  1. Alt 2's web site says the ALT 3 stops at 18000ft MSL and when you fly through that alt it will regain itself!!! jason
  2. I'm just totally guesing but isnt theere more of a pressuer build up under water than in elevation??? That being the case maybe the pressure wont be a great or as noticble go up as it is going under water.....Couldnt she go on a SPEC ride and see how she does with that...and then if that pressure doesnt botherre her...go for a tandem!! (jsut a guess maybe ) jason
  3. Thanks Quade!!........ jason
  4. Thanks for the input CRAZY........I'll work on those calculations...however I'm not worried about hitting the DZ cause I'll be leaving over it and landing wherever I end up!! (lots of open fields for miles!!!) The only concern I have is the GREAT SALT LAKE which is about 15 to 17 miles in the direction I need to go!! Cant go N,NE, or E cause of the mountains, cant go south cuase of the airforce base,(which is only 3 miles to the south), so I need to go W,SW .. anyway thatnks for the math!! jason
  5. Adds a whole new meaning as to why we drool!!!.. jason
  6. I talked to my DZO and he said they like to try and fly to the DZ but he also said it would be OK to get out over the DZ and just take off........Like I said the DIRECTION I want to go (if the uppers are going that way) is really safe.....lots of field and pastures!!! jason
  7. OK...so I ,m planning on doing my first cross country and I'm trying to estimate the distance I'll travel......Can anyone here hepl me out.....(Quade).....heres what I have so far... I fly a Hor 150 @1.2:1 WL.....assuming I have a 3:1 glide ratio, from 8000ft to 0ft agl that should give me approx 24000ft of travel (4.5 miles) if I was in NO wind with a forward speed of 20mph... now throw in a 20mph wind ...(thats what our uppers have been around lately).....and running WITH it does that approx double the distance at a 40mph run speed so it'll be approx 9 miles????? I know the direction I want to go if the winds ever go that way because there our a LOT of fields to land in .....but if I can get close to the approx DIS it would help...am I just wasting time trying to fig this out???? jason
  8. A good "cigar roll" on the end of a laid down canopy right before the "S" folds for a Pro pack will tame ANY ZP canopy no matter how slippiery!!! Best thing I learned next to pull time!! jason
  9. Hey I actually enjoy that show!!!!....I'm just waiting to find out if CLAY, JT or SKREAMER is the father of "monica's" baby!!...
  10. I know jumping here in UT at a 4500ft msl my average speed for belly is approx 126! Thats doing 2,3,4 ways! jason
  11. YEah but can you walk on water??...... jason
  12. Close your eyes skyhawk!! jason.
  13. YEAH!!!! It should just be [_] Skydiver [_] Nonskydiver .......
  14. If I was the DZO I would probably get both packer A&B togethter in a room ,find out what the hell was going on and then ground both of them for a couple weeks......and that means niether of them packing for the DZ while on suspention....Then I'd take packer A aside by myself and let him/her know that if they ever did anything like that again him/her would be gone for good!!!!! jason
  15. Ummmmmm.....On Top of OL Smokie??? jason

  20. Break off = 4000ft Pull = 2800ft HardDeck = 1800ft ...(and yes I've heard it before but it was an intentional low pull to clear form other jumpers!) jason
