No comment.Another cowboy DZ. choose your part and keep getting in those airplanes.

Thank you wolfriverjoe. Plaintiff used verbal persuasion to create doubt for other operators and clients at the DZ.Another accusation? in reference to use our better judgment and UPT standard code of conduct.
-
Thank you 20kN that’s a pretty darn awesome input and advise. Standing down and using your better judgment in sketchy winds. How legally binding would be the DZO’s claim for loss in revenue?

How legally binding is the DZ wind limit tdm skydiving in court. can the set wind limit overrule BSR’s and UPT tandem instructor using his better judgment to make a safety call and stand down. DZ has a 24knot gust wind limit and calls the plane down when gusting 27knots. 5Mph to 25 gust mph and wind direction is changing 180 degrees every 5 min.But since these winds are below the DZ’s set wind limits for tdm the DZO can fire you and sue you for early independent contractor agreement termination. tdm catcher was needed but could not catch the tdm on landing since the tdm was pushed back up 15 feet in the air. No other whiteness around and all staff working that day including the pilot are not backing the TI up,rather they are lying to back up the DZO. Pilot with 300 hours landing plane in 30knot wind sheer,got to sketchy for him and he stoped flying.But now claims winds were calm that day,as the DZO had to appear in court. tdm catcher and second TI are also lying about the wind speed that day. DZ at 6000feet elevation. what to do I like to know.

You are looking for none airworthy Tandem gear? call Phoenix are skydiving.Ask for Luther Kurtz or Randy Fortner...they have lots of that crap.
-
Tandem skydiving is only experimental when the tourist tandem student is hooked up to a novice skydiver that reach the USPA/UPT minimum qualifications for tandem master.
-
Speed of a tandem??? are you kidding us even asking that!!!
-
Pros and cons are your skills of piloting a tandem parachute,simple as that.
-
Yes there is a new bridal that looks not fully cocked,but it is.
-
Full face helmet on a tandem skydive is total bullshit.
-
I need a count on full time active instructors in our sport.Week end warriors not included.Its time we stand up to have our own Play house.All those part timers and armatures are messing up our sport of skydiving.
-
Fundraiser to keep our active full time Skydive Instructors and Tandem Masters alive in well in our today’s sport of skydiving that’s on its way to hell. USPA&UPT are welcomed to fund us.
-
I need a number or count on active full time skydive instructors and tandem masters currently in the United States of America. We are building our own playhouse.
-
True to that...Burble should change his skydiving True to that,well put my friend.Burble’s should change his own skydiving skills so he doesn’t have to chase AFF students through the sky and in danger them...lmao
-
I know frosty and had the pleasure to work together for a while. One of the coolest TI around back then.Still pulled of some tandem stand up landings when he wanted to,and all the young kid TI’s had a stupid look on there faces. I heard he retired age 73 with 17.000 tandems under his belt. ”NOTHING SAD ANOUT THAT AT ALL”
-
Back strap and y-strap sure proof their point.
-
The finer points of the tandem business.182 tandem jump vs a turbine tandem jump: When is the skill level reach by an TI to jump at 8000ft exit altitude vs14500ft.exit altitude.And when will the TI start jumping with hand-cam. Considering TI has only turbine tandem jump experience.
-
Hi riggerob. A-OK that you disagree.

Safety has taken the back seat for sure at lots of DZ's. I am a full time year round instructor and my experience and stories at DZ's are true but I'm not out to start any kind of pissing contest with anyone. DZO/ chief instructor or lead tandem master of a DZ, needs to qualify the needed experience and skill level of a new employee. to many DZ's are unsupervised and do not meet our industry standards. But the current rating standards feed these DZO with a skydiver, that holds a tandem master rating under the following: 500 jumps/ three years in the sport of skydiving, coach rating and TI training are done together in a few days time to a week. Safety just took the back seat.....!
