kmills0705 0 #1 November 4, 2009 Another post gave me the idea to see what you all do for extra altitude. Our pilots are the best... A little back rub on the way up goes a long way :) Share your secrets! Kim Mills USPA D21696 Tandem I, AFF I and Static Line I Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
normiss 818 #2 November 4, 2009 I would have guessed your "other assets" would garnish more altitude than a rub. A back one anyway. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CSpenceFLY 1 #7 November 4, 2009 I'll be honest, if I get to see boobies on the ride to altitude it really doesn't matter if we get higher or not. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skyrider 0 #9 November 4, 2009 Unfortunitly Perris and Otay are both near military bases and airports, so have strick air traffic controls, best we can get without prior waviers being filed is 1000 feet on average! But flashing has caused a few pilots to slip from time to time! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skydived19006 4 #12 November 4, 2009 Quote I'll be honest, if I get to see boobies on the ride to altitude it really doesn't matter if we get higher or not. Exactly, I like boobies a lot more than I like 6 seconds of freefall! I don't have the the power of the boobies, and I refuse to any sort of "service." What I do have is the power that comes with owning the airplane, and paying the bills. I can simply tell the pilot to go higher, though I seldom do. I will encourage those on board with their god given power to employ their assets once in a while. Boobies are like possessing a supper power.Experience is what you get when you thought you were going to get something else. AC DZ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The only time we're getting 'extra altitude' (that is, over 6k) is when the QNH is low."That formation-stuff in freefall is just fun and games but with an open parachute it's starting to sound like, you know, an extreme sport." ~mom Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
