skypig 0 #1 February 26, 2003 I am looking to see how many skydiving cops there are out there. If you are a cop and skydive let met know.SCR#14778 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blewaway5 0 #2 February 26, 2003 Oh, they're out there, and there are several on here. Not me, though, I tend to hang out at the other end of the spectrum with the skydiving supervillains. We all get along though, so you can hang out with us if we can hang out with you Truman Sparks for President Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skypig 0 #5 February 26, 2003 Retired counts, also reserves count. I am in the process of planning a Sept 11 memorial boogie at Skydive Spaceland, and am thinking about trying to make a formation skydive with all cops to set a record.SCR#14778 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dkpbxman 0 #6 February 26, 2003 A few years ago we tried that at the Ranch. We called it the Cop Drop. Didn't work out-too many differing skill levels and basically nobody had jumped with each other before. It's hard to control all those guys with all that testosterone flying aroud.

kmcguffee 0 #12 February 27, 2003 I'm a cop. I jump at Skydive Houston. Let me know when you are having the cop formation skydive. I haven't made it to Spaceland yet but that sounds like fun.

freeflir29 0 #16 February 27, 2003 I will be qualified as a Fed in about 3 more weeks. I still wouldn't call myself a cop though. Badge and gun not withstanding. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

freeflir29 0 #19 February 27, 2003 Quote badge + gun = cop. Dude....I am surrounded by former cops at this place. Trust me....I don't fit in. Fortunately there are a few of us ex-military and even one of my JM's from my static line/Raeford days here. At least I have a few people that I can talk to for more than 30 seconds without getting annoyed. The "Cop" attitude tends to rub me the wrong way. It seems to be vice/versa too.

freeflir29 0 #21 February 27, 2003 Quote .....now the sheep will be really nervous!!!!!! I was laughing my ass off last weekend. I was driving through the mountains and spotted several heards of sheep in a pasture. I didn't have time to stop but if I get back over there I'll post some pics. Yes....I'm quite proficient with hand cuffs now. Quote Well congratulations! Sounds like you've almost made it through the tough part. Nahh....this is the easy/stupid part. My next school is the tough one. It's the one where I DON'T spend weeks on end learning crap that has NOTHING to do with my job. I actually learn THE job. Amazing concept. It's just tough spending all this time learning stuff that I HAVE to forget in a couple weeks. I feel like I'm here for some politicians amusement. Thanks though...
