But they can see jumpers on radar given the right circumstances.Chris Schindler www.diverdriver.com ATP/D-19012 FB #4125 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vonSanta 0 #7 September 24, 2003 Heh I go to a DZ that on a combined military/civilian field. It's rather neat coz the fighter pilots know we're there and whenever they're doing some air showing they always buzz us and fly right over our hangars :) And I've come to the conclusion that they're pretty nice people. At least the Canadian visiting fighter pilots. Did the signalling with the legs thing to show 'em I'd seen 'em and got a salute in return (I think, could be the finger too, was kinda distant). Planes with burners doing low passes over year head are cool. They'll wake ya right up.

GARYC24 3 #11 September 24, 2003 I remember a team "Pieces of Eight" a big way was picked up on radar a long time ago. Their group of really good, fun guys with various prosthetic arms, legs, etc. Been aroud along time, I have jumped with 1 or 3 of them! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
