I've seen that, and I don't think that this ebay product is one of those..

Found this i haven't heard of any of these "certifications" and how can you have F111 and zero-p all in the same material? Isn't that 2 different materials? Sounds (and looks) like crap to me.. ----- Emergency can strike at any time. Will you be prepared? Ships carry life boats... Buildings carry??? An affordable emergency escape parachute is now available. While others are blocking the stairway, you will have other means of escape. Intended for skyrise buildings. The Executive-Chute canopy cloth is F111 "zero porosity" rip stop nylon. The skirt is reinforces with 1" mil spec. nylon tape neatly wrapped and stitched with a precision four-needle machine.The attachment loop is covered with a Teflon sheath, to protect it from dangerous friction which may occur during deployment. High quality standards and materials enable this device to stay in working order for many years.The chute has been tested from as low as 125 feet. The deceleration and landing results were very acceptable, and survivable. This canopy holds the following certifications : UAV, AFNOR, DHV, SHV.

The wingloading of a Birdman suit is just like the wingloading of any other aircraft or parachute. Less weight under the same wing size and shape will enable you to decend slower. That said, wingloading is not the primary factor in distance. As a matter of fact, with a fixed-wing aircraft and ONLY changing the wingloading, the glide distace remains unchanged -- only the rate of decent down the glide slope changes. Flying a wingsuit however is far more variable than a fix-wing aircraft. Further, I do not believe that the slowest decent rate will necessarily give you the farthest distance except with a fairly strong tail wind. So, it really depends on what your goal in Birdman flight is. If it is to cheat gravity as much as possible and extend you time aloft, that's one thing, but if it's to eek the most efficiency out of the potential energy you have and go the farthest distance, that's something else entirely. I believe you are correct in your statement about the slowest descent rate and furthest distance traveled.. they are two totally different aspects of birdman, furthermore the "30's and 40's" that you hear are not SUSTAINED they are peak. My average descent rate is 55 - 60 on a GTI and no telling on the newer SF3. You can really get into the suit and get it hauling butt but your descent rate wont necessarily be in the 30s.. Kevin

So according to grant he should be rcving the dvds any day now (he said late this week) which means next week we should have them? Could it be true?

http://www.cnn.com/2003/US/West/04/15/rodney.king.ap/index.html RIALTO, California (AP) -- Rodney King, whose videotaped beating led to the deadly 1992 riots in Los Angeles, was hospitalized with a broken pelvis after he lost control of his sport utility vehicle while weaving through traffic at 100 mph and crashed into a house, police said. King, 39, was spotted Sunday by a police officer who said King was speeding and weaving through traffic in his 2003 Ford Expedition when he slammed into a utility pole, a chain-link fence and then the home, police said. No one in the home was injured. King was in fair condition Monday afternoon, hospital spokesman Jorge Valencia said. His condition was not available Tuesday as hospital officials did not answer phone calls. Police said they suspect that King was intoxicated, and a blood sample was drawn to determine his blood-alcohol level. Test results have not yet been released. King was not arrested, but a report detailing the crash circumstances will be submitted to prosecutors, police Lt. Kathy Thompson said. King, who is black, was chased by police through the San Fernando Valley in 1991 and was captured on videotape being beaten by four white officers. After their acquittal, riots broke out and lasted for four days, leaving 55 dead and more than 2,000 injured. The mayhem caused $1 billion in property damage. King later received a $3.8 million settlement from the city of Los Angeles in 1994. He was convicted of spouse abuse in 1999 in San Bernardino County and was sentenced to 90 days in jail and four years' probation. King pleaded no contest to three counts of being under the influence of PCP and a count of indecent exposure in October 2001. A judge gave King a year in a drug treatment center even though a prosecutor argued King should spend a year in county jail. Rialto, where King lives, is 53 miles east of Los Angeles.
