I think you and Marco C.( and a few others out there) take this way too seriously. The whole ratings thing sounds like another version of the Dolphin ratings. Regardless of who invented it or invented a name for it, it is still a form of....... Oh my dear Scott, How the tables have turned what if somebody challenged the wingsuit instructor program with this exact line of logic? The same wingsuit instructor program that JP Furnari himself invented years ago way back in Davis before you and Chuck took it and refined it into what it is today. Would you be defensive? Would you be as serious as our European readers are protective? Relax our Euro cousins love doing the atmonauti, while we embrace JP Furnari's contributions in the form of the first wingsuit instructor program and the Furnarimonauti ( north american atmo navigation )

Too lazy to go to the dz to see the suit in person? Lazy no, working nights right now. Go to the DZ I just might, warning to James & K. But I was trying to save my money to jump with you guys Ed but if I see the suit in person I may just buy it off his back ( not the pink one, the yellow one we all know James has in his gear bag) like I did last time he was around.

James how about a front shot showing the new front leg inlets?

Quit squirming! You have been designated the inventor and no amount of denial will get you out of it. Furthermore all problems with the form that arise will be assigned to you; you will be pilloried wherever you go for that. YOU ARE the Olaf of atmonauti. Another shot of the GodFather of the Atmo demonstrating the one handed Passadetubemonauti a requirement for the Navigator D.

Oh Jimmie, I want to possess!

Its tuff being the base. Scott my hat is off to you!

I think he's still hot for you.... Everybody is hot for me! You should have seen them all staring at my backside during the flockage. I like the attention but I'm promissed to Kriss.

The part not included from the email was that I prefer Mike's Hard Lime or Lemonade. If a student brought me a girly bev like that I would charge them $800 dollars for the flirst flight course and suit rental. Still free for any real beer though.

Kudos to those that can offer free FFCs. Yes! Question: on top of all that, why do you charge beer if you don't drink beer?

I got pulled off of the nuclear PRP program 22 years ago because of a skydiving accident. This is after the commander pulled a bunch of other guys off after they got hurt during football and basketball injuries. After the ball sports injuries they threatened article 15s for any other ball sports injuries. Lucky mine wasn't. That commander ended up getting a letter of admonishment for having so many benched soldiers he couldn't man up his mission. High profile and a little bit political is all it takes.

Merci.

I like the one in the avitar for example. No need for in air shots I can't tell one big suit from the next in the air.

Hey Pierre, please put some big pictures of your stealth up.

That's ok, I'll show you the photos to bring back the visual. Homo!

I can see its got the Tony suit mod on the arm wings.

Thanks for the visual, Glen. I just threw up alittle bit after thinking I let you guys stay in my guest house. Ed we never stayed there at the same time. That should save Michele some unneeded therapy. You, you might look into some extra therapy.

Dave Patterson was at Elsinore with his stealth and with his ballast was getting good forward drive when he wanted it. I had to work to catch him with less ballast in a ghost, in a v-2 no problem. I can't tell the big suits apart at a glance and haven't flown the stealth or any of the Tony suits. You may want to pM Dave for details and impressions.

Got my tickets and I am looking forward to the weekend! Scott C. For clarification this is the weekend of 5-2,3,4 in Lodi People

I'll do the base but then I won't be able to give Kriss the pinkey. I'm not bringing Jeff but be wary flockers he wants your challenge money and he will be no push over. Pay up or shut up.

CReW goes beyond just blowing kisses.

We just have to convince the cheapos that $20 is worth their participation for the victory or the agony of defeat.

Flying with us at Lodi in May, Sara? The big walls call Sara and company away from lodi. But Jeffstein will be there and I see a fantastic speed/ distance challenge brewing. You know a little diversion from the drudgery of disciplined slot specific flock mongering. I predict it will be a good time.

Oh, he was just a pussy. Uhhhh, and my should feels fine too. Lets see, I flew every load as directed you pulled off early because your shoulder hurt!?! Really no big. Meanwhile you only drink girly luiqour drinks, no beer, no burbon, no scotch and you you condescend to call me a pussy? Shit Queer even pink Mike drinks wine I got video of it. You will never make it in CReW. Thats fact missy!

Simply amazing! I don't know Adam but Heath has what, 10,000 FF jumps? Most of the well known FF guys like Omar,Curtis from Eloy, Alchemy, the guys from what was the flyboyz all had in that neighborhood of jumps. I doubt you could be a middle of the week load organizer at some of the bigger DZs that offer it with just 500 jumps. So the claw sucked at nationals, But you are proving my point for me, why should anyone expect to pay for a 500 jump wonder? Oh and BTW I would have figured there were more of you at Zhills with coach worthy jump numbers experience than just 2 as you are the guys that do it all the time.

They didn't have "ratings" but they came up with schools. East Coast Freefly, Monkeyclaw, CK1... Last I checked, about the very same proportions of these "coaches" hold the same amount of ratings that most Wingsuit schools have. Yet, I don't hear anyone questioning the value of their instruction??? Thats because monkeyclaw ck1 and most FF coaches of value getting a single dime from someone wanting to give them a single dime have over 2000 minimum jumps in discipline and have the skills to demonstrate exactly that. Yet very few wingsuit instructors have a fraction of that experience and the vast majority of rostered wingsuit instructors actually have very poor skills in wingsuits. I bet you less than 10 people have over 2500 wingsuit specific jumps! Its ironic that anybody with little experience and poor skills demands to get paid for their time simply because they are on a factory roster on a website without having put in the time and hard work to arrive at the level they claim to offer. An individual was put on the roster without owning a suit and having precious few jumps in wingsuits, How experienced do you think he is? I can't tell you how many times I've gotten a PM from somebody that got a paid for first flight course from somebody off a factory roster that would have failed the first flight course themselves. Effectivley making that flight an expensive solo. Some of those guys have gone on to become instructors themselves and have now adopted the you must have an instructor mantra even though their instructor was an in air no show.
