Thanks Brian. I had been using the Dynamic IP address lookup Hammernode (sort of) which has recently "turned down". I've swapped the name-servers over but it will probably take a while to kick in. In the meantime, here are the details: Date Location Category Age # Jumps AAD?/RSL? 3/9/1996 Brownsville, TX EXC,LOWT 22 200 ?/? Description: From Houston Chronicle:A parachutist in a weekend air show died after he lost control of his jump and crash-landed just yards away from spectators. [The jumper] died Sunday after suffering severe head trauma in the fall, said Tom Treu, a spokesman at Columbia Valley Regional Medical Center. The accident occurred minutes after Air Fiesta '96 began Saturday at the Brownsville-South Padre Island International Airport. "It sounded horrible, like a cracking noise," said [observer], who was standing just yards from where Cantu landed. A friend of [deceased] who also made the jump said he did not know what went wrong. He said [the deceased] was an experienced parachutist who learned to jump in the U.S. Marine Corps. From Skydiving: He made a sharp toggle input to his Triathlon 190 50ft. off of the ground.

Oh, I don't know, an immediate cross jumprun flight could be pretty safe.....joking :-P Nah, just for the aftermath p.s. Eddie (Bodypilot) got a jump on a Phi yesterday ( or was it today, the days are beginning to blur), and he's promised I can borrow it for the next fun load. 2-way? :-) Skydiving Fatalities - Cease not to learn 'til thou cease to live

As much as I hate to admit it (both Andy Scott and I both debated on whether to bring our wingsuits for the mass demo, but decided not too "mainly" due to baggage allowance restrictions :-P), I saw Saskia loading onto the G-222 wearing her wingsuit...[expletive deleted] :-P Skydiving Fatalities - Cease not to learn 'til thou cease to live

So which is it? You only have 10 space minutes (are they different from Earth minutes) or you are afraid of persecution? Maybe we should get this out into the open. Everyone keeps seeming to dance around this. I believe there is enough info in the Council Minutes that we may as well speak plainly. I think that is the problem. With your anonymity and flavour of review, everyone is assuming you are Piers anyway (which after his actions could arguably invalidate yours (his) opinions). The grammar, lack of punctuation/capitalisation and spelling mistakes, I must say I'm inclined to agree, unless you prove otherwise. For the record, I think Netheravon is a great dropzone and I enjoy myself everytime I go there. Yes, it's not perfect, no dropzone is, but they are trying to improve. However I don't feel I go there often enough to validate a proper review. Skydiving Fatalities - Cease not to learn 'til thou cease to live

Not all the time, but a couple of World Team sectors have one: Sector Eleven and Sector Ten Skydiving Fatalities - Cease not to learn 'til thou cease to live

That's better Yes. Or rather, I won't delete it but that decision may one day come down to Dave or Matt (Crocker). Skydiving Fatalities - Cease not to learn 'til thou cease to live

If anyone is going to the BPA AGM on saturday and you want a copy, let me know and I'll bring one with me, as long as you promise to pay your dues to the guys. Don't have a colour printer, so I can't provide covers. Skydiving Fatalities - Cease not to learn 'til thou cease to live

I did wonder if I was doing anything silly, and I still might be, but I checked the file with GSpot and for the Audio Codec it says "No Audio Channels". 11 people have downloaded it so far. Anybody else? Skydiving Fatalities - Cease not to learn 'til thou cease to live

Nice thanks So, you are saying 134 non-Premier members are contributing 37.25% of the total posts on this website? Name and shame them I say! Skydiving Fatalities - Cease not to learn 'til thou cease to live

Ok, these are Superbreak booked rooms. £56 for the friday and saturday. Was hoping someone would make an offer and I could split the difference on my hotel booked rooms but there had been no interest. I would rather see someone get them at these prices than for my friend to cancel, for them to go back in the pool, and be sold at full price. He's going to cancel soon so you need to let me know fast. Sold. Skydiving Fatalities - Cease not to learn 'til thou cease to live

You should use the contact form on the website. PilotDave is away at the moment until the 23rd. In the meanwhile, I am managing the site and you can PM me. But it seems that you managed to upload the file in the end Olek and I have approved it! Very urban! Skydiving Fatalities - Cease not to learn 'til thou cease to live

Johnny, I think its the single quote you have in "Bridge Day '03". Try without that? Skydiving Fatalities - Cease not to learn 'til thou cease to live

PilotDave is away at the moment, and I don't know if mcrocker reads these forums, but I'm going to say that this is too big for skydivingmovies.com. The website eats bandwidth as it is, and judging by the popularity of this video, a 700MB file would probably be crippling. A torrent would be a much, much better idea. Share the load people.

Does anyone need a room for the AGM? Don't know if the hotel has any left or not. Got a friend who can't make it. Friday and Saturday night. £115 or make him an offer. Skydiving Fatalities - Cease not to learn 'til thou cease to live

Whilst the icons in profiles are constrained to the 65x75 dimensions, the images themselves do not have to physically be this size (although in order for the image not to be distorted, the same ratio should be adhered to), so long as the are 10Kb in size or less. Quite a few members have cottoned on to this, and make full use of their allowance, such as myself (although perversely, not at this time, but see attachement for my previous avatar), and Rosa comes to mind (don't know why :-P). So how about making the image on the profile page clickable so that it can be viewed in all its glory? Skydiving Fatalities - Cease not to learn 'til thou cease to live
