This one time, at Prairie...

Oh, wait, I've never been to Prairie. But I do know enough to know that what happens at Prairie stays at Prairie.

Will I see a Cyrpes fire?

Does anyone get laid at Prairie?



I can answer that! Yes. No.

(at least that's what they tell me, and they wouldn't lie, would they?)

There once was a pilot named James
Who liked lookin' at Canadian dames
They showed him their tit
Then the tent blew to bits
No more tent no more tits for poor James

If you pull at the right altitude for you, you should have reasonably clear airspace, maybe 5 or 6 landing with you, with most of the load below you and the tandems/AFF's above you. If you pull low, you may find yourself in the pattern at the same time as 10, 15, or possibly even 20 other canopies.

Quote

What is the recomended pull alti at prairie.:)



For you, 3000-3500, closer to 3500.

The runway is right next to the landing area. If there's a conflict, or the landing area is too crowded for your comfort level, you can easily land farther from the runway...it's a big open valley, and it's better to walk a hundred yards than get carried a hundred feet.

Quote

Are you going to jump with me?:o



Duh!

Quote

Are there going to a bunch of unsafe skydivers there?>:(B|



A bunch? Nah...they try to keep it reasonably safe. People doing patently unsafe things like landing opposite of everyone else in traffic will be warned once (if they're lucky) and then grounded. That said, it's usually best to assume everyone around you is trying to kill you and fly accordingly.

Do you think you can drink more beer than me??



No, I don't think that. I know it. :P:D

Possibly. I've seen a few two-outs there over the years.

It's Montana and there is livestock readily accessible in the landing area. What do you think? :D

Edit to add: You know you'll have to do a bar dive, right? You not doing a bar dive would be worse than that damn coat of your's!

Is there airtraffic besides the jump plane during the day?

Is Larry closing RSS for that weekend?

You are going to be puking your guts out trying to out drink me.:o

Is there any dumb questions I should avoid asking???

That's jump planes, and no, not much. What there is will be related somehow to the boogie, whether it's people flying in/out, or the civilian jet that Larry Hill's son had there last year (bring $, go for an e-ticket ride)

Is Larry closing RSS for that weekend?



He was going to, but now has 16 tandems scheduled for Saturday and plans on being open. I told him I'm not gonna be there, and that he's going to have a hard time importing staff that weekend.

Ah, the fearless sense of infallibility that accompanies youth. Trust me Jason, I have lots more practice than you.

No, and more importantly, you should not avoid fessing up to firsts. :ph34r:

I am going to attempt the world longest side kick and send it to my Grand master Jhoon Rhee. His lasted about 5 seconds jumping off some temple stairs in Korea. I figured mine will at least last 10 seconds.:$
