chutingstar 1 #26 July 10, 2007 QuoteAnybody heard anything lately? I've been waiting like everyone else and have been jumping without an AAD for the past few months. Now it's repack time. Previous inquires got some response but the last one didn't get any. I am trying to hold out but.... Candace at Vigil USA has told me to expect the Vigil II units in dealers hands by July 30. I think the first batch is shipping from Belgium to Vigil USA July 16...shipping time from there...order fulfillment in DeLand and shipping time to dealers, etc. So late July or early August is a safe bet if all goes as planned...

brabzzz 0 #27 July 24, 2007 What is the scoop on the Vigil 2? There's dick all information (even on their site) and apparently it's already shipping. Is there an info sheet/summary of what's changed or what's new? You'd think they'd be informing people there's a new toy on the way and creating some hype - few seem to know (and therefore care...) --------------------------------------- Ex-University of Bristol Skydiving Club www.skydivebristoluni.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chutingstar 1 #28 July 24, 2007 I think this has been posted somewhere, but I can't find it in this thread. Attached is the comparison sheet between the Vigil and Vigil II. The units haven't started shipping in the U.S. yet. Hopefully within the next week... MikeChutingStar.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Check again, there is info on the HOME PAGE about it. There is a back order on the V2 so my guess is that they will start shipping to people who have already ordered them by weeks end if not next week. Depending on how many are in the batch shipped over to the USA, back orders will be filled and sent out as soon as possible. Just my guess."It's just skydiving..additional drama is not required" Some people dream about flying, I live my dream SKYMONKEY PUBLISHING Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
billvon 2,990 #30 July 25, 2007 > What is the scoop on the Vigil 2? New and improved. Saw them at PIA; they are definitely smaller. It does NOT fix the problem the Vigil has with spurious pressurization; per Jo (the owner) that will be fixed in the Vigil III. (Well, probably won't be called the Vigil III, but basically their next AAD.) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

billvon 2,990 #32 July 25, 2007 There have been a few incidents, including one in Thailand (C-130) and one in the Perris jet. Vigil is on record saying they don't think it is a problem. It's been discussed here; do a quick search. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
