fcajump 164 #1 January 15, 2011 Anyone have any history on these guys: "Wild" Bill Haynie - Double Jumper (intentional cutaway? ) Ray Morders Eddie Butler - Instructor (any relation to Manley?) Kim Scribner Al Hines - Delayed Jumper (freefall? ) See attached. JWAlways remember that some clouds are harder than others... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wartload 0 #2 May 26, 2011 I'll have to search for it, but I have some information about Ray Morders. I believe that I posted some stuff about him here a few years back Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wartload 0 #3 June 27, 2011 I found some of my material about these guys, and others, from pre-WWII jumping in and around DC. One of their exhibition jumps had them listed in the newspaper ads as "Angels from Hell". Drop me an e-mail and I can arrange to get the info to you.
