  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!

  4. 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!!!:S
    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. 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!

  8. 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!

  9. 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!

  10. Hi!
    Several years ago a friend of mine had the same problem but with Argus.The reason for that was improper treatment during carrying inside the bag.I mean,if the display is placed in the back side of the rig its very possible to hit it during transport. Just get in contact with Cypres and they will resolve your problem!
    Fly Safe!

  21. Hello to all tandem instructors!
    Recently I heard that there were some tandem fatalities with Performance Variable (now Firebird) Omega tandem.
    We use an Omega rig and I have to know what actually happend,what was the reason or reasons?
    If anyone know something about that, Please send any details !
    It could be better if you use some pictures,sketch or technical bulletin!
    Thank you in advance!:)Rado

  23. I was thinking just like Bill(can call you that?) to take experienced passenger and try what will actually the air flow when jump couple.I've had a few jumps from balloon and from helicopter too(I think circumstances are similar) In most of the jumps you have to wait up 10 sec to feel real velocity.
    Probably I have to wait(as you Drew said) more that 10 sec.
    Very useful info thank to all of you guys!
    Keep you in touch about the balloon jump!

  25. Hello to all tandem instructors over the world!
    Recently I've received an offer to jump from the balloon with passenger!
    Does anybody make that kind of jumps anywhere?
    If you do ,How do you make the exit(can I say that?)from the balloon?
    Thank you in advance!
