    I have a Sabre 170 which I've jumped about 50 times and I've had no hard openings yet . Maybe a few more jumps will tell me if the reputation is deserved or not... B.

  10. Hey Skreamer! Yup, I know of a couple of DZs here. There's Teuge with a Grand Caravan about 80km away, Rotterdam with a Porter about 40km away, then there's Texel (Antonov 2, Caravan & Let410) which is an island to the North of Amsterdam which is BEAUTIFUL to jump at! Who know's, I might even open my apartment to all and sundry for the weekend (could be a bad idea this....) I'm up for it - then again, I do live in Amsterdam! B

  18. Hey Skreamer, Shit, I must be a real geek. Telecoms contractor who bought his own laptop and built his own Linux based webserver. Aaargghhh! My mum always told me that I was special, but now I know why they've been laughing at me all these years... I AM A G E E K! CRAP.
