sovietskee 0 #1 November 28, 2007 So, after a two month hiatus from skydiving (girlfriend, school, lack of time, lack of money etc) I finally went and did my level seven today. My altimeter had been rolling around in my bookbag and when I put it on today I noticed that the faceplate had shifted ever so slighted but I didn't think anything of it. Also, the rig which I normally jump wasn't available so I got to jump rig #13 on my 13th jump. Everything was going good tracking and what not and my i did the signal for alti check which i did, then he made me check it again, it was around 6500, so I look at him. then he did the pull signal and I got the message. He said I pulled at around 3700. When I landed it was at 2500 feet. The first question my instructor asked me when I landed was "Is your altimeter broken?" It was also my first jump out of a 182 (the otter was being loaded up for xkeys invasion). Now for the important question; How many cases of beer exactly do I owe?? Peace, and Blue skys! sovietskee Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dfairleigh11 0 #2 November 28, 2007 Hmm... ...let's be creative: 1st case: First jump in two months 2nd case: First jump with a broken altimeter 3rd case: First jump from a 182 4th case: First jump with rig #13 5th case?: First time having your instructor tell you to pull?? There.. ...5 cases. Make everyone happy and get some chips or pretzels to go with the beerOh, and congrats on passing level 7.

You've been ill advised on beer rules. No matter how many "firsts" occur on a single jump the max owed on that jump is a case. If this is the first time you've been wrong about beer rules you may owe a case yourself. Congrats, sovietskee!Owned by Remi #? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sovietskee 0 #4 November 29, 2007 hah! if it really was 5 cases, my finances would only be able to provide for either Old milwaukee or some Natural Ice so I think 1 case works in everyone's best interest. At least I've learned not to skimp on old ass used alti's no more. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
