Update from B Burke re: SDAZ landing policy
wrightskyguy replied to billvon's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
Quoteits not like SDAZ doesnt have the land (or the money) for the most effective solution (separate landing areas) they just dont have the desire or the will to do so... *** It's pretty easy to tell other people what they should do with thier money. I bet they would build a seperate landing area if you agreed to pay for it and maintain it. John Wright World's most beloved skydiver -

QuoteI'm not saying Alabama is gonna have a great season this fall, we'll probably lose 2 or 3 conference games as we have a young defense coming in. But damn... no college has ever filled their stadium for a spring game! *** I heard that it was because someone started a rumor that they wete giving away free Jerry Springer tickets.

Bryan Burke - SDAZ 270 Policy notes
wrightskyguy replied to billvon's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
QuoteI think Eloy will lose a lot of excellent staff because of the rules and if all those staff/teams move onto other dzs then Eloy will become a mediocre dz that only offers good weather, an Otter to jump out, plus a wind tunnel, but with no "top level" load organisers, skydiving and tunnel coaches. *** Do you really believe the staff is gonna split? And just where exactly are they going to go? What about the tunnel coaches? Oh yeah, they'll go down the street to "tunnels are us", or any of the other wind tunnel complexes springing up all over the Southwest where they are allowed to do anything they want and get huge pay raises. People that work at DZ's go where the jumpers are, period. For any one staffer that does leave, I guarantee you that there are 100 waiting to take thier place who are just as qualified.

QuoteWhat I am trying to say is that making rules about banning swoopers from the main landing area at all times is not the solution to this problem. *** Having seperate landings areas for high performance landings and pattern flyers is not "Banning swoopers". It's merely seperating folks who should not be sharing the same pattern. I fail to see what is so hard to understand about it. I love to swoop, but I have no problem landing in a different area.

Mounted GPS Antenna on Frap Hat. Comments?
wrightskyguy replied to efs4ever's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
Just curious, what are you using the GPS for? John Wright World's most beloved skydiver -
QuoteNASCAR Jumps are not as easy as they used to be. We now have to contend with the cable camera that zips around the front straight away area, the crane cameras, the crew camera and the 6 foot antenna they carry, the portable stage with 1000 + lucky pre-race concert fans, walk ways, canons, color guards, drivers and the 20+ person entourage, etc. *** Yes, all of these things are at Race track jumps, but the jumpers should all be aware of these things already. I think the toughest part of one of these demos is trying to work your way into the the picture while the celebrity sings the Star Spangled Banner. John Wright World's most beloved skydiver

QuoteDon't be too quick to judge...it can happen to the best... *** Don't mean to be quick to judge,but a jump into a NASCAR event is about as easy as demos get. Unless there was some sort of unforseen problem or medical issue, there's no reason for a PRO rated jumper to miss the target area at a race track. Hope everyone is ok.

Are you saying they missed the track? Must not have been much of demo jumper, providing he had a good canopy. John Wright World's most beloved skydiver
