RichM 0 #1 February 23, 2003 Well what a great weekend. I did my 600th jump on Sat morning, a friendly 3 way flat fly. I jumped my first reserve pack job on the next dive. And I finished off with my first night jump. I hopped out at 12000ft above Headcorn, the dying embers of a gorgeous sunset still kissed the horizon, and the twinkle of a million lights painted towns and roads on the dark vista below me. I just gently turned watching it all. Canopy deployment was normal (actually its been improving since Ive been psychopacking my crossfire) and the landing site was easily picked out for a lovely no wind straight in turf surf. And a beer was quickly thrust in my hand. I love this sportRich M Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RichM 0 #4 February 23, 2003 I had my PC100 on and had it set night shot, but it's mostly very dark so I haven't bothered capturing it. I'll need to work out a method of shooting at night for the next one.Rich M Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
