool ass plane. blue skies Tomas "Marge, it takes 2 people to lie. One to lie and one to listen." -Homer

The doctor thing is different from the railroad thing in that the man 's organs belong to HIM. They are HIS. So not only would he be dying by your choice, you would be stealing his own organs to save the others. In the train example, he happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. In that case, though, i would not hit the switch because it comes down to I would feel directly responsable for the one man's death (without all the legal mumbo-jumbo) whereas the 5 were going to die anyway since they had the bad luck to be there with the switch pointing the track in that way.

Well put, well put....the weekend can't be put into words but that was a pretty good description of a lot of what went on. I took the freeflying route, and hammered out a crapload of jumps myself....wow what a great weekend. blue skies Tomas "Marge, it takes 2 people to lie. One to lie and one to listen." -Homer -
I agree....be careful when freeflying about getting too crazy cuz stuff can happen really fast. I did a ton of dives this weekend where i gradually picked up headdown but i didnt get close to anyone unless i was sure of my ability and their own. Missy Nelson was at our DZ for the weekend and Saturday night went over the importance of being aware in this kind of thing as she discussed what happened at Skydive Chicago last weekend. blue skies, and stay safe Tomas "Marge, it takes 2 people to lie.
