Everyone must get a demo rating...............
I just did my first demo last night (yeah baby a night demo too). I jumped into an Olympic torch carrying ceremony with a California state flag. Flew in right as they were singing "America the Beaitiful" to a roaring crowd. F***in awesome feeling. I havn't come down yet. It was a tight landing area too and I hit the mark. If I didn't have to work today I'd still be partying my ass off.
So one more time..........Everyone get your demo rating......
I'm so thirsty for some air and some brew.

Can't count too well huh Clay? :)"OK...483 jumps.....Probably get that by the end of the month..."
Unless you just graduated student status, you don't need quite that many....
And yes, open field with a landing area greater then 50000 feet is an open air that needs just a D licence.
Open Field and Level 1, as defined by USPA and
accepted by the FAA (all of the following):
a. USPA D license or higher recommended
b. 50 jumps on the same canopy within the
past 12 months
c. five jumps within the previous 60 days

Actually, that would be a Level 2 landing area, and require a PRO rating, and various currency requirements.. I assume you meant FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND square feet, not FIFTY THOUSAND..
