freeflir29 0 #1 February 18, 2002 1/2:2:0I had a decent weekend. Got to the DZ about 1245 Saturday afternoon and did two jumps. One with NWS01(Nathan) I watched him attempt to sit fly!!!! I had fun chasing him....The other one was a very nice HD with Jenn. The flower launched awesome even though I had to muscle her down to keep her level with me. Hardly any rotation!!! Got worse when I let go of her.....She threw her arms and legs out. Obviously forgetting that I outweigh her by about 80-90 lbs. So, after a short try at slowing down I trans to a sit and we geeked each other and flew around in circles till break off. What Fun!!! Didn't jump on Sunday cause the wind was howling. We even shut the plane down for a little while in the afternoon when the winds really picked up. Almost forgot!! The 1/2 number is because I ordered a Free Fly suit Sunday night so I got to have Caryn grope me for about 20 minutes taking all the measurements. She kept making me hold the tape for some of those leg measurements........"I only have 133 jumps, so I don't know shit..right?"-Clay Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skybytch 273 #2 February 18, 2002 0:2:0Fogged in Saturday morning, finally burned off about noon and I went to the dz. Did one solo working on transitions; went up to do another and Kevin and Kevin (really!) asked me in the plane if I wanted to join them and do a three way. Took a sit train off the Super Otter, then sat around and geeked each other. Loads of fun.It rained all day Sunday... figures... $15 jump weekend and the weather gods conspired against us...pull and flare,lisa--What would Scooby Doo?

skymama 37 #10 February 18, 2002 0:0:0, bummer.But, do I get any points for trying out rock climbing, and then staying out till 3 am?

AndyMan 7 #12 February 18, 2002 0:0:102No nookie, no jumps, one hell of a party.My boss gives me this invite to a party his brother in law throws every year in Indiana. I figure, what the hell, it can't be that bad.The single most interesting part of the night was discovering the girl I was hitting on was actually my bosses neice. The panick quickly dispersed when he was actually encouraging me to hit on her. Then it was just weird.There's a bunch of even more interesting stories that I'm NOT posting on the internet.Anyways, we drank until 4:00am, crashed on a sofa, managed to get home by noon the next day.This guys house was friggin huge. There must've been 35 of us at breakfast the next day. As far as I know I was the only guy that didn't crash on an actual bed._AmICQ: 5578907MSN Messenger: andrewdmetcalfe at hotmail dot com Yahoo IM: ametcalf_1999 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dutchboy 0 #20 February 19, 2002 ?:2:0I don't really keep track of the first number. I did make two jumps from the Porter yesterday, both were sits. The first just a 2-way, and the second a 5-way (at least that was the plan).The winds were howling too badly for my student pilot, but the winds were below 20 knots up in Rome, so I got in a couple of jumps.The DutchboyCFI, CFII, AGI, IGIhttp://www.philsflying.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
