Proof Michele can be in a 9-way.

I -believe- that this was her largest skydive to date.

As you can see, the spot is a little bit off. Sparky (in his traditional orange) was totally correct in his spotting talents and wanted to climb out a LOT earlier, but we weren't getting a green from the pilot so I was holding him back. I think 7 out of 9 made it back.

Top of the skydive went ok despite a couple of firm docks, but those did cause a bit o' counter clockwise rotation. In the photo, Michele, in blue, -should- have ended up in the north quad as that was up line of flight, but like I said a bit ' rotation started and it just never let up. So, anyway what you're seeing in the photo is point 1.

We actually made a second point, but waves, wiggles and level issues prevented me from getting the on-level shot I really wanted.

Still, nice skydive. At the very bottom of the skydive, things kinda had to end a bit early because of some thin white puffies. Michele pulled out of the center in a nice little hole, but some of us ended up logging some actual.

Anyway, enough about the skydive. Michele is now officially a 100 jump wonder and congratulations go out to her on that dubious distiction. ;)

Seriously. Good job.

Think about what I said in the team room.

Bay hales, quade??? Bay hales. 100 way bay hales.;):)
Um....the photo?

And what is an "actual"? I've got a whole heck of a lot of learning to do...I've wracked my poor 100 jump wonder brain trying to figure that one out.

Proof Michele can be in a 12-way.


Oh good grief - who'd we leave on the plane? Or were we counting Jen and her TM in sort of a staggered exit thing with the second pass?

True dat, but I thought it was only a -9- way plus 2 cameras...;).

It was great working with, and jumping with, you this weekend!

"Actual" is pilot speak.

Pilots can fly in "simulated" instrument conditions or "actual" instrument conditions. "Simulated" is with some kind of view limiting device to simulate flying through a cloud.

Great comments...even in the Bombshelter. No doubt. I have been thinking, and will continue to do so, until I understand it in a zen kinda way. And then - watch out, world, cause here I come flying!

That is a phenomenal shot. Lotsa pink, the blue stands out, and the orange is pretty cute too. Just a great shot. Thanks. Far more the preferred one than some of the pie photos....;).

Thanks for sharing such a big milestone with me. You rock. Sorta. Can't let your head get too big...;););) (Please note the excessive and exaggerated use of winkie icons....)

Ciels-
Michele
