christoofar 0 #27 October 7, 2002 I picked up a 1,000+ jump wonder in Farmer McNasty's field last Saturday. I've landed on his farm twice, and I know of no one at the dropzone who HASN'T landed there. We've also had very experienced people and very inexperienced people wind up behind a convienence store and numerous other interesting places. The underlying theme is that they all selected a clear and open landing area and LANDED! Landing safely is more important than trying to make it back and biffing in a low turn. Ain't no shame in landing off the DZ, everyone does it. ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle.

Hooknswoop 19 #31 October 7, 2002 It makes my heart soar like a hawk when I hear about a former student applying their training and making good decisions. Wish they all would do that. Good job free. Hook Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TequilaGirl 0 #32 October 7, 2002 Come on Hook - you know those trees are so much more inviting than a clear field....... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fudd 0 #33 October 7, 2002 You did the right thing. Where I jump, if you have to land out north of the landing area the alternatives to forrest is marshes. It's probably the safeste place to land. Real soft, bet you could hook yourself in pretty hard and walk away. Of course it's wet, but I prefer wet feet over landing in trees anyday. There are only 10 types of people in the world. Those who understand binary, and those who don't. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rachill 0 #34 October 8, 2002 Hey.................. I remember someone waiting on the levy for you on the 4 wheeler to give you a ride back to the hanger! I couldn't get the 4 wheeler out in that field, but I did get as close to you as I could! BooYa#1 GR#50 You might be a skydiver if... Your having sex and she whispers in your ear "I've never done this before" and you yell out "Case of Beer" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks to the good people at my DZ for picking me up, that has never been a problem.(and again ) me having to walk was not the reason I was pissed. Its all good Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
