DSE 5 #10 August 18, 2007 Wind gusts to 40mph, 40% chance of rain (looking out the window, make that 100%). Been two weeks now of crappy/non-jumpable weather. On the flip side, I've rented a 182, pilot, and packer and am going to jump my tail off for a day later this week. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
