I did ignore it, and then started to wonder if it was achiveble. -- Hope you don't die. -- I'm fucking winning

Wouldn't a 10 degree gradient along one edge give you a 1.25 mile runway anyway ? -- Hope you don't die. -- I'm fucking winning

Thanks for all your time & input guys, that was the sort of feedback i needed to hear. I am just eager to get in the air with my own gear & get down to buisness. I suppose i will have to look around for something that will fit the container, although it would have to be an F111, ....if i am correct on the container size, model no.SJ3 ? does that sound right ? I did look on the PD site at the wingloading charts, and did not realize that they did not recommend anything above a 1.1:1 for the 9 cell. Ok so any suggestions about what i can safely fit into this container, or am i stuck with it until i lose some weight or do i need to change the container too ? (which i think i may be the way to go) Thanks in advance again. I also started a diet today. -- Hope you don't die. -- I'm fucking winning

The main i am pretty sure i could land, but i hear that "voice" which i think was Billvons (could be wrong) saying if you can't land your canopy in all conditions then you haven't mastered it. I will not be downsizing for probably 300 jumps, not even sure why i even said that ? i may not even downsize at all. All the diciplines i want to do don't involve small canopys anyway, but i have to start somewhere. And my real concern as i said is the reserve, i will get grief for not doing a search, but its late here and i would just like a few opinions to chew over. [edit]ps. thanks for your input btw.

So i got a new (to me) rig, it has a pd190 9 cell main & a pd160 reserve. I have 35 jumps on a 240 navigator, about 18 on a 220 & 1 on a 200 and 1 on a saphire 209. I think you know what i am going to say anyway, but for those who don't... Would you consider this to be a fairly safe downsizing ? I have stood all my landings since i came off student status, although when i was using the nav 220's i could not slow the landings down i tried flairing slightly earlier and later but faster but to no avail (wind conditions were about 15-20knts on the ground too). I tried using a 200 and everything was sweet again (don't ask me how) The reserve size also concerns me too, i weigh about 220lbs out of the door and a 1.375 wing loading seems way too high even for a reserve. What are your recommendations & am i right in my thinking here ? -- Hope you don't die. -- I'm fucking winning

Craig Poxon i believe is responsible for setting up speedskydiving.net. (i may be wrong) He may be worth a shout too. -- Hope you don't die. -- I'm fucking winning

Repack is good till August, and yes i have the RSL too. I will have to get back to you on the closing loop though. Thanks again. -- Hope you don't die. -- I'm fucking winning

Just a quick one. I need a full rig inspection, an RSL re-fitting (was took off by a rigger) & the closing loop needs lengthening (smaller canopy lived in the container) Just wondering what sort of price in £ or $ i should be expecting. The work will be done at Langar anyway & i don't expect to get turned over, but forwarned is forearmed as they say. Thanks. -- Hope you don't die. -- I'm fucking winning

If it doesn't kill you, it makes you stronger. You don't need that much to get the most out of life dude, if it all goes to shit you can still enjoy life..maybe without some of the trappings of wealth, but never the less, we all get by in our own ways. As for pride, you have done your best and more, besides ..your employer is the one who has made the errors of judgment by being too greedy in a saturated market & having no "vision" or contingency plans. The guy on the floor gets his ass kicked every day by people like this (same the world over). But at least you know whats coming, and that is some comfort at least .... as strange as it may sound. Your company has failed you ... not the other way round as they want you to think. -- Hope you don't die. -- I'm fucking winning
