wmw999 2,148 #2 May 23, 2011 I've got over 2000 jumps, and it's been too windy for me to jump for much of the last 4 months. I'd just about trade you , because it might mean that we got some rain (we really, really need rain here, too). Wendy P. There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence.

Of course I know Wendy knows this but I will say it for others: It's better to be on the ground wishing you were in the air than to be in the air wishing you were on the ground. All new skydivers/aviators lust to be in the sky as much as they can (been there, done that). But once people gain some experience they realize there will always be another day to get your fix. Enjoy the skies when you can, but don't ever take to the skies in questionable weather. It could be your demise.

I want that A stamped in my log book so BAD!!! When I lived in the northeast, it seemed as though 310 out of 365 days came with shitty weather. Always gray skies with water coming down in some form or another, be it frozen or liquid. I could only take it about 6 years and moved. The weather there was for the birds.

gearless_chris 1 #9 May 23, 2011 Yes. We will see the sun Monday through Friday at 2:00."If it wasn't easy stupid people couldn't do it", Duane. My momma said I could be anything I wanted when I grew up, so I became an a$$hole. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
