Rdutch 0 #1 January 7, 2012 6 of our Team Fastrax demo team rigs were stolen. Someone tried to cut the alarm wires, but instead cut the lines for the airport lights, and awoss. They broke into the team room, and stole 6 rigs. They are all Vector 3 containers. Black with a Red, White and Blue center flap. The rigs say team fastrax all over them. And the mains all are white and say Selection.com. Ray Small and fast what every girl dreams of! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rdutch 0 #3 January 7, 2012 Late december, I dont have the exact dates. I hope they find the guy. Im sure that cutting active runway lights has a stiff penalty. Oh yeah I forgot to post, there is a reward for the return, or information leading to the return, and/or capture of the person(s) involved. Ray Small and fast what every girl dreams of!

Usually some thing stolen with $30,000+ worth of value attached to it is quickly mentioned! Since there is a very small market for any of those items.

BillyVance 34 #5 January 7, 2012 I would be surprised if something that articulated gets sold. Fucking cocksuckers. Most likely, the gear got dumped.

chuckakers 412 #11 January 10, 2012 QuoteQuoteBut if I understand the event, that was all they took! Matt Then it would be personal not profit. Not necessarily. Burglars often grab just a handful of things they know (or assume) are worth the most money per armload. The longer they stay at the scene, the greater the odds that they will get caught. Complete rigs are the most valuable single, easy to carry items at a DZ. Those rigs are probably already being jumped somewhere in South America or will show up in a pawn shop somewhere.Chuck Akers D-10855 Houston, TX Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PhreeZone 15 #16 June 4, 2012 After that incident his mental health took a major hit and he was not the same person as he was before it. This is one of those things that people over look all the time in incidents, they might physically heal but mentally they might have issues. I just hope he gets some help now.Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
