  1. Bienvenue dans la zone de dépôt. Welcome to the drop zone

  3. Its not quite that simple, whilst the OBOGs systems are integrated with inflow, they dont go via the engines! Besides OBOGs has been around for ages and is fully understood against gen 3/4 jets. The critical issues are related to G onset rates and demand against the control laws at certain parameters within the gen 4/5 jets. In addition there are other issues within design which are potential show stoppers under a small number of flight parameters which until you generate a lot of flight hours do not appear in simulation. Thats about all I am allowed to discuss. You dont think it has anything to do with the faulty ”Combat Edge” G-suit vest??
  4. Thanks for the advice... I don't know if I would have known to tip everyone but it makes so much sence!
  5. Hi Scott, you are the best! I WILL let you know for sure. Not sure about the exact day, might be Saturday the 28th. I'm going with a few other people that skydive in FL (my roommates). Arianna
  6. QuoteIf you think your going to like it then you will probably love it! I just started and only have five jumps to date and even though I suck at freefall I still enjoy it more than I can explain. That’s amazing! I'm glad to hear that, but why do you say you suck at freefall?? Arianna
  7. Trafficdiver, Thank you! I looked into wind tunnels and they actually don’t have any in Alabama (not surprised). But its still good to know that its not necessary ;) I'll be jumping tandem at first...I'm not bold enough to just do it...i feel like I would struggle with the canopy part of it? But who knows, I might surprise myself. Thanks for the support! Arianna
  8. So, I originally signed up to join this website as a resource for my upcoming jump at Skydive Alabama later this month. I know absolutely nothing about what to expect but I'm SO EXCITED. These forums are GREAT. I'm really learning a lot by reading other posts. I've watched a lot of videos also, and read a lot online. I'm just waiting at this point. It sounds like a wind tunnel is a good idea. What do people enjoy about jumping? I'd love to hear about what people enjoy most. I know it wont be easy at first because it sounds like there is a lot to remember but I'm looking forward to the challenge :)
