DBCOOPER 5 #36 March 18, 2013 I particulary enjoyed the "I was following the cut away down when I lost sight of it and it ended up in my lines and I had to cut away" visual from above...Replying to: Re: Stall On Jump Run Emergency Procedure? by billvon If the plane is unrecoverable then exiting is a very very good idea.

skymama 37 #37 March 18, 2013 It was great meeting you too and seeing your smiling face after a jump. So glad you had a good time!

Even I didn't see that many cut-aways at the '97 WFFC in Quincy, even though I saw 2 fatalities and a near 3rd.

BillyVance 34 #44 March 19, 2013 Quote Cool??? I thought it was entirely stupid. I agree. I should know. I did it once years ago. Chased and caught a cut-away main on my foot up high during a CRW jump and it put my main in a downplane until I was able to reel the cutaway in between my legs. If I did that under 2000 feet I'd be DEAD.

FallingTiger 0 #46 March 22, 2013 I don't know if KeithBar is on Facebook, but I do know he's on here. So Keith (and everyone else), here's the raft dive from this year: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LTFeDGGcGyU&feature=youtu.be For the background on it: Tom organized it, and he carried it out with myself, Ray, Mike, Keith, and Anthony. Mariah and Billy were in the raft. Planned break off was 7,000', and we managed to hold it till just under 8,000'. It was a little (lot) ugly but definitely one hell of a good time!

I had a "WTF did I get myself into" moment, and then realized it was safe enough to sit up and look around. Watching the video today, I thought I was gonna die from laughing too hard.
