well.... There was no way I wanted to be in the air w/that many canopies around trying to land at one time, so I opted to do CRW instead. ...and I never said it was out of 1 plane. Tongue

Well.... I don't know what to say...

Attached is a scan of my log book, and heres a clicky showing the date of the save.

Maybe we've jumped together, but it wasn't at the Thanksgiving boogie. Smile

Glitch, youre right...it wasnt the Thanksgiving boogie.
I just dug out my logbooks, it was the Easter boogie.

I was on that bigway jump also. Remember the guy flying the pink paraplane powered parachute all thru the landing area ? I will never forget that nut and his bright pink jumpsuit.'

I posted this same thing yesterday but someone deleted it.

Actually, if you zoom in, you'll see that's not Pat with one foot on the step. Pat's behind that guy (whose name is on the tip of my tongue). I took those shots.
