do I detect a note of sarcasm, if the cyclist's OPINION is also a clearly established FACT, would you concede that it's not endangering anyone but the person on the bike? If a tree falls in the forest..........

Sorry can't answer because I would have to be in and that just leave 2 more. My list is much longer than two so for the sake of not offending any list members I will have to refrain from answering But could I do a different threeway everyday???

I get your point here. I think what the others are trying to point out is that alot of others companies wouldn't have made(even thought they should as you state) it right and that moves PD up to one on the top companies in the sport. -
So are those dose instructions strick, or just a rough guideline

I see no way that a person can guarantee they aren't endangering someone else that might also have decided to go out into the country. It's just rationalization for people that are too lazy or petulant or unskilled enough to join a racing club/team. What's wrong with racing on controlled courses and leaving public roads to those that obey the law? (we're not talking about going 70 in a 60, we're talking about asshats going 120+ just because they feel like it. Well on a flat out 10 mile stretch with no intersections and no one in sight. I say blast it up to 140 if you choose to accept the danger you put yourself in. I guess you don't think those conditions ever exist?

easier to just jump on a knife at home in the bathtub. That way you don't ruin a perfectly good motorcycle. You only dirty a knife which can be washed. Where is the fun in that someone else can enjoy to motorcycle. But that's ok, I don't really have any opinions on the subject of idiots blatantly breaking the law in order to put others in danger due to their own recklessness () If they were adults, they'd go and get trained and race in a professional environment. This is pure hackery for those that are too lazy to do it right. See the bold type-- So if he/she chooses to accept the risk and isn't endangering anyone else whats the problem??

I'll throw a plug in here for PD as well and I haven't even been jumping PD mains for several years. They are one of the top notch companies in the industry with great customer service! To make a long story short, several years ago they went out of their way to help me sort out a problem I was having with a dealer I had ordered a pd canopy from. Thanks again pd! -

What are your thoughts on Pilatus Porter aircraft?
Opie replied to McDirt's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
I thought that might be a safe assumption to make since they are being marketed and delivered from the factory with a jump door in place -

Ego and yes spots were great, landing area is great, stayed at the Raddison with most of the group but hardly spent any time there, being close to Carlos & Charlies is nice so you don't have far to travel with your gear everyday. Generally a great time and great weather!
