Nice score there, the sleeve look real nice condition. Packing is as simple as it gets, flake it, check your wind channel, sleeve it, stow your sleeve retrainer line and then stow your lines, put in container. T-10's can be real nice ride as long as your not a fat ass and it's not worn out, I got a vintage switlik. you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo

A Lot Of Whuffos Around Here...
stratostar replied to Andy_Copland's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
My guess would be no, that is if it was a skydiving rig and not a base rig, that only leaves the bandit part in play. FYI- I'm not giving you shit about this whole deal, I do think it was wrong to do, I don;t know all the details, if the pilot was burned because of it, it's really wrong. I have done my share of bandit skydives, they all turned out ok, had they not I'm sure we would have got shit about it. you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo -

stratostar replied to Andy_Copland's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
Andy not even close to "putting the boot" to you, rather a different way of saying why you may be getting the cold shoulder on some DZ's by skydivers, I doubt you would get the same from the base crowd. And yes the other post was a joke, however I do know someone who has done that deploy, chop, redock trick, and yes they redocked. So have you been banned from any area dz's because of this high profile accident? Or are you only getting treated like shit by some? you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo -

Really, you think that's the way it is? I got news for you then..... You made choice to make a jump out of an aircraft with BASE gear, so in turn you took a shit at the skydiving dinner table, so don't be surprised that SOME skydivers treat you like the guy who took a shit at the dinner table. you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo -

It might be because some people see it as showing up for X-mas dinner and then taking a big shit on the dinner table. Do so and not many would invite you back for dinner again. you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo -

Well the thing is ya see, a person takes the time to submit by their rules the images as a proof sheet and they came back and say to you, we want # 2,5,7,8,10,15,20,23,24,26,27 and you then take more time to upload to the FTP site and all the work to make sure they are the ones requested and they look their best and after you've done all that shit 12 or 15 or even 20 times and all you ever see is one small cropped image out of the tons you sent in that they requested and yet you see tons of less then steller crap make photo finish or other large printed images.

Queen Air as jump plane

There were two planes making a number of turns over the weekend looking, nada, zero, zip.... Not surprising this time of year and the color of the canopy will make it impossible to spot from the air even going slo & low, maybe with the rotor wash from a chopper but who can afford that. Line green, neon green, all shades of green this time of year will blend right in and the ONLY way you will find it is to walk/(crawl by staying low you can see down the rows) up on top of it, or you wait about a month and the farmers will return it, I mean what is left of it. Due to how tall the corn is now canopies won't stay on top the weight will take them to the rows and the top of the corn will cover it up, even if the canopy did rest a little on top, over night the dew sets in and it will get wet and then drop to the rows. Cutaways don't disturb the fields much at all so there is no impact crater visable from the air, even all white or hot pink free bag bridles are next to impossible to see from the air, but they will sometimes lay on top, but 98% of the time they go down in the rows too. Been there, done that and have a stack of t-shirts, like I say if you want to find it you need good friends and student overalls and start working a grid. you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo

No wonder I couldn't find you on the dz, I wasn't looking in the corn, but I did hear about the loss, that sucks! The only way your going to find that is on the ground and you may even have to crawl a grid row to row till you find it, this is better done if you have more then one person, but you WILL NOT find it from the air being that color. The combine will find it in about a month or so. Let me know if your going to be able to come up this next weekend and I maybe able to help you go look. At least in the deep corn it will be some what in the shade, but the sooner you find it the better! you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo

If you have employee's and your repair shop can keep making those big bucks while your away, you can take a trip or two to Florida, I highly advise you visit the good folks @ www.skydivecity.com if you have a fav instructor you can bring your own there as well as student gear and save some bread. you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo
