Raeford DZ. Well, about two hundred yards, but that only matters if you're walking back after getting tore up from the floor up in the CML&S Hearts & Minds 2 to the Heart- 1 to the Mind- Home of the Coconut Lounge, Spa, & Artillery Range

Rule of thumb I run by is if you can land the canopy you have now in a 10m radius of your intended target 10 of 10 times and stand it up, you should be good to downsize. You don't want to get something you wouldn't feel comfortable landing off the DZ and possible in a yard (yeah, I know ultra-small canopies don't work well with this, but by the time you're ready to jump something like that, you'll know what you can do with one) JMHO Hearts & Minds 2 to the Heart- 1 to the Mind- Home of the Coconut Lounge, Spa, & Artillery Range

Green light does not mean "GO". Green light means "CLEAR TO SPOT & GO". That being said, know who you have in the first group going out. If it's a relatively inexperienced group & new to the DZ, maybe there should be an experienced jumper or instructor who should take control of the door for the exit. Who ever organizes the load should identify this before the plane ever leaves the ground (of course, if the load wasn't organized then an instructor should have no one to blame but themselves). Not everyone recieves a good block of instruction on spotting durring their FJC or following coaching (even though it is part of the A card) and many younger jumpers don't have the confidence to hold a jump run for a better spot. Then as lemmings, the whole load piles out into a bad spot (hey, spottings for the pilot or first group out, right?). Exiting the aircraft is a personal choice and responsibility. If the first one at the door don't have the experience to deal with the responsibility, it falls upon a senior jumper or instructor to take charge of the situation.
