All these high-falutin' names being tossed about but the one name that matters is the one that has been ignored and overlooked!

You don't need to know anything that you can't learn from the greatest sky-jumper of them all:

Wally Gubbins

Angelic

Well, then you have to include the best FJC instructor of all time...
