Actually I think it's older than Anti Gravity. Isn't it Travelling 3? I have 2 and 3 at home - I'll check them out when I get chance.

For couldn't, read wouldn't!

Ahem... Pin necklaces...

Jason, I notice this post is from a couple of weeks ago. Have you had any luck raising the cash? I bet you could find plenty of willing contributors among this year's Bridge Day attendees - and surely there must be people who'd be honoured to drive Jean from the airport. Any idea how much money we're talking about altogether?

Never mind the movie - did you read the plot summary on that IMDB page? It has to have been put through some sort of language translation program. Completely nonsenical but hilarious!

A ripcord fly? That guy must have been in a hurry to get his pants open!

Anybody have any idea how long pin necklaces have been worn by skydivers? They seem to me to be more popular than ever in the last couple of years, but I'm just curious to know who first had the idea and when.

Richy, Patrick Swayze also went through AFF before filming Point Break. Not sure how much of the freefall footage in the film is actually of him - but you can clearly see it is in a number of shots. not least his exit towards the end of the movie. No idea whether he stills jumps.

Your visor flipped UP while you were head DOWN? How does that work?

Some of my jump buddies apparently share your philosophy. Causes no end of funnels!

29% and increasing the lead! Keep it up!

What chance would a complete whuffo have of surviving a jump?

Don't forget that red also means emergency stop - which this person might think is pretty appropriate under the circumstances -
And I thought this was going to be a thread about the leader of your tracking dive making you land off the DZ...

Congratulations on the 1000th! Enjoy your last day or two and bring everyone back in one piece. Got a feeling you lot are going to be showing me up next weekend after all your big-way experience...
-
Go, Vicki! Even though I'm jealous that you're just on holiday, I really hope the weather gets more reliable for you guys (how's everyone else doing?) If it's any consolation, I gather Nethers was suffering with high winds over the weekend. Have you taken an 8-way off the ramp yet?

Personally I think my fridge would be better off without a light, too. There are... things... lurking at the back of there that really shouldn't be seen... Things that should have been thrown out weeks ago...

OK, that's enough US DZs : www.multimap.com works for the UK ones, so here's mine http://www.multimap.com/map/photo.cgi?client=public&X=584802&Y=143095&width=700&height=410&gride=&gridn=&srec=0&coordsys=gb&db=pc&pc=&scale=5000&out.x=8&out.y=8... and it's in colour!

So, what will YOU be doing while not being in Rantoul this year??

You mean your team doesn't have a 10pm curfew? Shame on you! -
Anyone got a shot of Tecumseh? I was over there last year and I'd love to have one for the log book.
-
Looks a bit too shiny for a jumpship. Where's all the tape holding it together?
-
...To an international phenomenon. It's certainly just as much a tradition in the UK as the US. Anybody know which other countries do and don't participate?
-
I thought 'grey wrench'. But I normally call a wrench a spanner. So I guess that is spooky...
-
But this is the UK. Two loads from now is probably this time next week
-
Yeah!! Never miss another sucker hole!

Something struck by lightning, got shocked wtf
