Brian425 0 #3 October 13, 2004 Congrats. Sounds like you have a wonderful daughter. It also speaks well of her parents. The only time you should look down on someone is when you are offering them your hand. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mjosparky 3 #4 October 13, 2004 You should be very proud. She sounds like she has her head on straight. What a thrill it must be to jump with you daughter. SparkyMy idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dtpilot 0 #7 October 14, 2004 sweet . I hope I have a kid like yours. That would be a dream come true. Thats awsome. Congrats to both of you and good luck in the future. i have always admired the military skydivers so I see what she is so excited about. I admire the PJs where I am stationed at currently. Good luck and Blue Skies! "Believe me!

SkymonkeyONE 3 #8 October 14, 2004 What a nice newspaper story. Hey, doesn't Autumn still owe me a packjob for doing those AFF jumps with her? See you both this weekend, Chuck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrJones 0 #9 October 15, 2004 Definitely a great story, and congratulations to both of you. You must be doing things right to raise such a cool kid. Kudos to you. NUR ZUM SPASS Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AdrenalineBluez 0 #10 October 16, 2004 That ROCKS!!! Very cool story!!! Not to change the direction of the thread I do have a question. I have only been jumping a VERY short time. However, my son (14) wants to go so badly he can taste it. I know the age limit of 18 as posted by the USPA? I also noted that a legally notarized waiver as per the story can bypass that??? Is that DZ specific??? Any information on this would be greatly appreciated... PM so I dont mess with the thread... Thanks!!! Shannon "Uh oh! This is gonna hurt!"

BlueSBDeath 2 #11 October 16, 2004 It is indeed dropzone driven!! Some do not want to take the chance of injuring a minor, or anyone else for that matter. Just shop for a minor friendly DZ, and ensure the instructors are on the top of there game, small AFF students pose very significant challenges.
