tfasbend 0 #1 April 24, 2006 Hi - my name is Thomas, I'm a German living in Moscow for the last 14 years. A guy from our embassy, skydive trainer himself, got me hooked up with this sport. Yesterday I did my first intro tandem and immediately booked a licensing course. At Kolomna Aerograd DZ outside Moscow. Only thing, I am already 49 but physically still fit. Anybody out there who started that late in life, or even later? What's the usual age ceiling for regular skydivers? If any..

Inthebuff 0 #3 April 25, 2006 Good for you. You are as old as you feel. I started skydiving last July at the tender age of 39 & 9 months. Waited all my life for it and it'schanged my life for ever. I plan to do 4000 skydives by the time I'm 60. Go for it.*********************************** Fly Like Zie Eagle, Not Like Zie Chicken ! Good advice from an instructor I know.
