Fab 0 #1 January 13, 2005 On www.skydivingmovies.com there is a movie (look under 'new videos') about airforce AFF training. It's a documentary of 45 minutes. Jumpers have 45 minutes of traning in the windtunnel and will make a first jump with 1 instructor and leave the airplane (herculus) unassisted. It's a very nice documentary. Go see it!!... wouldn't it be nice if my DZ had a herculus to jump from ... _______________________________________ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AggieDave 6 #2 January 13, 2005 No doubt. The USAFA (Air Force Academy) has 3 otters that their jumpers jump for free. Its basically like a class for them...9am calculas, 10am history, 11am skydiving... Of course the downside is having to compete in classic accuracy and always jumping Classic canopies.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

Fab 0 #3 January 13, 2005 That 'Click me' thingy is NOT funny dude "Of course the downside is having to compete in classic accuracy and always jumping Classic canopies" Yeah...no velocities or stilleto's to play with? Poor guys Yep...What I noticed though that they pack there one parachute before they make their first jump which I think is a good thing. _______________________________________ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
