  1. Tuna, I'll trade you your C5 for my A380! Here are some pictures of it empty and almost ready for jumping: one of the main deck, one of the upper deck, one of the aft cargo bay (there is also a forward one) and one from the window after landing looking at its 'sisters'. The only problem with a jumpship that would arguably take 1500+ jumpers on a load is that the spot will be 10 miles short for some and 10 miles long for others! But what a sight, building a 1000-way from one plane 'To fly is heaven, to freefall is divine' 'You only need 2 tools.

  2. Hello, Don! Yes, I lurk a lot and learn a lot at the same time; I will post at the right time but don't want to just spout off because I have an ENTER key... I have learned a lot more from listening than from speaking
  3. I'll second that. I try to go to the dz on Saturdays, and if the weather is bad (like today in Dallas!) I do stuff with the family and try to go Sunday (and tomorrow looks beautiful!). Other weekends it's a wash on both days; I will try to rehearse some EP's for a while and look forward to the next weekend. Most everybody is in the 99% between all or nothing; sometimes it's more. sometimes it's less. 'To fly is heaven, to freefall is divine' 'You only need 2 tools.

  4. I will second the thanks to Skydive Dallas for being a great place with good fun and discipline. I was there for the first time a couple of Friday's ago and did 3 jumps with my brand new Storm. Energetic Ernie helped with many things. Special thanks to Tom S and Nick M for taking this newb on a 12-way; what an experience! I qualified for SCR even before I knew what it was?!?!? Thanks to all at SDD and blues for 2009! 'To fly is heaven, to freefall is divine' 'You only need 2 tools. WD40 for when it doesn't move but should, and duct tape for when it moves but shouldn't'
