Why would any TI CHIT if this happened?? Of course this is Bill Booth with Connie Simpson and Ted Strong with (I can't recall her name). Probably 1983 before either of them put drouges on the tandem rigs. I think it's over DeLand but I might be mistaken.Most of the things worth doing in the world had been declared impossilbe before they were done.

howardwhite 6 #8 July 9, 2008 Quoteand Ted Strong with (I can't recall her name). Possibly Gloria Chace Mabry. Ted gave a talk at the Pioneers reunion in Utah a couple of weeks ago on early tandem jumping and mentioned her as an early passenger (she was in the audience.)

howardwhite 6 #17 July 10, 2008 QuoteI'm thinking Mary Jobe. You're prolly right. I sent the picture to Ted. Here's part of his answer: "It was 1984, maybe ‘85 in Deland. My passenger’s first name was Mary, I don’t remember her last name.She was a skydiver and fearless. We must have been humming at least 170+ mph. "It took us three day/tries to get the picture. We were weathered out the other days. Once we got in the air it was on our first jump. We called it a 2 X 2. Norm Kent took it." HW Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
