LloydDobbler 2 #26 May 26, 2009 Quote He is an Turbine baby! The only WDI he knows is that green thing by the door that most of the time lights up at a time when he ends up back at the airport. Ha! Hey there, now, *some* of us turbine babies know how to spot. (That's what happens when you learn to jump out of one of the oldest Otters still flying.) Any of you Pepperell jumpers want to confirm that N121PM still uses the buttons at the back of the plane for communicating with the pilot to adjust the spot? (God, I hope so. Would be nice if there was still at least one Otter that required real spotting.) Signatures are the new black. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Deleting the excess now (and hoping it doesn't decide to delete twice, too). If only that 2-for-1 thing would happen when you go to buy a wingsuit... Signatures are the new black.

It did for a few months back in 02, Bird-man had a same model, same color buddy deal that nearly took down the company. Next year the deal only got you pantz.

Tongue flying a wing suit is requires a bit more than spotting. You rather call it flight planning. track1 track2 You have to have a plan from the exit to the choosen area for deployment.
