  1. Last year we did some AFF training L1, L6, L7 from C-27 Spartan but the speed wasn't fast. Around 220kmh/118knts. No problems at all. I'm not sure An-32(the same An 26) would be good for AFF according to the low speed limit during opened ramp. As soon as pilots agree to slow down enough comfortable for you, you are good to go. At the end - Be safe!
  2. Hey, I've been using it since 2009! Recently they have improved their construction a lot! I use my Multispeed mainly for AFF and camera but its good for tandems too. Choose wisely fabric material according your DZ temperatures! It worth its money!

  6. Its very funny to know that someone still interested in old round russian canopies! I've done about 70 jumps with UT-15 during my training,more that 20 years ago. In that time was mandatory to get through UT-training then start jumping with square canopy!!! Basically there is no much difference between second and fifth version! Some minor changes of the harness container, the toggles been moved over from back risers to the front risers ! The canopy is the same! Russians and most Eastern European countries take as a basic technical data the whole area of the round canopies,so UT-15 area is 50 sq.meters Pretty small IMO! The opening shock is tremendous! I haven't seen UT-15 opened for ages! Would be interesting if you share some pictures and videos!
  7. Thank you for the information guys! I appreciate it! Cheers! Rado
  8. Hi fellas, A colleague of mine needs for Spectra 725-4 spools! Do you know for any supplier or store with reasonable price offer in Europe? Any suggestions? Thank you in advance!
  9. Hi again, Sorry for delay! Here are some pictures taken from my videos.You can see the floor and sill there.I use the gap between the sill and the wing making spotting. IMO its even easier in that configuration! Greetings! Rado
  10. Hello to the Middle Earth, I'm not staff TI of that Bulgarian DZ but I've done some tandems with that Piper Cherokee 6. Basically the pilot use GPS for spotting there.If you have any instructor on board, he can make a visual spotting through the door. As you said its easy to handle the passenger at the door during the exit!So you can use that plane for tandem operation! Greetings from Bulgaria! Rado

    Our Dropzone is operating at Sapareva Banya Airfield. Distance from capital city of Sofia is 60km, 150km from Plovdiv. The airfield is located near 7 Rila's lakes. Beautiful scenery and nature.
  12. Several years ago I sank my FT-60 in the sea. I get in touch with Stephane from Viplo ,sent it to him. He repaired it and I have used ever since! My advice is: just get in touch with factory, and they do the rest.I'm very satisfied of their customer service. Good luck! Rado
