LouDiamond 1 #28 April 3, 2007 QuoteSome hang-glider pilots use whistles. When I was in the 82nd it was common practice to carry a rock in your cargo pocket for those closer than comfortable moments that could be encountered on mass tactical drops. I do like the whistle idea but could you imagine how many whistles you'd hear as people were attempting to land on any given weekend?"It's just skydiving..additional drama is not required" Some people dream about flying, I live my dream SKYMONKEY PUBLISHING Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
