Incorrect. You can afford it, but you wish to prioritize your surplus spending. i.e. you fly, jump, auto racing, and whatever else... 15-20 bucks a year is a drop in the ocean compared to the cost of these things. But you have the right of course to list your spending priorities any way you like, this means that you can afford it, but you don't want to... ---------------------------------------------------- If the shit fits - wear it (blues brothers)--

Yes, there is no shame in plugging a donations link more aggressively, after all, the site provides way more than most payable online services of similar stature. ---------------------------------------------------- If the shit fits - wear it (blues brothers)--

I think it would be nice to have the left menu of the home page interface inserted into the left side of the forum. Reason: So many things that dz.com offers goes by the wayside, and we forget, or don't even know they exist. Today I 'discovered' the weather link on the home page, such a cool page to have at your fingertips. ---------------------------------------------------- If the shit fits - wear it (blues brothers)--

my first canopy was a new falcon 235. I never actually witnessed it opening..every time i looked up, it was open already. Of the 37 jumps i did on it before selling, id say 5 of those openings were near or at the 'blackout' level. Because i was just off newbie status when i jumped it, i actually assumed that these openings were just an accepted part of the sport and were normal - until i demo'd a safire 190....and i cannot describe the sense of euphoria during its opening stage...a different world completely. ---------------------------------------------------- If the shit fits - wear it (blues brothers)--

no, the t shirt pic is a mock-up, the idea came from a guy on here, cant recall his name. ---------------------------------------------------- If the shit fits - wear it (blues brothers)--

breakoff was 4.5, turned and tracked, then forgot to flare before pulling. Reslting in me being garroted by my chest strap, and the biggest adams apple bruise ive ever seen... ---------------------------------------------------- If the shit fits - wear it (blues brothers)--

if you look around, you will find the base price of a wings is approx $950. I have one on order, and thats what i paid (before stainless options and stripes etc). So, if a 50% off cert' costs ya $250, then a base price wings will cost you $725 in this scenario... ---------------------------------------------------- If the shit fits - wear it (blues brothers)--

i once sent a young apprentice to the stores for a skyhook and a 'long weight'. Storeman made him stand there for 15 mins, then said 'youve had your long wait, go back and tell your boss we have no skyhooks, but we have some bubbles for spirit levels if he wants one... :) ---------------------------------------------------- If the shit fits - wear it (blues brothers)--

50bucks was a shot in the dark figure, but I bet im not far off the mark - could be more even. DO you realize how much those damn things cost to maintain?? All im sayin is there will be no regular jump ticket for that baby. Still, id have no prob paying for a ticket @50+ for a cool novelty jump like that. ---------------------------------------------------- If the shit fits - wear it (blues brothers)--

A standard thats impossible to maintain for most DZ's, and a standard not needed. Think about. You gonna want to make 6 jumps a day from a jet at 50+ bucks a pop? I think you will settle for the typical Otter like everyone else...and jump the jet as a novelty occasionally. Ask anyone who jumped the jet at Quincy - they loved it, but were soon going back to the regular skyvans/otters etc. ---------------------------------------------------- If the shit fits - wear it (blues brothers)--

i have, quincy twice, chicago, and your zhills,hows paul the barman?plus lived in tx 3 years. It is easy for you to say burbleflyer is cool, due to the fact you know the guy...that certainly helps in forming an opinion!! The only way we, on here, have any way of forming opinions about virtual writers is by the 'signs', such as a blank profiles and off the wall statements like 'i can outlook anyone..' is usually a warning...I assume you understand where Im coming from. We can hardly be expected to intepret everything on here as genuine.I can only react to what i see. laters! ---------------------------------------------------- If the shit fits - wear it (blues brothers)--

'dont care if you have 10 damn million jumps sir, if ya cant be bothered to put details in your profile then your opinion isnt worth a bag of mouldy tripe...to me anyways. ---------------------------------------------------- If the shit fits - wear it (blues brothers)--
