FB1609 0 #2 June 15, 2013 oh yeah, that brings back some fond memories...cheers! Almost forgot about my Wonderhog. Skydivers used to be more fun, less attitude. Man I can't believe we used to wear those cut off jeans right up to our asses. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I didn't mind Wendy P.There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence.

airtwardo 7 #4 June 15, 2013 airdvr https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=pVMYAlLfSHk That's been going around FB for a week or so, when I saw it I kinda got choked up a bit. 30 years ago...so much was different - yet so many things are still the same. Definitely a MOST interesting time to be a part of this sport! ~ If you choke a Smurf, what color does it turn? ~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

airtwardo 7 #9 June 17, 2013 I remember being at 'Snore back in the early 80's when Tom Sanders was flying around with great skill on his back filming formations... "Someday everything will 'flip' and everybody will be flying that way" I thought he was nuts...Opps, sorry Tom! ~ If you choke a Smurf, what color does it turn? ~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JerryBaumchen 1,426 #13 June 18, 2013 Hi bill, Quote a "Beech 18 Door," the round one not the cargo door - - - jumpers in French Boots, Pioneer double zipper jumpsuits, Bell Helmits, B-4 Backpaks with ParaCommanders and a T-10A Chest reserve all "behind" the door getting ready There were two types of jumpers then; those that had been injured during exiting and those that will be injured during exiting.
