I sent a container to Sunpath to have the leg straps replaced on an articulated harness.... the girl slid across the runway and actually tore her leg straps... no other damage was noticed by 2 other riggers including myself... this is what i got from sunpath... inspect...........$ disassemble system components... take out reserve ......$$ (not wanted) replace reserve side flaps plastics (right and left sides) ????? ... $$$ replace harness (chest ring downwards) using new dad (hip rings) and stainless leg adaptors......$$$$ Called about this and rigger inspecting said it was because they found cadmium residue..... WHAT IS THAT??? and why do they have to replace the entire harness...... all we wanted was the leg straps replaced....... why did they need to open the reserve on an articulated harness when all we wanted was the leg straps replaced.... this is the second time i have sent a rig to them and had trumped up charges... the last rig they "had to wash because it smelled like cigarette smoke and they HAD to wash it before they could work on it...... (owner was a smoker)... more $$... So my question... what does cadmium residue do to fabric?.. and if it is bad why is the industry using it? ordinary rigger wants to know?... By the way.. spoke with my DPRE and he want to know as well... just a question The world is full of willing people, some willing to work, the rest willing to let them.

We kinda met. I was the one in the red and white suit doing tandems all day.. I really wanted to do some fun jumping but that never happened. Maybe next time you all come down I'll get some free time.... The world is full of willing people, some willing to work, the rest willing to let them.

Hell yeah!!! I don't mind landing off. I think its fun. I don't get to do it that often though. My first off landing was my 13th jump my last was just this past weekend. I chased someones main and flew all around it to get a good vector before I landed in a small field. I wouldn't mind getting into demo jumping either. Better start working on a pro-rating huh? When landing off (numerous times) i look for the back yard that's having a cook out. Always find free food there People don't mind when i land and say that "I saw you were cooking out so i thought i'd just drop in."

Thanks all for the wounderful one liners and ideas. I just gave the bitch my notice with the biggest shit eaten grin i could muster. for the first time in 12 years my boss (president of the company) didn't have a word to say to me... Once i left she closed the door to her office and I haven't heard a word from her in the last 2 hours. Damn........ I should have done this a long time ago The world is full of willing people, some willing to work, the rest willing to let them.
