You foolish boy....you ask a bunch of beer guzzlers such a question and expect an honest answer?. Take it from me, all the ones who answered yes are lying through the bottom of their empty beer glasses....

stratostar 5 #7 August 19, 2012 The question is, did you get called on it, as in "hey that your first?" Or did you broadcast that it was your first and then someone yelled ? If one of those things did happen, well then your called out on it and in the time honored tradition, you owe !!! It used to be an honor to be called out on a case, now days the younger crew is a bunch of pussy and all try skirt around the time honored tradition in many ways, pretty sad really. Now if your just a dumbass and asking if you own just cause, well then you owe for just being fool hardy enough to ask... you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

akarunway 1 #9 August 19, 2012 Quote Jumped my first sunset load today (as a S/L student). Would you consider this an event that requires a donation of beer? To myself. First sunset load. Drank a cold one under canopy at 12K. I hold it true, whate'er befall; I feel it, when I sorrow most; 'Tis better to have loved and lost Than never to have loved at all.

rifleman 70 #10 August 19, 2012 Quote The question is, did you get called on it, as in "hey that your first?" Or did you broadcast that it was your first and then someone yelled ? No to both questions - I just personally felt that it was a jump but couldn't find it listed in the rules. I also think it went unnoticed as one of the jumpers on the load was jumping his 100th If one of those things did happen, well then your called out on it and in the time honored tradition, you owe !!! It used to be an honor to be called out on a case, now days the younger crew is a bunch of pussy and all try skirt around the time honored tradition in many ways, pretty sad really. I have no problems being called on a case - if I owe it, I buy it. In fact, I'll occasionally buy a case in advance because as a student I know it's pretty likely that I'll screw up at some point and I wouldn't want people to wait for until the next time I'm there. Now if your just a dumbass and asking if you own just cause, well then you owe for just being fool hardy enough to ask...

Amyr 0 #11 August 19, 2012 Sorry You owe beer. Pre buying for expected event that have not occurred. Beer penalty. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Amyr 0 #12 August 19, 2012 But as a student we were exempt until we finished AFF. But from solo status to A license I learned to just smile and nod and not say a word. Bought a lot of beer before I learned that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

billvon 3,006 #24 August 20, 2012 Yes, that is indeed a beer-worthy event - but 9 times out of 10 you can use the "student exemption" and get away with it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
