wildfan75 1 #31 August 27, 2007 You've gotten excited when the neighboring farmer decided to plant soy beans instead of corn. When someone yells "20 minute call for Cessna Load 10" and everyone looks dumbfounded. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Derekbox 0 #32 August 27, 2007 Funny, Im in Michigan for some work, snuck out early and ran up N of Kalamazoo for a quick jump. After the last load the DZO ran off and came back with a case of PBR.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chutejump 0 #33 August 27, 2007 1. None of your tandem passengers ever weight under 250 pounds. 2. All of the students print when they fill out the release waiver (and sign with an x) 3.

chutejump 0 #35 August 27, 2007 QuoteIt isn't a national holiday? Damn, I thought I would not have classes. Oh well plans are made! No it is not a National Holiday! It is an INTERNATIONAL HOLIDAY! it is not common knowledge, but the real reason for the end of the cold war with Russia, was due to the fact that the Russians were not allowed by their government to attend! There was such an outcry from the public with riots, and car bombings that they decided that the Nuclear Arms Race was pale in comparrison to the international companionship shared at this event! It's not difficult to believe that Coed showers, Blue bottles, naked skydives, and a chicken pooper contest would quell this world problem! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You call 15-25 mph winds light and variable. That's something that is true. We go on Club trips to big California DZ's and the entire DROPZONE SHUTS DOWN when the winds hit 16.5 mph! If they hit 20 people go home. Us kansas kids are sitting there wondering why the hell people arn't jumping or why people don't pack their own rigs anymore....

Amazon 7 #42 August 28, 2007 If you like wind.. you REALLY need to go to Byron in NOR CAL..I have gone up on loads in 20 MPH plus on the ground and on opening they are over 30 MPH....the term HOOK IT FOR SAFETY comes to mind.. They have hundreds of FANS just to the west of the DZ just look for pictures... you will see what I mean..BUT there is no CORN... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wildfan75 1 #44 August 28, 2007 You consider anything over a 4 way a big way. You get excited for the extra altitude on 8 and 12 ways because the 182 formation goes to 11,000' instead of 10,000'. You've never done a 5 way. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mnskydiver688 0 #45 August 28, 2007 You need to visit Fargo with the Super Cessna! 5-ways abound and a ride to 12k takes 15 mins. You mistakenly give the pilot at a boogie corrections even though the green light is on. The crotch takes on a whole new meaning.

You call 15-25 mph winds light and variable. Many of my early accuracy landings were made going backwards. Why isn't that in the student training program? I learned early how to collapse a canopy before all of my weight was on the ground. Sometimes that run out landing is part of collapsing the canopy. -- Jason -- Some people never go crazy.

It seems every year at Freaks there is some yokel who tries to correct the pilot and ends up screwing everyone on the load up the tailpipe.
