  1. I don't see anything in WRJ's link about "disagreement over the croissants and flirting protocols with the stews". I guess I can read into the OPs thoughts of Frenchmen.
  2. LOL You might want to consider making your request a bit more specific. If you are a "professional researcher" good luck.
  3. Wasn't that answered in 2010 by Clarke? :-)
  4. i prefer to support my friends = squirrel / asylum / javelin. Others are good, they just don't get my cash. Just like I buy Campagnolo and not SRAM. support who you choose.
  5. Yes, will know more once mine is delivered in 6 weeks.
  6. any news? answer, it's fun, 'specially when your employer pays for the trip that just happens to coincide with jump day.
  7. ah, now is all clear. mistakes? yup, we all make them. back to PDCs. I like the idea of making a photocopy for the "rig" and sending the card with the canopy or vice-versa
  8. Pat Conatser is your best source to understand if the jet will fly jumpers again. Last I heard / saw; runway was extended / paved, engines were good to go, updating avionics $$$$$ was a challenge
  9. Interesting post. Thanks for taking the time to voice your thoughts
  10. But you were an extremely proficient flyer then, so i'm sure you made a good decision.
  11. stoopid? no scary? yes I led the trail plane jumpers to close on a 16 way CReW diamond to complete a 25 way diamond. at night lotta pressure to find the base not a lot of fun chose to not do that again. craig
  12. Questions 1 and 3 can be answered by Squirrel and or your container manufacturer. They know more than most of us here typing on the internet. Squirrel in particular is willing to provide info. #1 - Squirrel will tell you the cubic inch volume and your rig manufacturer can provide info. #2 - Probably yes with your experience level. #3 - Squirrel Danger zone here - your comment "get something faster later.".
  13. thanks Ray https://www.dropzone.com/forums/topic/273347-my-second-first-jump-story/
  14. isopropanol works. common problem with Ferrari switches on the cars from late 90s to about 2012...............
  15. Looks like I joined 27 Aug 2002, or maybe that was the new forum cross over date?? I'm still current, (barely), but impending retirement will increase jump freq. Craig Fenstermaker
