  1. I'm no jump pilot or anything, but I would start going through the database here on DZ.com and just start calling DZs to find out what is required. I know some pilots do it for free just to build time for their future careers. Good luck. B http://www.brandonandlaura.com
  2. Has the name of some famous family. LOL I don't know much else about ya. http://www.brandonandlaura.com
  3. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3469840588&category=3064 This isn't my auction, nor do I know who is selling it. I just did a search on eBay and this came up. Looks pretty funny. There is some good "Engrish" on it too. Looks like a cool "chick" shirt. http://www.brandonandlaura.com
  4. I was told by many of my students that I look like the guy in Rudy. *shrug* I never saw the movie. Sean Astin... http://www.brandonandlaura.com

  6. Could you imagine getting a rental, paying the insurance, going to Skydive AZ, dropping it and then taking it back saying you were lucky to have bought the insurance. LOL "Well, it was a good thing I was wearing my rig when we slid off the cliff. I think the brakes went bad. You could pull a "Vin Diesel" off the side. http://www.brandonandlaura.com
  7. Here is a pic of the rental car we got in Colorado 2 years ago: http://www.brandonandlaura.com/photos/colorado02/pages/Dsc01183_jpg_jpg.htm http://www.brandonandlaura.com
  8. Awesome. I can see CC from my room. (The room looks down the strip.) I may have to check that out this evening. Anyone local want to head out that way for some food and jump?
  9. I chose 4, but that is by rounding up. I have my main desktop, a file server, my laptop, and a Dell Axim. So, that is pretty much 3.5 with the Axim. http://www.brandonandlaura.com
  10. Hey all: I'm in Vegas until tomorrow for a trade show. Also, I'll be back next Sunday for another week until the 3rd. I'd like to hook up with some local skydivers to hang out with. Is there a Vegas DZ that caters to fun jumpers? If you'd like to hang out/meet up, shoot me a Private Message and I'll give you my cell number. I'm at the Las Vegas Convention Center right now for the NSCA 2004 show and will be back for the ISC West show. I'm staying at the Stratosphere right now and will be in the Monte Carlo next time. Shoot me a PM and I'll get you my cell #. Let's hook up for some food and stuff. Laters. :) http://www.brandonandlaura.com
  11. Anyone know what is up with the ACCESS DENIED shots instead of photos ??? HELP !!! http://www.brandonandlaura.com
  12. My family has had lots of Dobermans. You would lose. Your family would collect life insurance. End of story. http://www.brandonandlaura.com
  13. Yeah.. it is pretty awesome ! I would love to see some of that stuff up close. I bet it is 10x better. Need to make it to Arizona from cold Ohio. LOL http://www.brandonandlaura.com
  14. Yikes ! $70 for the 20x30". I was hoping for a preprinted thing. I can't swing that kind of green. http://www.brandonandlaura.com

  16. Where do you guys recommend getting some sweet posters for framing and hanging ? I'm decorating my office at home and want to go aviation/skydiving. If you know where to get some cool skydiving (or avaiation) posters, let me know ! Thanks, Brandon http://www.brandonandlaura.com
  17. I have the following for work and love it: Dell Inspiron 8500 P4 2.4GHz 512MB RAM nVidia 64MB vid card 40GB 5400rpm HD firewire/s-video out/USB 2.0/serial (for GPS units)/more Yes, I use this with my Garmin eTrex Vista GPS unit for movable maps with MS Streets & Trips 2004. It is a SWEET unit if you drive a lot in unfamiliar territory. If you have any questions, let me know. :) http://www.brandonandlaura.com
  18. Do you guys think this is the way cameras in skydiving is going ? Seems interesting... light, high quality and small. http://www.brandonandlaura.com

  20. I just added 3 more DZ reviews a few minutes ago.
  21. Sweet ! Mine are in there. I logged on last night and thought about how I haven't really done too many. Thanks, HH !
  22. That's right... 15000' on EVERY jump. You can't beat the altitude. Any more and you'd need O2. The people here are great and the view... wow. Jump AND see the Kennedy Space Center all at once. It is a really cool place. The only bad thing was the amount of "outs" that could or could not contain alligators and other swamp wildlife. Either way, it was an excellent place that I would love to revisit.
  23. After spending several days at Chicagoland Skydiving, I just want to say that it was a great experience. I did my first x-country jump there and it was planned perfectly. The people there (jumpers and staff) were very helpful and very nice. Even though I was a visitor, they took time to show me around and everything. The only bad part is there is NOTHING around... no place to eat or anything that is convenient. Overall... it ROCKS !
  24. Hey JT... head down to the PR boogie ! I am trying to hook that up for the wife and I. We have never taken a skydiving vacation before. http://www.brandonandlaura.com
