skydivermom 0 #2 August 14, 2006 One of the coolest skydiving related quotes came from an instructor during my student days. We were checking out a potential site for our new dz and some of the guys got permission to jump into it. Anyway, we were talking to some of the neighbors and one of them made the tired old comment about "jumping from a perfectly god airplane". To which my instructor replied "when we find one we'll stay in it".Mrs. WaltAppel All things work together for good to them that love God...Romans 8:28 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
