Most of the alouette II's are 3130 models and have only 400 HP my alouette is a later model built by aerspatiale called a 318c and it has 530hp It's also much quieter and burns alot less fuel. so I don't think I'll have any problem with 4 jumpers. 2s are no problem for jumping but I would prefer 3s when I need to shoot something...

Yip the deployment is incredibly fast and there is minimal stress on the PGs. They have normal paraglider reserves which I am sure will be fine for the type of mal they may experience. These jumps are applied for and approved 'outside of normal skydiving activities' so I guess TSO not relevant although they are technically skydiving after they deploy the release. Our regs regarding demos, airspace classification and the CAA authorisation process differ from the US anyway but there are still certain requirements from our CAA regarding throwing something / somebody out of aircraft here - still a bit of a grey area Cheers G --------------------------------- www.skydiverustenburg.co.za www.skydiveqatar.com

Here in deepest darkest Africa we often use choppers of all kinds on our demos including R44's. One of our airshow circuit acts uses them for their Acro Paragliding Stunt as well - see attached pic Anything is possible --------------------------------- www.skydiverustenburg.co.za www.skydiveqatar.com
