  1. Thanks Bill, I'll do just that.
  2. Well I finally got a little taste of what a high speed mal is like. This last Sunday uneventful skydive, normal breakoff, waveoff @ 3.5 normal throwout, nothing, nothing, nothing, get stood up and I see what looks like a classic baglock. Reach down for my handles then WHAM! Full inflation while in a stand (ouch). no line twists. Control check OK, nice 90 for landing This was a normal (not rushed) pack job and none of the packing bands were broken. Anyone had a similar experiance?
  3. ---- from slashdot ---- _termx23 writes "US BlackBerry users may have to find an alternative source for their email addiction after the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Washington rejected a request by Research in Motion to rehear its appeal of a patent infringement case brought by NTP, which holds a portfolio of wireless email-related patents violated by RIM." From the article: "As part of that litigation, NTP, whose only assets are wireless e-mail related patents, had been granted an injunction banning the sale of BlackBerry devices in the United States and forcing Research in Motion to stop providing e-mail services to all American customers except government account holders. While the court declined Research in Motion's request for a complete rehearing by all 12 of its judges, it did order the panel of three judges to review some aspects of NTP's patent claims." We've discussed this previously. ---- EOT ---- Mine has stopped working. Guess I'll have to get another provider
  4. students = 14kts My dropzone (Byron) has a waiver for 18kts because it's always windy. A lot of it has to do with your wing loading. at 1.8:1 you can jump in a lot stronger winds (without going backwards) than at 1:1
