    I'm not sure about the Katana, but my XF2 can be really floaty and make it back from long spots with the rears quite nicely.



    I make it back from spots on my Crossfire2, 97 loaded at 2.0 that others can't come close to. It helps that I pull higher as well. But the glide is amazing on the xf2. I've got over 300 jumps on mine now. I LOOOVE it...

    Medic, you2 make a GREAT couple! And that was one really fun skydive! I'll have to come and visit and we can do it again B|
    Mr. Blue, Way to keep cool B| You2 are also a cute couple :)Bytch, she is one very cool individual.. Great skydiver and has a GREAT "rack" from what I hear :P She tracks around a formation like no one I have ever seen track before!!
    Phree, you2 are also a cute couple B|, gotta love all that technology.. If it wasn't for you my account would have been overdrawn by 500$ more than it is now.. lol, and I didn't "hit" the swoop pond. Of 27 attempts I only got a little wet twice ;) , cypress stayed dry!!
    Clay, Also a very cool individual. Anyone that is good enough to follow my sliding ass across the sky head down is alright in my book.. lol We could very well be drinking buddies and get in alot of trouble :o, the best swoop I had all week and he forgot to turn his camera on.. lol
    I had fun with you all.. I will NEVER miss another convention again.. Very cool.. Great bunch of people. If I missed anyone you are all cool in my book.. With one small exception.

  3. Let me put a final correction on this..
    I was in the back right hand side of the helicopter. We took off, went into max acceloration and banked HARD right just before the corner of the corn field. When that helicopter banks hard it is almost inverted. Just the other side of the corn was the individual in the crouching position, he went from the crouching position to the standing with his video camera in hand. I was looking him in the face when I saw the main rotor strike him 2 times. It actually hit him 3 times. There was a very loud and explosion sending dibris into the air. Without getting into detail "please don't ask" This was a terrible accident. My heart goes out to the victum, his new fiance, family, Rod and everyone.
    His body was mostly intact. Please don't ask for details. I think respecting Rod and the victum and family dictates that this one be left alone. Aside from the fact that I would very much like to put it behind me all together.
    I did alot of crying and drinking that night as did a few people I am sure. Let us all be carefull and make good decisions exercising some preventive maintenance and maybe this won't ever happen again.
    Be safe, Blus skies,
