tooueay 0 #1 June 4, 2002 I'm a newbie obviously. I've got 14 jumps under my belt (9 freefall). I'm also the main pilot at the DZ. The guys are giving me a hard time about beer buying. When do you have to buy a case of beer? They say my initial 3 way (which was a failed 4 way on my 14th jump last Sunday) is a case of beer. Is there a listing for when to buy cases of beer? Also, what am I...a pilot or skydiver? If a pilot jumps out of the plane, does it make a sound??? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tooueay 0 #5 June 4, 2002 Those thirsty bastages! I knew something smelled fishy about a failed 4 way being a case of beer (especially since I wasn't the one that goofed!). Just remember, not that I know how to jump, I won't hesitate to leave the plane if somebody becomes obnoxious or a bit too odorous. Thanks for the "Beer Rules"!

Cornholio 0 #6 June 4, 2002 >>Beer rules HERE.Quote7. If more than one first is accomplished on a single jump, only one case of beer is required.Shit, I didn't know that. I am happy to know that my number of cases owed (I think it's up to 10 now) has been dramatically reduced to 3 or 4. whew...__________________________________________If first you don't succeed....skydiving is not for you.

SatchFan 0 #7 June 4, 2002 As a new jumper myself, I have found I pretty much have to buy beer when I am told to."Death smiles upon everybody, all a man can do is smile back" ~Jason Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
