More than likely on on nose wheel strut. I can look it up for you if you really want. Just give me a little more info on the model # and year. Derek

Im taking my O/Ps tommorow for my airframe... dammit I hate studying, so instead I am going to post whore (but just a little) and watch Austin Powers. ;) Ohh yeah - I am being tested in front of the FAA -Yippee. Wish me luck, Derek

And thank you Arlo (and all the other ladies) for busting you butt to help support the cause. Derek

Skydive Deland - Corona At least thats my favorite, and is what is always there when beer is bought, with Heinkein being a close second. Derek

000000000000:11:1 So I did my first hybrid, I got to fly belly, of course had another belly, a stand, 2 head downs, and a Rickster Powell on outside video. It came together nicely. But the head down's couldnt get in to well at the slow speed.... Did another one today, Mike Johnston on his belly with me this time (that was a hoot). We got stills on both of them, as soon as they come out I will try top get them scanned, post em. Did 2 absolutely georgous sunset loads, snuck a few kiss passes in on the first one *woohoo*. Tracked on the second... What else, chased a canopy/reserve bag down. Enjoyed the beer from that (congrats on the first cutaway Tamier). Met Jack (jceman), next time I see him at the DZ, Im gonna have to snag him for a sit jump (you up for that???). yeah, thats all I can remember. Im jumping again tommorow, so I need to get some sleep. *ZZZZzzzz* Derek P.S. Anyone have $50k so I can pay off my skydiving addicition errr cough cost of living expense/college loans?

Our DZ (Deland) has safely sent several big boys through AFF on converted tandem rigs... It was funny seeing Vladi (one of the biggestest AFF JMs) doing the jump without a suit wearing weights.... I also know RWS will also make rigs esp for the big boys. Derek

Skydive deland, a couple of weekends ago.... of course Im not wearing my brand new rig. Blah - hadnt been packed yet. Ill get some pics of her shortly. Im the bottle blonde by the way. We were doing a 3 way belly... but I just had to have a lil fun with them, so I docked on one of them, went into a sit and pretty much almost took him head down... he had perma grin on after that. Later Derek

hahaha nice... Hers one... Stop No Dont = No dont Stop - all sounds the same in the heat of the moment. j/k ;) derek

Im looking for a 3rd Freak bro (already have 2 local) in Deland to do a lil 4 way action. ;) Derek Who here is a FB?

Wow was it amazing too, thanks to Don for puttin it all together. Krista Happy bday - you better stop smokin - cause you know I will keep stealing your cigarettes and throwing them away. I was one of those lurkers who missed out on the first load, but making the second sunset load made it all the worth while, I made sure I got on last so I could look out of the otter door. Wow was that great. Anyways. Ohh yeah - That was my 100th. Derek P.S. Hi Tim.

What kinda beer we talkin here??? What kinda delay throw and go??? hehehe, let me drink the beers before hand, and I may bag my first B and base water landing... of course thatd mean more beer...

Let me backtrack a lil here... I just looked at Normans photos... WOW. Looks amazing. I think I will be trying to make it to that one. Ok anyone want to sponser me? Ladies? Huh huh huh?? No (I make a great man slave..)? Damn... No one?

I might go... But I dunno if i Will have license in hand by then... I just broke 100... dont know how motivated I am to get my C license tho... But i hear from a bunch of ppl (including Norman Kent) that the Keys boogy is the best. But I have to see what I can do about $$$/time. Derek

$55 (spent on soon tl be mentioned beer): 10ish:MANY New Rig (of course first jump on new rig) 1st sunrise load 1st sit dock (where I actually did the work at least) 100th jump (sunrise load - was beautiful) Yeah theres more I forgot.... So I just but alot of beer, all good shit. :) Ill try to post pics of said new rig shortly... Derek

Well I know Im a little optimistic here, but yeah, I know our club would probably sport at least 15-20 ppl for the boogy. Between that, fl colleges, that would probably put us up to 40-50. So with prearrangement of a special airplane, organized loads, some coaching, and a big party, I think we could get a draw of 100-150. Then throw in the general attendance... Ok a weekend boogy - bite me. Everything cant be perfect. ;) At any one weekend in march, 1/4 of the schools in the sountry our out... I guess I just have to play the odds there. yeah, getting specialty aircraft is definitaly going to be the obstacle. But Im trying here. But then again our DZ airplanes alone (Otter, van and by then porter) will in themselves should be a nice draw. But you know, Im trying here, every (well most) boogies started somewhere.... but on the whole reality side, thats why i dont think it would be a bad idea to tie this with another boogy.

Deland is in Central Florida, 20 minutes away from Daytona Beach (another reason in its own to come during spring break). You can fly into Daytona Beach (DAB) which is closest, or Orlando International (MCO) which is about an hour away but would probably be cheaper. There is onsite camping (lots of space), showers, a small bunkhouse, DZ resteraunt, many nearby hotels, orlando is about 45 minutes away (including the tunnel, disney, mgm, hella clubs, etc) I plan on talking to the DZO this weekend, but I wanted to more or less have my shit together before I approached him. Have to do it right the first time you know.

Hey peeps... here is a little background, I goto Embry Riddle, and school skydiving club is talking about putting together a collegiate BOOGIE... So now here is where I need your help... I would like to see this be one big badass boogie. So let me tell you what I am thinking about offering, and then you guys give me your input, criticism, etc.... So here is what I am thinking: -Date: Spring breakish March 2003, 2-3 days long -cost: registration $30ish, 16/jump for norm. loads, special planes??? -hopefully sponsered by skydive Deland -Planes: Twin Otter, Skyvan, probably a porter, then 1-2 specials, Biplane, helicopter, hot air balloon basically whatever we could get on our budget -Freefly/belly load organizing + coaching jumps -DJ/BBQ/party/fermintated beverages when the beer light comes on -high alt jumps, night jumps, seminars (canopy flight etc) -trips to tunnel with coaching So thats the basics. Would probably be open to the public, but college people would have certain perks (cheaper jumps, cheaper registration??). Having it open to the public would hopefully reinforce the #s some. I plan to send invites out to every college skydiving club. Hopefully get about 150+ people preregistered. Which should be enough to line up at least 1 special plane. I would also be more than willing to tie it in with another boogie (I know of at least one possibility already....). So yeah, that is what I have, when things start to line up more then I will get the ball rolling (talk to DZO, email possible aircraft, etc etc). I do not plan on organizing this all myself, I lack the experience, but if I could get the #s, Im sure the DZ will help me organize. So please drop me a line and thanks for your input, and ANY and ALL help is appreciated. And would you be willing to come too? It could easily be a DZ.com get together.

We had a team that did that. Deland hosted an FSL meet a few weeks back, there was a team there - "The Virgins" All freeflyers. ;) I think they were from Zhills pr sebastion or something like that. I know in one of the jumps - I *think* it went to hell so a couple of hem just flipped went dead down and started FF, hehehe was great video too (esp considering I the camera guy forgot his helmet so he HANDHELD the damn camera for the jump, almost loising it only once.). They were some cool ass peeps. Ohh yeah I think only one had an RW suit, and it was a borrowed Skydive Deland student suit. ...In The End the Darkside Shall triumph over all... Derek

I got my rig yesterday, scotch gaurded it today, amd having it rigged tommorow morning, and should be jumping it soon by early afternoon... just in time to make the big 100 ;) thanks for the info guys - Derek

Reality: If you want simple start up. No such thing. But there are simpl equick ways to make cash doing it. I suggest either 1) pose for an established site - they pay cash 2) there are services that generate "sites" where you are a member of the site, and you get a pay cut out of the revenue. 3) goto the DZ, bring a stripper pole, when the beer light comes on, shake that ass, make it a touring show, come to Deland and give me a couple free lap dances for the idea. Derek

hehehe great minds think alike....

why not make it an option for whoever creates the poll wether it be single choice or multi choice...

LONG LIVE CAT5!!!! You hear that? Thats the sound of 100's of mbs of porn being downloaded by the kid next door borrowing some of your bandwidth... *MUWAHAHA* Derek
