What? Nats? What the hell??? Girl, chin up! Get jumping again!

Hi Seanie, FFU offer both BPA and USPA certification - I and my eldest son both did AFF there, and have returned since then ... great place, all the crew are cool, both Spanish as well as English, world class instructors, I wrote up my story - maybe read it - it will hopefully give you an idea of what to expect. http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=4342021;page=unread#unread Whatever you choose, enjoy it, stay safe and have fun

Thanks....

So, I am toying with the idea of getting a rating for flying jump planes - single engine - and was wondering what rating is required? Is there a minimum hours required for flying etc? Any advice would be appreciated. Ken

Agreed, the driver should have kept his cool, not responded and let the cyclist make a charge. Then the Cyclist is open for "malicious prosecution" lawsuit - it is pretty clear the cyclist was provoking the confrontation.

ummmm, no, Pluto is beyond Neptune, and was - until reclassified, the furthest of the 9 planets in our solar system...The order of the planets is - Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn. Uranus, Neptune and then the reclassified Pluto!

Hi Chris, Normally I stay out of "religious" debates because most folk have entrenched ideas and don't want to debate, they just want to state their side without possibility of movement - and this is on both sides - religious and non-religious. You asked for opinions and Ron responded - it is his (and many others opinion), and at least Ron is consistent and not embarrassed about his faith - so why surprised he has responded? Looking at this from the ISIS perspective, and I do believe that you need to see this through their eyes, there was a very interesting article published a while ago on ISIS, I will see if I can find the link (I did publish it on SC) - where ISIS are trying to provoke the apocalypse. They believe that if they can get western boots onto the ground, they will usher in the apocalypse and then bring about paradise. That is why we have to get the middle east to resolve this, and we should not be involved. Also, looking back at European history, the Middle east is now going through the birth pains on democracy that we experienced over the last 7 or 8 hundred years - it is painful and bloody, but the middle east must find their own way, You cannot force social ideology onto a nation or region ... it always ends badly. We should only advise if requested to do so. We can defend ourselves but this is a battle the semitic nations (all of them) need to fight.

Where are you jumping in Ireland? And what days does your DZ operate?

Nats, try www.usagoals.com - it has nearly every sport broadcast on it. When he opens it, wait 30 seconds, then start to close the banners - it does clear and you get good quality - rugby, football, NFL, martial arts, basketball....its all on there.

with you on that - killing the sick and twisted / NSFW thread has spoilt this site.

Not everyone's cup of tea, but....very nice.... http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-2990264/The-stunning-models-covered-intricate-tattoos-vying-make-inkings-big-thing-catwalk.html
