Iflyme 0 #26 March 2, 2001 Holy shit, FFF, you musta read a book or something! Or do you have www.farting.com stored in your favorites? Anyway, I think, when the stink is REAL ugly, the pilot should just open the door and say "get the fu@k out - NOW", and save the rest of us some grief... No, really - I'd rather be farted on than barfed on, like Carrie was... yuck . My buddie was on a ride along last weekend, and he was entertained by at least two of us! Not sure if he was impressed, though... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skySue 0 #27 March 2, 2001 Oh now, come on FFF, you stole my post didn't you??? I'm the science teacher - remember. How on Earth would anyone else know that stuff??? I didn't know about the termites - I thought cows were the big offenders, I'll use that info with my kids, thanks.......this forum is just so .......... informative...

TripleF 0 #29 March 2, 2001 Dear skysue,Please feel free to use the information in any way you see fit. Just don't be too hard on the kids when they start farting in class.

Tee 0 #30 March 2, 2001 Quote I was just going for this! Not only have I put up with numerous smells on the ride to altitude but at our Halloween Boogie, in the CASA, a jumper who had partied a bit too hard the night before and was on the first load sitting next to me hurled ALL OVER me. OMG you poor thing! I can't say it ever happened to me but we got one of the students on the in-plane video. There were 2 SL students left and the girl about to exit the C206 had to get sick. She tried to stick her head out the door but didn't get it far enough and her vomit caught the wind coming back INTO the plane. All you see on video is the poor guy sitting in the back get it all over his face and jump suit!!!! The girl still jumped as the poor guy was wiping his goggles and his face clean. Then as he was climbing out, he tried to hang from the strut and his hands were still wet from vomit and he lasted about 1/2 a scond before he flew off! AND the pilot felt it hit his neck so, needless-to-say, he got out the doggie bag and got sick himself! What a ride to altitude!Oh, and my b/f is a tandem master and a girl got sick under canopy....lets just say he was happy for his full face! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TripleF 0 #31 March 3, 2001 Billy,The tech stuff was brought to you compliments of www.fartzone.com, not to be confused with our illustrious leaders rag. I have been doing my own research and found that a can or two of Hormel chili, twenty minutes before the first call, works wonders for getting a good seat without being crowded. And ya' get to call the spot, too, cause everyone wants ya out the door NOW!! BTW, don't get the match too close to Kitty. Rocket propelled dogs can cause damage to the inside of a house.Triple F Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aviatrr 0 #32 March 3, 2001 Hey, somebody has got to pass gas on the way to altitude....it's a tradition.. Just blame it on the one guy(often seems to be a TM) that's sleeping.. Either that or the pilot.. "Hey, guys.. Ever notice how it STINKS on every load we're on?" "Yea, must be the pilot.."Oh, and if somebody puked on me....I'd toss their ass out.. If they don't get full altitude - that's their problem! The above average(way over 14)Mike Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deleted 0 #33 March 3, 2001 Why the hell do you think they call it an "in flight door"? I certainly isn't just for jumping out of, it filters the air faster if you need to crack it open on the way up!!!!As someone earlier said, some people are proud of theirs. I have met these people...the challenge comes in making THEM sick! Then you're a professional!!!;-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Danhole 0 #35 March 5, 2001 Its better to hold it until you are in freefall. Nothing like passing gas in freefall -- puts you at one with nature. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
numskull99 0 #36 March 5, 2001 Well I know that some of the other video guy's at my DZ love to fart and record it. They are back by the door so it sends it through the whole plane. It's like a feeling of accomplishment. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites flyingferret 0 #46 May 22, 2001 I am laughing my ass off reading these posts. I am so thankful to have been 'raised' at a 182 DZ full of tradition. As everyone who has been indoctrinated in the traditions of skydiving knows...farting on the way to altitude is perfectly normal. In fact many DZ locals have rating systems for quality and hangtime. However it can be taken too far. If you have the talent to release anything over a 5 (on a 10 point scale) on both quality and hangtime, it should not be repeated more than once or twice a day. Doing so simply frustrates the other passengers who usually respond with mock threats out of jealousy. It can also cause premature jump run, as AggieDave pointed out. I think I was on that load with him, although I seem to remember more than one load like that :) This post has also brought up the issue of throwing up on the plane. I consider myself to be the expert here, and you can argue if you feel you have better qualifications. After getting off sutdent status (14 jumps) until about 45 jumps...I threw up the first jump of every weekend. There was something about the adreneline that just made me anxious/queasy. I would throw up and be just fine, it never stopped me from jumping. It usually came on flight line. But a few times it came in the plane. There was one time I have on video when I was riding solo slot with a tandem in a C-182. LOL, it bothered the tandem student, and the TM told him we do that to float and fall longer. He believed it :) After a while I carried orange biohazard barf bags in my jumpsuit. And then around 50 jumps, just as sudden as it started, I quit doing it. Not sure why I ever did do it.P.S. FFF, I have that NASCAR t-shirt, but I am at work, what is the deal with the name on the suit?Malachi Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites MC208B 0 #47 May 23, 2001 Sangrio, I am so flattered that my post appeared in the Pub! Farting on the ride up is a given, now that I'm hauling the junpers, it'e even worse, since I can't get out for any fresh air! Mike Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites cvfd1399 0 #48 October 18, 2004 I wonder what the deal with this is? Is it the lower pressures or the vibration of the otter that summons up the stank, but at about 8k, and 12k there is alot of people farting lol. We havent figured out why it happens at 8k, but we guessed the releases at 12k are tandems and nervous students letting out a little FEAR! lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites davedlg 0 #49 October 18, 2004 In altutude medicne there are several kinds of altutde illness AMS: Acute Mountain Sickness HAPE - High altiude Puliminary Edima: Fluid in the lungs.
