JohnRich 4 #2 May 14, 2009 QuoteXF 15 and Raptor now with german type certification. What you talkin' 'bout, Willis? Who is JoJo? What's "XF 15"? What's "german type"? Do you mean the country of Germany, with a capital "G"? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
likestojump 3 #3 May 14, 2009 His message is quite clear. If unsure what JoJo Wings ore XF15 is - search is your friend. quit nitpicking everything people say John, most people are capable of using search, they are just lazy. Let's not encourage lazyness.

Andrewwhyte 1 #4 May 14, 2009 His message is not that clear, but then again since it is an advertisement maybe that was the plan. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
diablopilot 2 #5 May 14, 2009 JoJo Wings is a canopy manufacturer. The XF15 is a cross braced canopy design of theirs. The German Parachute Federation mandated that all mains must be classified by "type" and certified similar to reserves. http://www.jojowing.com/company/company.php---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are.

If you want to get the word out on something, you don't do it in a cryptic manner that most people won't understand, because the majority of them aren't going to bother to do research to figure it out. What you should do instead is write in a clear, concise manner that everyone can understand from the outset, without having to do individual private research. Re: Laziness. Oh, how ironic. By the initial poster being too lazy to do what I recommend, above, it requires that everyone else reading the message do more work. Therefore, the best solution is for the original message to not be done lazily, so that no one else is bothered with extra work. Diablopilot, in his message above, has had to do their explanatory work for them. They could have easily provided that basic info themselves, but chose not to. Because they were lazy? If that's the way they're going to make official company announcements, then they need a new PR man. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andrewwhyte 1 #7 May 15, 2009 Quote The German Parachute Federation mandated that all mains must be classified by "type" and certified similar to reserves. So do the major manufacturers (PD, Icarus, Aerodyne) actually pay for the testing and certification? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well then, mr_prick, obviously everyone else who didn't understand it is either a complete idiot, or shouldn't give a darn! Thanks for straightening that out for us.
