I'm not saying I should be able to make the call as to customers gear. I am saying that if I am willing to accept the responsibility for having an Argus in my V3, then it should be on me. I'm not attempting to change the configuration of the gear, just using a product that has worked before, and possibly due to sloppy rigging, has been banned from most containers out there. When I asked UPT if they were jumping on the bandwagon, they told me that they had sent a letter to Avicom, and were giving them 24 hours to respond in a way that satisfied them. Basik even went so far as to replicate (which I would've loved to see video or pictures of) the issue and determined that a PC has enough drag to clear the loop from the cutter. On my V3 the cutter is above the freebag, below the PC. Would you prefer that every Argus equiped rig out there be taken from service, and put back in with no AAD? I'm not dropping a grand on another AAD yet, so my choices are borrow a Cypres or jump with no AAD.

I agree That makes YOU crazier. Umm... howso? I can't help being crazy...you chose it! I'm not (very) crazy, got a doctors note to prove it!

Inviting her sister. Inviting her GF. Picking up a girl at the bar to bring home to me. oh REALLY? "I may be a dirty pirate hooker...but I'm not about to go stand on the corner." iluvtofly DPH -7, TDS 578, Muff 5153, SCR 14890 I'm an asshole, and I approve this message

Or the Reflex, Teardrop classic, Viper just to name a few. The concern that John Sherman is expressing is valid and to try to dismiss it because of his container design is a bit obtuse thinking IMO. I wasn't trying to say that its not a concern, just stating (reply to -ftp-) that moving the cutters to the side flap, wouldn't make the problem go away.

I'm not angry, you just come on here bitching that you can't find the perfect woman, yet you set exact specifications as to what she must be. If that's what you want, great... but you can't possibly expect sympathy from everyone when you don't get it. You're setting the bar pretty damn high... and while I'm sure she's out there, its not like she will just fall from the sky because you're posting about your dating issues over and over again on here.

She dropped the rig off with her rigger for the week, getting line trim checked... Hopefully they agree that the risers are jacked and due for replacement. (preferably with enough time to get her a new set ordered before the weekend) As for her missing it on the packing... It would've been an easy over look, but something she will check for in the future.

+1 My paychecks pay my entire monthly bill in the first paycheck (and then some)... so the second is fully expendable. I wonder what life would be like with a BS?

Doubt it. I think it was a hard opening or a few that stretched out the front riser on one side. I figure that much differential would cause the canopy to act out of trim, account for the asymmetrical flare, and open like shit. Just making sure I'm not going crazy or anything.

He's not my type. I'm not under a size 8, wish to have children, and no B.S. And I don't go for guys. Scary Look who's talking! "I may be a dirty pirate hooker...but I'm not about to go stand on the corner." iluvtofly DPH -7, TDS 578, Muff 5153, SCR 14890 I'm an asshole, and I approve this message

A jumper at the dz has been complaining about somewhat weird openings on her Pilot, and asked me to give it a look. The lines didn't look bad, new kill line and PC installed last week. She did notice that it seemed to have an asymmetrical flare... turns out, her right rear riser is about 3/4" difference from the front. The other riser group didn't have this differential. Time for new risers? I thought so... but another (more experienced rigger) said that risers don't need to be changed, and that they have risers with over 1000 jumps on them that still work just fine.

Yup, except Racer type containers, who's pins are located on the backpad. Guess who makes the Racer? "I may be a dirty pirate hooker...but I'm not about to go stand on the corner." iluvtofly DPH -7, TDS 578, Muff 5153, SCR 14890 I'm an asshole, and I approve this message
