You don't want to be compared to them, you created a business to compete with them, and yet you continue to partner with them? You know who they are, you know what they have done and continue to do. You know their business model has depended on lying to your customers. You know what they are doing is wrong because you know they lost a massive lawsuit. You know that what they're doing is criminal behavior and they will probably end up in prison some day. And you continue to be their partner in business and crime? If proskydiving can outdo them, PROVE IT. Dave My thoughts exactly. Chicagoland has been and continues to be a SKYRIDE PARTNER plain and simple. Tough to put yourself out there as an honest businessman when you choose to be in business with Skyride. I wonder if these Skyride partnered dropzones would still think the affiliation is worth it if they were named as co-defendents in the court cases and had to start shelling out legal fees to defend themselves.

Well, Mr Chicagoland, We're waiting. Finally someone addresses the elephant in the room

If I didn't rob that bank my competitor was going to. So I HAD to! Those DZO's taking certs. are choosing to be involved in the SR operation pure and simple. -
Opie, the question was related to the fact that there are extra fins on the tail, I was asking why they put floats on the aircraft they use for parachuting. But I shouldn't spend more time to explain these subtle aerodynamic things, I mean you have lots of jumps so you probably know more than anybody else. It's always amazing to see how aerodynamics is such a widespread and enjoyable hobby You wrote "why they use floats sometimes on that plane?" and I'll stand by my answer to that. Quit being such a sky god I changed my jump numbers, does that help

Well since everyone told me the sky was falling I fired up my firefox again yesterday, upgraded to the latest version and added some of those ad blocker thingys. I've been using it for a day now and have to say, Damn... fast, fast, fast, and less annoying advertising!!! I was running the latest IE and it's popup blocker but the FF ad blocking is awesome. Couple things I haven't figured out though is the font size seems to small for my liking and I can zoom but it doesn't stay at the zoomed setting when switching pages???? anyone? Also in the dropdown for the address bar it has like 10 random sites from years ago and recently, how do I clear those out??? Already did "clear private data" and history but those don't go away????? Once again the biggest improvement is SPEED and less ad's

Zipp Fizz is an energy drink, not a sports drink, or a drink you take to stay hydrated. Torch hydrate is another product I know of that would work as a substitute, but again, not as cheap as just watering down some gatorade. They market it as both and I did throw in the discalaimer about the caffeine. But, it is sugar fee and has the electrolytes, potassium and vitamins. Zipp Fizz is the bomb for HANGOVERS
