solodude59 0 #1 April 9, 2011 Hello all. Started my AFF in october before i deployed, i just never thought about posting before now. got up to level 5 at gold coast skydivers in lumberton, ms. i have to say that its a great dropzone in my limited opinion, and i will definitely continue to trek 4 hours each way to jump there haha. just finished buying my rig, and i cant wait to get back and fly my new mirage g4. any opinions on a 1.0 WL pilot 210 for my 6th jump? open to suggestions, might jump a navigator 240 for the remainder of my AFF to ease back into canopy flight since im quite non-current now.In freefall, you have the rest of your life to figure out what's wrong. -Joe, AFF Instructor Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Have fun I actually plan on heading down to the orlando area to hit up the windtunnel once I get back and get a few more jumps under my belt. Trying to continue to develop my current skills.... ANNNND theres a girl down there haha. Quote Welcome to the forums! hello skymama! ive read a few of your other posts as Ive been browsing these forums for a few months since I arrived in afghanistan. nothing but time to read on my limited time off .

solodude59 0 #7 April 13, 2011 Well, I came up with a compromise with him. I'm getting a loaner canopy for around 30 jumps or until he's confident in my pilot abilities. Still get to jump my mirage!In freefall, you have the rest of your life to figure out what's wrong. -Joe, AFF Instructor Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
