Ralf 0 #1 June 9, 2001 I checked by profile, where do I select if I am a NewBie or Old Hand? I noticed a jumper with a new B license listed as a Old hand, and I am listed as a Newbie. I still have lots to learn, but when I am in line for boarding the airplane, and ask for a pin check, I have had young people with over 1000 jumps not know how to check my 5 pins (two on the chest reserve and three on my backpack) and have no idea how my Capwells work. To me, PC stands for ParaCommander, not pilot chute or politically correct. Don't worry too much, I only jump my PC about two times a month. Just to remind me how nice the new equipment is, which I normally jump.Ralf StinsonC-8962 (S/L J/M and CSO (Club Safety Officer) in 1973) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PalmettoTiger 1 #2 June 9, 2001 Newbie, Old Hand, etc. isn't an indication of your status as a skydiver. It's based on how many posts you have made on these forums. 1-49 Newbie, 50-299 Enthusiast, 300-699 Old Hand, 700+ Addict, and beyond that only Sangiro knows (although Skreamer is going to blaze the trail for us)!
