flyangel2 2 #1 February 24, 2004 Just wondering how most of you earned your USPA license. Personally I hold the highest respect for my license cause I worked hard to get it.May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view. May your mountains rise into and above the clouds. - Edward Abbey Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

flyangel2 2 #15 February 24, 2004 That's what I'm trying to figure out. Just how can someone use another person's license number if they didn't earn it? Just trying to figure out how this all works. So a person uses another person's license number and signs log books. Then the person who got the log book signed by the other person who's license number really wasn't their's (are you with me still?), goes to get their license and it's brought to their attention that the person who signed the log book didn't use their real license number. Does the person that is trying to get the license have to go back and get the jump resigned?May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view.

sunshine 2 #19 February 24, 2004 I'm confused. I don't understand why a lower number is such a big deal to some people. Someone that chooses to "borrow" someone else's number cause it's lower is just being an asshat. ___________________________________________ meow I get a Mike hug! I get a Mike hug!

DJatLarge 0 #20 February 24, 2004 It took me forever, but I finally mailed a copy of my USPA card yesterday. I've been basically licensed at my DZ since August, just hadn't taken the time to fill out the card, get it signed off, etc. I feel like it is an accomplishment after 2 years of "work." Sure it was fun earning it, but expensive student jumps and learning what I needed to know made it seem like work at times!!! Can't wait to see my name in Parachutest!! CASE OF BEER!!!!

boxingrrl 0 #23 February 24, 2004 Why would you want someone else's number again? Being an asshat, aside-- it doesn't do you much good to have mismatched bullshit USPA cards when you go to another DZ. How does that work-- "I use this name on waivers and on credit cards, but this is my USPA identity?" I'm all for having sex with someone to get the license-- but only if I get to pick who Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SkySlut 0 #24 February 24, 2004 Interesting little tidbit from the USPA...I sent in my requirements for an A license and they sent me a B instead...I guess they figured that I was ahead of the game for some reason. When I did get the license, I was already B qualified...so I never got an A license "officially". Way to go USPA!!!! Whoooohoooo!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
