  1. I used the Javalin form and sent those measurents to Aerodyne. They were very helpful with sizing on used gear. Give them a call.
  2. If we’re betting on what it is, my bet is D.B. Cooper’s missing money.
  3. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HnoSxiVsrcI The tributes left out Cool Hand Luke.
  4. Hey Mike - Cool vid! Highly recommend your book. I'm pretty sure y'all jumped into the LAGCO expo in Lafayette in the early 70's. https://youtu.be/sG_WDeRbeiQ
  5. Skydive Tennessee looks to be in the zone. Skydive West Tennessee is in the 90% zone.
  6. Timski - Agreed. Indigenous snakes get a pass. Balance of nature and all.
  7. It’s also a little personal with me. An 8-ft boa was captured 5 feet from my garage right next to where my kids play. My daughters were 3 & 5 at the time. Perfect snack size.The snake was a lost pet named Pedro. He had been lost for two weeks and was three blocks from his keeper’s house. I was out of town when it happened otherwise...whack ‘em. Hopefully the “pet” in the article below is captured soon. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/animalia/wp/2017/03/18/the-cobra-jumped-at-him-how-a-deadly-snake-went-missing-in-central-florida/?utm_term=.2a7bab425e06
  8. Really? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IHE9JzNSMU4
  9. Hey Timski – Remember pythons are an invasive species and they are wreaking havoc on the Everglades. Whack away on them. At 6:50 take the shot. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ODjCgBl-nJ0
  10. From Youtube it looks like N50JJ. Registry shows as deregistered with JETTRAN, LLC holding reserve on the number. Owner before deregistration listed as Skydive Factory, Inc.
  11. Can't be very good on your knees or your rig when sliding around.
  12. I don't think it has been controversial. The training is very intense. EP's are drilled in. There have been malfunctions handled correctly (see youtube). Haven't heard of any major injuries.
  13. 8-foot boa constrictor named Pedro. Actually, my wife found it. I was out of town that day.

  16. Don't get it? Wasn't intended to be impolite. Just giving respect to the kids that represented us over there. (not me - too young) Apologies given where needed.
  17. How did he deploy the reserve?
