3 really weird landings. None of them stand up of course. On one of them I was way far out and barely made it back to the landing area to make a crosswind landing. Next one I landed in the briar patch. Then on my third one I landed in the gravel parking lot. Yeah thanks Jim for the great radio help. :S

Made AFF 2 and 3 jump Thursday. Got skipped to level 5 and did it Friday. Had to go back and repeat level 5 today and ended up repeating it 2 more times before I finally passed on the the fourth try.

Can't wait to do levels 6 and 7 and graduate AFF!
I'm so funny I crack my head open!

size of wings sewn into my suit....slowed my fat-a** down from 135 to 117...it's a lot easier to fly when you're not riding the beach ball.

beer owed for first multiple-plane formation load....an 8-way. ;)

Big surprise here...no jumps for me. But looks like i'll be back in the air in about 2 weeks. I did have a fun weekend. I kept getting confused about what time zone i was in...glad to finally have that figured out. :D

Tons of tandems out for the first shorts-weather weekend we've had and the turbine isn't here yet, so the fun jumpers got the short end of the stick this weekend. On the DZ from noon until sunset and I only got on two loads. No big deal though, the tandems pay the bills and the Caravan shows up Monday.

Spent a pleasant day at Deland Saturday and made a great 4-way hybrid with some old Flagler friends. A very pleasant day indeed.

Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money.

Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them?

1 pond that is calling my name:5:Do I really have to pay that many?

Had a great time at a new DZ this weekend. Winds were screaming yesterday so I was happy with a Birdman solo and a hop an pop. Today dawned to a throw together 4 way with a most exciting landing area, and 2 more Birdman jumps. Taught Tony to fly a BM suit and took him out. Natural right out the door and he tore it up. Him in my Classic2 and me in my S3 proved to be a good match once we figured things out on the second jump. I was shown a pond that is calling my name this summer. The Cypres is getting pulled and I'm getting wet! *drooooool* Fountian swooping *drooooooool* See everyone again next week!

Beer for new DZ, new plane for me (Cessna 185), brought a new bird into the flock, setting pattern on off DZ landing on 3rd jump at the DZ, and a few other things too... B|

Not a real exciting weekend here, winds were about 30 mph, but being a young dumb kid I made two jumps - one great ff jump with some buddies and then a Mock Coach Evaluation Dive with BCH7773; I Fail my category f. [:/]

One kick ass weekend for me!!!!

10:5:0

10 lbs of lead to keep up with the big boys....after loosing 30 lbs...:S and still was floaty. Hoping new suit with a hell of a lot less material will help too. Fingers crossed it makes it this week.....

5 kick ass jumps on Sat...weather was perfect, 86 and no wind = fast landings :D Jumps ranged from a 4 -way thru a 16 way....and all jumps we did a minimum of 2 points.....the 4 way I think we got 6 (with blocks) and the 7 way i think we got 4...i cant remember.....The 11, 13 and 16 way were very complicated and fun dives...lots of movement. On the 16 way everyone had to move somewhere on every point...we damn near had the 3rd and final point on that one!!!!

It was a good weekend!!!!:)

I love getting unexpected $$ :P
