homer 0 #26 December 12, 2006 Seeing as this is a 100-way and the last planned record attempts, I don't think finding a 100 plus jumpers will be a problem. Everyone who has an ounce of talent will be trying out for the team. I know I'll be trying out as soon as I get another 3/4 of an ounce of talent.

plastic 0 #28 December 13, 2006 That is a strange but maybe misguided assumption that everybody who has an "ounce of talent" will be trying out for this. Some people may not have the time or money to do this, some may just not want to, it does not mean that they dont have any talent. Sure a lot of people will want to have a go at the record including maybe some that dont have the skills or experience yet. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

plastic 0 #30 December 14, 2006 Maybe i did not word that very well. I wont be there, it does not mean that i do not have any talent, i dont have the time, money or inclination. My spare time and money is devoted to team training and has been for most of my crw career. However should anybody wish to assume that i won't be there because i am not good enough then so be it, i can live with that. However i do wish the team all the best and i do genuinely hope it works, as i do know quite a few people who will be on this. Plus the pictures do look good...

I certainly hope that my reply was not taken by anyone, especially you, as a judgement of CRW ability. It was not. What I meant was that I hope that a lot of people who were not involved with the previous records will come to the camps and try out. A lot of my CRW carreer has consisted of trying things that I was either unqualified for or unproven. Sometimes that has worked out and sometimes not. I've always felt that "pushing the envelope" of one's ability is the best way to increase it. Kevin K._____________________________________ Dude, you are so awesome... Can I be on your ash jump ?

sabre1700 0 #34 December 23, 2006 Ahh, But those damn Europeans keep raising the bar. Here is the 85-Way compared to the new A380, and as you can see we have a ways to go. We're going to need at least a 121 way to beat them, and that's assuming they don't go ahead with the A380-900 stretch model. Of course, it's not really a fair competition, since they're still getting government subsidies. :) Blue skies, and let's hope we don't have as much trouble building ours as they had with the 380 .
