How many jumps did you make in your FIRST sky-year?

Recommended Posts

Started Sept 1, 2001.

DZ closed for the season Oct 15, 2001 (15 jumps)

Reopened April 20 2002. 5 jumps. First and only cutaway.

Did my career 100th in Early August. Still nice enough outside to get pied.

Finished the Season on Oct 16 with 121. Achieved a solo certificate, A and B license (C still requires 200 here).

One little cessna. Weekends only with the odd weekday thrown in.

A whopping 15! B|

Did my first 15 jumps between Sept '98 and May '99, all in Hazleton, PA. Moved to FL at the end of May, started back up in Jan '00, at Z-hills, once I had a steady income and realized there was a big DZ nearby.

Quite the difference between Hazleton and Z-hills! You don't get much different! I was scared of the Otters when I got to Z-hills. Big planes, eep!!

I was a hesitant student, to put it lightly. IAD's gone wrong will do that to ya though! ;)
