Can't Post
Hi all! I'm in the process of getting myself together to start making jumps of my own this year after working as a ground support person for several years... eep! Can't wait!
Hi! Maintenance mostly, and tired of watching everyone else go up and come back down with huge smiles.
I did balloon chasing for a few summers when I was a teenager, graduated into a part-time clerical job at a local airfield that did small props and gliders, managed to convince the mechanic that even though I was "just a girl" I knew one side of the wrench from another, so helped out around the shop.. Life is short though, and its something I need to do, you know? :)

Hmmm... Hiring an airplane mechanic with a parachute is kind of like eating at a restaurant with a skinny chef, buying something from a rich salesman, or getting representation from a penniless lawyer.
What have you been doing as far as "ground support"? Do you work in manifest somewhere? If so, give your dz props!
