there may be a few things done differently, for instance in deland you follow the first person downs landing pattern, some places may have a set pattern no matter what the winds are, such as its ALWAYS a left hand pattern. . . stuff like that, is what you need to make sure you know.

Ohh and if you get te chance try to get adam( i think thats his name) from skyventure to be your coach. That dude is an AMAZING teacher.

yea nikki wamy instructor. Carl is hilarious. And frazier is as well. Pretty much everyone at deland is top notch. If i were you id do like 10 mins in the tunnel. Since you have the money to spare it wont hurt. :). Thanatos340(on landing rounds)-- Landing procedure: Hand all the way up, Feet and Knees Together and PLF soon as you get bitch slapped by a planet.

CONGRATS!! -
yeah dude i also did my training in deland, and LOVE it there, youd be making a big mistake to pass up the opportunity to jump with the awsome instructors there. Bob is one of the coolest pilots out there as well plus how could you pass up the chance to meet skymama at her home DZ! (who ive still never met, despite hanging out there alot, i think she hates me ) and if money is no option, supplement your jumps with some tunnel time as well.

I told a cop to mind his own business. What happens next?

i wouldnt sweat it too much, his mommy probably didnt hug him enough, or he got picked on in school by the big mean kids, and now hes an asshat on a power trip with a badge and gun.

Can you expand on this? I can see how body position can give you off heading openings, but not how it affects the speed with which a canopy opens. Thanks! One example that I've experienced when I was a brand-new jumper (living proof that even a moderately loaded Spectre can spank you) is being head low on deployment. The resulting "pendulum" as your body swings back up can be somewhat more violent than a stable opening. It wasn't "break bones" violent, but I wound up with a good riser smack and was seeing stars for a couple of seconds. yeah i inadvertently looked down as a went to pitch my pilot chute and went slightly head down, needless to say it left me with some bruises and it took about a week for my balls to drop back down, i think i felt them in my throat, haha. needless to say ill NEVER do that again.

oxygen for aircraft up to 18.5 k and TSO-C64
mutumbo replied to skydivefj's topic in Safety and Training
If medical grade oxygen has moisture in it then why is it every time i go to pick up a patient on continuous o2 are they on a humidifier? As far as i know all forms of o2 that comes in a can that is meant to be breathed wheather its medical grade or SCUBA oxygen is completely dry.

Speaking from someone who was recetly in you boat... Ive got my fire certs and paramedic liscense. Sofar im on my second job as a medic and have yet to be hired as a FF. The first job is with a private medic company which just was a job to get me experience. Just today i got the call from Escambia county over in pensacola tellig me i passed everything and will be workig for them as soon as i give mycurrent place 2 weeks notice. Yeah even as a true firefighter 99% of your calls are going to he bullshit medical calls so if you dont think you can handle that kinda stuff then this isn the field for you. And yes you WILL see some very very fucked up stuff. So far in my year of training and 8 months of real work ive donne compressions on a 4 year old drowning victim, had to get an id off a 9 day old dead body locked in a trailer in the summer heat o florida and literally watched a bus of kids roll twice in my rearview mirror. But i still wouldn trade this job for the world. Sorry for the pisspoor spelling and grammar. Im typing this from my iphone which is currently hating me Thanatos340(on landing rounds)-- Landing procedure: Hand all the way up, Feet and Knees Together and PLF soon as you get bitch slapped by a planet.

the ones i really love are over the beach, or any snow covered winter shot. either of those are some of the best views i can think of, find dropzones with either of those and thats the best view in my book Thanatos340(on landing rounds)-- Landing procedure: Hand all the way up, Feet and Knees Together and PLF soon as you get bitch slapped by a planet.

lol i was just listing the ingredients involved, and where to procreate them, if someone cant figure all that out, then they dont need to be playing with said things in the first place lol. You forgot to add a good attorney to your "ingredients list". Homemade explosives tend to attract the attention of law enforcement. And that includes the BATF. Who have a history of being a tad agressive going after folks who may (or may not) have done anything they don't like. haha nah, noone suspected a thing, the gunpowder and fuse are bought together and if anyone asks just tell them you are seeing how high you can shoot an anvil. there are perks to living in western ky haha@ and all the pipe stuff is perfectly normal, noone even glances at that, haha Thanatos340(on landing rounds)-- Landing procedure: Hand all the way up, Feet and Knees Together and PLF soon as you get bitch slapped by a planet.
