crosscountry 0 #1 May 13, 2004 do you think $895 is a reasonable price for a 190 hornet with 25ish jumps? Thanks? Thoughts? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
diablopilot 2 #2 May 13, 2004 Yeah not bad. If I remember correctly they sold new for $1300 and sometimes could be had for a few bucks less. Why is this one being sold? Some of them had a reputation for hard openings.---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

skipro101 0 #3 May 13, 2004 I bought a brand new hornet off of call ralph for 1,150. awesome openings and great canopy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cadmium 0 #4 May 13, 2004 Hornets went for $1000 new when PISA was still manufaturing them. $750-$850 for 25ish jumps would be a good price. It is a great canopy! Most of my jumps have been on a Hornet and the new Pilot, which is a refined Hornet._________________________________________ On the Journey of Life! Want a Ride?

diablopilot 2 #7 May 13, 2004 QuoteQuite a coincidence that the span & chord dimensions match the Hornet exactly. Uh huh. And all ram airs are the same. Geeeze. When did skydiving become full of conspericy theory fanatics. It is not the same canopy. Not even close. Having flown both, I can assure you they are two different canopies.---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

cadmium 0 #8 May 14, 2004 diablopilot is correct. They are completly differnet canopies. By refined I mean they are similar in platform factor, simi eliptical. The pilot is a better design but simiar_________________________________________ On the Journey of Life! Want a Ride? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
