Baksteen 84 #62 January 18, 2008 ..you made a jump on december 30, but on January 5 the thought that you haven't made a single jump that year is killing you.

airathanas 0 #65 January 21, 2008 When think prices are in terms of how many jumps it's going to cost you. You go to buy something and you think, "I can't get that. It's like 3 jumps!" When you have no idea what to do when it rains on the weekend. When you just don't care what whuffos think anymore. When you think it's crazy NOT to jump out of a perfectly good airplane.http://3ringnecklace.com/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
airtwardo 7 #66 January 21, 2008 A fat guy with a camera at the DZ comes up to you to explain that the slider is called the 'flare' and the skydivers pull down the handles to tip it up and push extra air into the parachute which makes it land softer. ...and ya answer~ "Interesting, I did not know that" ~ If you choke a Smurf, what color does it turn? ~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Baksteen 84 #69 January 22, 2008 A guy gotta work Those hieroglyphs are a METAR and TAF code, respectively. Learning how to read them is a good skill if you have to leave home at seven to egt to your DZ in any kind of decent time, but it's also a requirement for the Dutch B-licence. The first is the actual weather at Amsterdam Airport the time the METAR is generated (jan 21, 12:25 Zulu time), the second is a forecast. I'd especially call your attention to 24030g41kt meaning southwestern winds of thirty knots, gusting to 41. At ground level. Cross country, anyone?

grannyinthesky 0 #71 January 28, 2008 After the day I had, I had to post on this one. You know you're a skydiver when you drive 1000 miles (350 of them in an f**king snowstorm) rather than fly so you can use the difference between the mileage reimbursement and the actual gas costs. It make me $350 to put in my skydiving savings account, but with the crappy weather, I kept having to remind myself why I chose to drive that far.
