Yes. But that does not change the fact your first response to anyone is some shade of personal attack. Christ..... did you run out of cheese again You have just proven his point. You are to easy. ________________________________ "1981 to 1988 is 7 years"-Kallend (oops, it's actually 8 years,Kallend) The decade of the 80's was from 1980 to 1989. 10 years.

....IF THE MAIN IS OUT THIS HAS TO BE STRESSED IN TRAINING. I know you know this but I've run into a lot of newbies that think an RSL will open the reserve if you pull the cutaway handle NO MATTER WHETHER THE MAIN IS OUT OR NOT! When I was working at a dropzone out on the west coast several years ago, we had a woman that jump out of the plane solo and at pull time she could not get her pilot chute out. Total malfunction. She tried the pilot chute twice and then pulled her cutaway handle thinking that the RSL would open her reserve. After pulling the cutaway handle she stayed in a stable position until her CYPRES fired. She had no idea that the RSL would not open her reserve with a total malfunction. And to make the story even scarier, this was her second or third jump of the day and on her previous jumps she did not have her AAD turned on. Just before she did the jump involving the CYPRES fire, she was given a gear check. The guy giving the gear check noticed her AAD was not on. He then turned it on for her while they were in the boarding area waiting for the plane.

I saw a bunny rabbit run across the back yard. I saw it and now I'm saying it. I feel better now. ________________________________ "1981 to 1988 is 7 years"-Kallend (oops, it's actually 8 years Kallend) The decade of the 80's was from 1980 to 1989. 10 years.

If they are asking for more than what was agreed to when the loans were made, then that would be called a bribe or possibly extortion. I don't know of any loans made where the lender can come back at a later point and ask for a bonus or something "extra" that was not specifically written into the loan agreement. ________________________________ "1981 to 1988 is 7 years"-Kallend (oops, it's actually 8 years Kallend) The decade of the 80's was from 1980 to 1989. 10 years.

They would probably use a picture from this. http://dsc.discovery.com/videos/moments-of-impact-swooping-skydiver-lands-hard.html

If you say so it must be true. No clear cut answer. It depends on the conditions. Up wind, down wind, wind speed etc. I try both brakes and riser to see which one is giving me better results in that particular situation. It's not always black and white as I learned by experiment and from taking several canopy courses.

Considering the other answers given in the thread I would say you missed the point. The question was not how to avoid getting yourself into that situation but what do you do after you are there. Such as if you have made a mistake, didn't pull high or whatever and you need a little help to get back using some other method besides what you would use if you were dropped right over the DZ. We all know that you would not make such a mistake nor have you ever done so in the past. We could probably go so far to say you have never landed off because in all of your years of jumping you have not made any mistakes which put you on a long spot. But it does happens to us mere mortals on occasion. In the cases where mistakes are made it is nice to get some info on how other people handle the situation. Obviously you do not have or need this information because you have never found yourself on a long spot.

Very good training video for you. You should have watched this before you got into an argument with lawrocket in the Acorn thread. You would have understood your erroneous thinking sooner. ________________________________ "1981 to 1988 is 7 years"-Kallend (oops, it's actually 8 years Kallend) The decade of the 80's was from 1980 to 1989. 10 years.

It's like lawrocket is arguing with rhys about 9/11. Give them all the facts yet they refuse to see the truth. lawrocket, you have owned her several times in thread.

Seems like you are being deliberately obtuse. You are now familiar with his debate style.

Yep, she kinda lost it in post 14 when she went off subject and started with the personal attacks.

Think it will fit? According to your profile, you have a Vigil in your rig, and I don't think both will fit. Do you really think that was his plan to put two AAD's in his rig or is it stir the pot time? Unbelievable. There is always one in every crowd.

Then stop beating the dead horse unless your ego can't let it go.

PA in a PM? The mods are not going to care. Grow up and get a thicker skin.

You seem to be pretty good at avoiding the point. Can you actually comment on the topic, or just others that have taken the time to do so? This is a discussion about instruction. Your wish seems to be to keep the content away from the topic as usual, if you are going to post in the instructors forum, I suggest you talk about instruction. Not focus on individuals, if you are going to disagree with people, please let us know what it is that you disagree with and let us all learn. I am here to learn, you seem to be here to provoke. You have proven my point. Thank you.

so why invite us into the thread? (sillybilly) That was not an invitation. It was a preemptive strike to try to dissuade you from the regular drivel. ________________________________ "1981 to 1988 is 7 years"-Kallend (oops, it's actually 8 years Kallend) The decade of the 80's was from 1980 to 1989. 10 years.

I think most people, conservative or liberal, have more of a problem with the illegal part than the work part.
