Fair share? Why don't the GM DZ's pay the actual cost of advertising. and what programs and training could be talking about? What do I deserve as a USPA DUE PAYING member? Please give a specific example service a non-group member dz has received from the USPA. Judy Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.

I went to the BOD a few years back because I jump at at NON GM DZ and Glenn Bangs told us that absolutely in no way will our dz EVER get an AFF certification course. Well we fought and we got it without having to pay the extra fee - maybe because I sat though the whole damn meeting and paid for our tickets and hotel. The AFF Certification Course IS FOR USPA MEMBERS. Don Yahrling made that point. He has held these courses in hotels which are not GM DZ'. and numerous other places because the a GM DZ did not have the facilities. As a non-GM dz we have alot to do with the USPA. More than most GM DZ's. We require membership and all our instructors are USPA rated. All you get as a group member is cheap advertising. Why did the individual membership fees go up and not the GM membership fees? I think the GM dz's need to start picking up the slack if they want this program around. I'm tired of paying for it.

Very common with red. My husband had a suit turn pink. Red Cordura is really bad about it. we had to tie-dye his jumpsuit to "fix" it. Judy Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.

If Buzz was elected and even if Buzz wanted to TRY and make AAD's mandatory at all DZ's he has to convince the rest of the BOD's. If elected, its not like Buzz or any other candidate by themself can change the rules. judy Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.

He is complaining because they fixed his punctuation and capitalization. Now he wants to sue the USPA because of it. It sounds like a good waste of my money. Thanks Don! His attitude will be his downfall, not the fact the USPA tried to make him look slightly intelligent. There are alot of problems with the USPA, and the only way to get them fixed is to change the BOD and get more members to vote. Its really pathetic that people would not send back their proxy last year so some of these election problems could be eliiminated. Unfortunately there aren't enough skydivers out there that care.

I used to answer the phone at the dz. The questions we get asked are really funny. Guy calls and said he needs to earn so money THIS month and wanted to become a Skydiving Instructor. I told him it takes more than a month to become an instructor and his response was that he was Ball Room Dance Instructor and doesn't that instructor rating just transfer over. After I picked myself off the floor I said no. end of conversation. What's the weirdest dz phone conversation you have had?

a couple things to think about. Eye contact - keep looking in the middle of the formation regardless of how big it is. Constant eye contact will help you match fall rate Build formations from the middle out. Fly your slot. When its break off turn 180 and LEAVE - GO AWAY - TRACK LIKE HELL Have fun and be safe. There are a bunch of other do's, but start with the basics. Judy Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.

I don't think you are too far off here. It is probably why they are pushing the alcohol. They want to become more attractive to you. I don't drink anymore - body just can't take it and I really don't like the taste. Most people are thrilled when they find out I don't drink because that makes me the designated driver. Good luck and don't take any shit from them. Judy Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.

I've been on it for about 3 years. I never had any problems. Another girl that was on it went off for a while and they tell you it can take up to 18 months to get pregnant - she was pregnant in 2 months. Judy Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.

Chaz, hope you can make it up to WTS sometime for some jumps. judy If you're up here, who's running hell? Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.

Come to the San Carlos Boogie - it is the best time. If I could only skydive one week a year - it would be in San Carlos. Judy Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.

In his defense, (he is my husband), you asked a question, and he answered it. He is not the best typist and is not used the to kindness (seriously) in a skydiving forurm.
