drkramm 0 #5 November 10, 2009 there was a different type of gas leak lol so far the aff has gone great only free fall issues i had at start were my legs coming up but on my aff lv5 i had no issue's did 6 90 degree turns waved at 4.5 lv6 was the first solo exit kinda banked on the exit but got stabilized quick and did 3 360's stopped maneuvers at 5.5 would hate to fail for pulling late cause i got greedy only real issues ive been having is the landing pattern i understand how it should be done but havn't been to great at getting it done .. first un assisted flair was a lil low put i rolled it out 2nd a lil high 3rd was at a good height but i kinda landed and squatted but my butt never touched the ground... my 4th landing was in a crosswind cause of my lousy landing pattern i almost ran it out but ended up dropping the shoulder a bit and just rolling it out can't speak highly enough about the staff/people at keystone though they are all very helpful and family like ...
