ccowden 0 #1 December 19, 2005 GTAVercetti and GiaKrembs Conrats to both of you! Thank you to everyone who submitted PMs and showed so much enthusiasm to learn! It was a very tough decision to pick the winners, and like I said before, I didn't have any real set criteria besides reading your PMs and picking people whom I thought would really appreciate this opportunity to not only better their own flying, but whom I also thought would use what they learn to give back when the opportunity presents itself in the future. What made picking so tough was the fact that there were quite a few people who fit those criteria and I believe ALL who submitted would really have appreciated the opportunity. I am sorry I could not pick everyone and please do not feel that there was any real reason that you were not chosen other than that. Thank you again to all of you who were interested! Hopefully I can fly with you in the future and do more of these days. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

brierebecca 0 #3 December 19, 2005 You are so sweet to do this, Chris. Nowadays, when coaching can cost over 80 bucks a jump, it's nice to see someone step up and give of themselves. What a nice Christmas present. We hope we see you at Skydive Atlanta soon. mua! Brie"Ive seen you hump air, hump the floor of the plane, and hump legs.
