  1. Air to air footage of the 2nd jump is just great , it is nice to see Vampire flown with straight knees on full glide, usually on the flocking videos you see only falling with knees bent
  2. I don't know what is the fastest, but I think the Vampire is pretty fast...but I have been flying only GTi and Vampire. Two weeks ago I got 58 km/h vertical average while flying faster horizontally than our Cessna 206 on jump run. I left the plane early on the jump run and I was flying straight along the jump run, CRW jumpers who jumped one minute later told me after the jump that I was clearly overtaking the jump plane. Cessna was flying 80 kts indicated on the jump run. So the glide ratio for the whole jump was over 1:2.6 (probably closer to 1:3, but I don't know how much faster than the Cessna I was flying) And I know that I am not able to fly the Vampire to its full potential yet... It is so much speed and glide
  3. Here is my first (beer!) lower altitude jump, 50 sec from 5500 ft, opening 2000 ft... I first flew 30 seconds to plane direction, and then made 180 turn back to DZ direction...this time I got quite smooth ProTrack graph..increase in vertical speed during the turn is clearly visible after 30 seconds...
  4. Relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Fast pick-up service after outlanding:) As I made one outlanding approx. 2 km away from the airfield after some strange navigation with wingsuit in cloudy weather...Beer! Lovely bunkhouse and very comfortable hangar... Thanks for everybody!
