NickB 0 #51 October 25, 2004 Just out of curiousity, what container size did you purchase? I assume you ordered an I6. If that is the case, both canopies you chose are the max size you can fit into that container and it should be tight, but should still be able to fit. Please contact me directly as I will do everything I can do get this problem sorted out for you.

Vallerina 2 #52 October 25, 2004 My Icon and Smart Reserve are so gorgeous, and I can't wait to jump them! My only comments so far are great customer service for putting up with my shit! Everything was in by the estimated time of arrival that they gave me upon ordering. I can't really comment on the rig yet since I haven't jumped it.... Oh...and the salesmen are hot!

Fab 0 #53 October 25, 2004 I have ordered an Aerodyne icon+pilot+smart also... :) How's Aerodyne doing on delivery times? How long did you have to wait Vallerina? _______________________________________ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Malta_Dog 0 #54 October 26, 2004 Hehe I've ordered the same setup: Icon I6 + Pilot 188 + Smart 190. Icon and Pilot are completely black. I can't wait to jump my own rig (and to lose some lbs of body fat trying to pack it...). All your dropzone are belong to us!!!!111! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
John4455 0 #55 October 26, 2004 I am waiting for my new Aerodyne complete rig also. Its been about 6-7 weeks now. I am starting to see more and more Icons and Pilots around the dropzone. The Icon is really a great looking container, and everybody that has bought one really loves the Pilot. I can't wait to fly mine. How do ya like it Johnny?

Fab 0 #56 October 26, 2004 Just got a mail that due to a shortage of royal blue fabrics at Aerodyne I will probably have to wait a few weeks longer then normal for my rig...or I have to choose different colors....Damn...now I'm unhappy _______________________________________ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
John4455 0 #57 October 26, 2004 Is the royal blue on the canopy or the container? How do ya like it Johnny? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fab 0 #58 October 26, 2004 I assume they were talking about the canopy as I only have royal blue logo's on my container..the rest is black. My canopy is all royal blue with one bar neon yellow and one bar navy blue.. _______________________________________ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tbrown 26 #59 October 27, 2004 I just got a 210 Pilot, which I load at about 1.2. Compared to my Spectre, I'd say the opening is as nice, but not as long. Kind of a "majestic mush" that's easy on the body. I love the way it flies with a long flat glide. And I've had harder landings getting out of bed in the morning. I think the Smart looks like a really good reserve and would probably buy one if I were in the market for a new reserve. But my PD193 is just fine and I have to work for a living, so I'll be keeping it and my Javelin for years to come. I think it's great to see a company offer some real quality competition on the market, which will keep PD (a company I hold in the highest respect) sharp as well.

Evelyn 0 #60 October 27, 2004 I just got my new gear. A 150 Pilot canopy, wing loading 1:1. Put 7 jumps on it this weekend and every landing was great. I've never had so many good landings in a row, and I had been demoing the Pilot 150, maybe it was just the difference between demo gear and a brand new canopy, or the fact that I didn't want to get my new, own gear dirty. Whatever, I love my new Pilot canopy! BTW, got smart reserve, but haven't used it yet .

NickB 0 #62 October 27, 2004 The delay on royal blue is with the Zero-P fabric. We still have the royal blue in cordura and parapack. I would like to apologize for the inconvenience. If you decide to go ahead with the colors and your container and reserve get there before your main, please have them packed up and contact me to see if i can get you a demo. Thank you for your patience.
