Hans 0 #2 March 12, 2007 Discussion on jump numbers to fly video. We follow USPA recommended minimum.Personally I feel it should be 500 jumps. The Farm Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DSE 3 #3 March 12, 2007 Exit order, hook turns swooping, and wingsuits= most discussed. Exit order=most controversy Hook turns/setups=most information exchange Aircraft emergencies were heavily discussed, but since we hear a lot about this topic from pilots that also skydive, it wasn't much of anything new or controversial, it was more that the mechanic and pilot that discussed this subject had a really well put together presentation on turbine engine failure.

DougH 270 #4 March 12, 2007 Knowing your gear, people pounding themselves in under perfectly good mains, freefly safety: most discussed. There was also a good presentation on demo jumps. "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhreeZone 14 #5 March 12, 2007 Most Discussion: Previous years incidents and emergency procedures Most controversy: If and where 270 degree turns fit into a landing pattern Most information exchange: Intro to freeflying conversation or the talk about what a good landing pattern is.Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
efs4ever 3 #6 March 12, 2007 I thought our pilot's safety briefing was most interesting. He was very articulate in describing the events up front when one of the rubber bands breaks on a Twin. I feel safe flying with him.Russell M. Webb D 7014 Attorney at Law 713 385 5676 https://www.tdcparole.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
