So what are the requirements for an E license? If I went to OZ with my 700 jumps and no AAD would I be OK?

Not especially interesting, but cool . Sunset load, landed on the other side of the freeway because of a long spot and I got confused about where the DZ was due to low light and low experiance, I probably had about 100 jumps at that time. Anyway, I pick up my gear and head for the road. There is a family waiting there in a pickup truck (evidently they had seen me land). They offer to give me a ride back to the DZ (about 5mi). On the way back the dad opens a cooler and offers me a beer. The cool part is that the DZM was still out looking for me when I show up on my own holding a beer

I believe that someone had a line snag on the bottom of the reserve container. That is why somw mfgrs say to stow the free line at the bottom of the main container.

Wings has an option like this. I believe it's mainly used for birdman suits.

This is entirely up to the Tandem Master and it should be because they are responsible for the safety of the student/passenger.

I demo'd the Cobalt 150 and the Stilletto 150. I found the Stilletto has a shorter toggle control range. It also seemed to turn a lot faster. Openings were good on both canopys.
