hexadecimal 0 #26 July 25, 2005 0:5:3 Didn't get to jump Saturday... woke up late and felt like shit so I decided to stay home. Got 5 jumps in today. First solo First time screwing up my landing pattern and landing in the bean field @ SDC... (twice ). Luckily both were only about 5 feet into the beans and I stood them both up anyway. First time jumping in >100 degree heat ... nasty. Was supposed to jump with Sunshine but didn't make it on Saturday and she fled the heat before I got there today... hopefully next weekend. Finally met Jeth today, too Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Elisha 1 #27 July 25, 2005 2 solo jumps from the most ghetto cessna ever...but the DZ is only about 40 miles away.

First real CRW jump. All I can say is.... WOW! This was one of the coolest experiences of my life. Went out with a few shit hot canopy pilots who taught me a thing or two. Last night's sunset load we got a stack, a biplane and a downplane. The downplane would have worked better if Mike's shoe hadn't flown off. 900th... but I have to finish logging to see what that jump was. I just know I must have hit it this weekend.
