NWFlyer 2 #2 July 18, 2006 So you're saying that I should avoid jumping out of planes that you've jumped before? Noted. Thanks.

Lindercles 0 #7 July 18, 2006 Well, admittedly I haven't jumped from a whole hell of a lot of different aircraft, but it's definitely somewhere more than 10 and to my knowledge only one of them has crashed and burned. And for the record, it didn't crash and burn until all of the jumpers were out, so I'd say you're probably ok. And anyone who recently jumped the PAC at Skyfest has already unknowingly jumped one of my apparently cursed planes and they all seem to be ok. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So far I've shared a plane with two of the people that have replied to this thread (Aggiedave and Josheezammit) and they seem to be ok, too. Well, physically anyway.

Skyfish1 0 #20 July 18, 2006 Happy Skburthday! My first jump was out of the old beach 18 at the old old hinkley. Before we borded someone said to the pilot "hey, your engine is leaking oil" The pilot said "well that's the thing with these old round engines... If they ain't leakin' there's something wrong with em!" The other guy then said "well in that case... there's something wrong with the other engine!" Happy B-day and many many more. B.
