I got to know her fairly well during the acid mesh problem back in the 80's. We had a lot of communications back then on just what/what not to do about the problem. Then, in the 90's, I was back in NJ for work and stopped by to see her. Blue skies, girl, Jerry Baumchen 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bigfalls 111 #3 March 26, 2022 I first met Silvia when I got my riggers rating with Dave DeWolf back in 1983. She was teaching the sewing. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

faller 26 #5 March 31, 2022 How very sad, what a GREAT person, rigger, jumper and friend. We worked together for a couple of years at National Parachute. Test jumps, design refinement, PIA booths, rigging and lots of fun too. She was a truly liberated woman, long before the “activism” became fashionable. She was the “balance” in the Herd, (if that was even possible). ;( 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
