jerm 0 #1 June 4, 2003 What if you had to get them all out there like this? Landing without injury is not necessarily evidence that you didn't fuck up... it just means you got away with it this time Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EricaH 0 #10 June 4, 2003 THAT looks so cool. I haven't even done that solo. Is it a Cesna? I see the step pads, but don't think I've seen any on the Cesna or Porter @ my dz. There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear. Only you can fix your fear. PMS #227 (just like the TV show) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

akaGQ 0 #12 June 4, 2003 whats even more fun is hanging by your legs. Gotta have some strength to do it but once you do its great well right til the point where the pilot dumps the wing and you come flying off...hehe- GQ ... it was the love of the air and sky and flying, the lure of adventure, the appreciation of beauty ... -Charles Lindberg Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhreeZone 20 #13 June 4, 2003 Bad TM if he's hanging there for more then a second or two... Having the drogue come out right then is bad juju Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Scared the crap out of me before going out, but when I was out on the strut, oh shit that was cool, you look down and what a view. I gotta get a picture of that sometime. And by the way...nice pic! My first tandem out of a Cessna we just jumped from the step, never heard of exiting a tandem like that. Now I have! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I gotta get a picture of that sometime. Well when i went through training, i did SL. I was fine during class until they got to the part where they told us we had to climb out of the plane and hang on the strut. I'm like, i can jump out, but i don't know about this hanging thing. I got a picture of me on my first ever SL jump hanging on the strut and i have the biggest smile on my face. ___________________________________________ meow I get a Mike hug! I get a Mike hug!

EricaH 0 #16 June 4, 2003 Sounds very exciting. But I totally get the "not sure about hangin thing". Just getting into that position could be scary - but I'm sure the view & thrill are 100% worth it. As are most scary things in life. There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear. Only you can fix your fear.

So I had to ask, "what happens if I climb out and something happens, and I slip and fall?" So they say, "well, you were going to fall anyway..." I wish I would have gotten a pic of that.
