Well they already have a set fee for the ground school and coach jumps the the BMI makes. Asking for the DZ to pay the coach directly on top of that is ridiculous. An airline ticket, maybe. A place to stay a given. For Scott Miller's Canopy course you provide a plane ticket and a place to stay and then he has his set course fees. He allows the DZ's to charge more to pay for the cost of his airline tickets and hotel if needed. Since BMI has pretty standard prices, it is difficult to charge more than that. I am only covering slots for the big way organizer and freefly organizers and coaches. Still working on 1 on 1 freefly coaching. We may have people pay a slot. It just seems that for a company trying to sell a $700 and up item, they would be more cooperative. Maybe we just caught them on an off week. But this being the 5th AOTMB and 4th I have been involved in organizing, I guess I am just able to find people who love to give back or promote their product/talent and manage to be that far off THE NORM.

She rocked. Great climbout, count, and launch. Clean flyaway. No signals given. 45 degree turn once while checking altitude (wrist), but stopped and turned back to original heading. Great Alt Aware, wave and pull. Todd AFFI I am not totally useless, I can be used as a bad example.

On help from Birdman: Jari basically said I have attached the information about the course and jumps, what will the DZ do (airline, hotel, money for instructors) that helps to get someone there. So we needed to have people pay for the ground school and jumps, and I guess we were suppose to get them here and pay them too? It just didn't make me what to work toward getting them business and I own one of their suits. Todd I am not totally useless, I can be used as a bad example.
