  1. old hand with no jumps ?? I started again with a new jump cause I reached Carpal Tunnel and didnt feel I had anything to do with that level... scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  2. at one of the dz's we use (Bex, Switzerland), there are high voltage powerlines not far from the landing zone... And the highway just after that... and on the other side the runway... so we have to come in quite precisely... and avoid the planes which are parked scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM

  6. thanks HH for putting this forum in place. And congrats to all disabled people who are jumping. Knowing that it sometimes is soooo difficult to do with people who are not disabled... Maybe a proof that some people have stronger caracters and a great will to live their live and not just getting older. scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  7. just a simple question, any DZ close to Washington DC ?? and can they jump when GWB is in the house ? Had the same problem in Russia last year when Poutine came to St Petersburg... No plane flying in a 100km radius... scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  8. that brings us to a wingload of approx 0.42 ... which is not much. Lets hope the wind doesn't pick up while she is flying. And teach her how to fly thermals, she might beat a cross country flight record. scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM

  10. no shoe involved it is the paradox of the Emmentaler (Swiss Cheese with big holes in it) the more you have cheese, the more you have holes the more you have holes the less you have cheese so the more you have cheese, the less you have cheese scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM

  13. jumpsuits and stuff like that ??? unless you bring a model for them to copy, you might not find anything... There is no (or very few) skydiving in Thailand. 95% is military jumps. enjoy your stay there scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM

  18. usually more (much) expensive than plane... check out with balloon clubs, if anyone would drop you if you go help them every once in a while... Like that you would discover their world, be useful to them, and they would reward you with free jumps. scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
