Sorry to hear that georger...I know those pesky relates have to go somewhere. Happy Thanksgiving to you as well. hangdiver "Mans got to know his limitations" Harry Callahan

And for those really 'big Johnsons"....Hang gliders also have retractable gear... hangdiver "Mans got to know his limitations" Harry Callahan

OK. Im sorry. Lets just let Blevins, Airtwardo, and Class Clown and JT and you set the agenda here. And not post anything else? So Robert99, what will Blevins and his mother be eating on Thanksgiving Day? Give us the inside story! Did you know Blevins wont be attending the Ariel Party or the Symposium - did you get that? Blevins. Post it again. Some may have missed it. Engeens on plainz dont matder knowhow - yepper! YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHAW! Maybe I'll just point out that immediately behind georgers attached pic you see no turbulence...the rotors are much further behind the aircraft that would be of any consequence to a jumper and those are wing tip vortices and a bit of other random turbulence. Hey georger...are you making an appearance at the symposium? I did get that Blevins is going into hiding...throwing the mother-in-law card. Damn I'm smart...I don't even have a mother-in-law. hangdiver "Mans got to know his limitations" Harry Callahan

377 Just to correct...second link (page 13) the far right picture says "Fog" it should say "Frog". Nice Snow... hangdiver "Mans got to know his limitations" Harry Callahan

Happy Veterans Day to you as well Jerry...by the way...been there and Pinned him myself. oh...my Son and my Dad learned to jump on the same airfield...too bad Grampa passed away before he could attend. hangdiver "Mans got to know his limitations" Harry Callahan

Thanks Jerry...I'm talking to my favorite Vet right now...my son...former Ranger... hangdiver "Mans got to know his limitations" Harry Callahan

It's not Cooper's...but I was cleaning out my shed I found this... Pic attached... eta: I think it's silk...???... hangdiver "Mans got to know his limitations" Harry Callahan

Well...I have a few...some base...and some night Hang Gliding flights also SEL airplane flights...night aero is so cool...and scary...but I've got to get that adrenaline somehow. I know I'm not the poster you were addressing but just my 2 cents... apologies... hangdiver I have a bunch of them.... AMAZINGLY... I survived all of them... GO Figure Yep Amazon...you certainly have pushed the odds... ... eta: I think the night Hang Gliding flights were by far the most scary... hangdiver "Mans got to know his limitations" Harry Callahan

Please read these uses for pure titanium.... http://www.1weddingband.com/TitaniumFaqs.html just because it's on the internet doesn't necessarily mean it's true....but something struck me while reading them...it's allegedly used in optics...PPG was into optics...Braden worked for a glass company...I don't know if Snow nailed down which one but I find it interesting anyway...and you all know my dad is my pet suspect... eta: I found another link to PPG and Titanium... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titanium Just following rabbit trails... hangdiver "Mans got to know his limitations" Harry Callahan

Hey Jerry...please put a name to the airline pilot you are always referring to...please...just for clarification purposes. hangdiver "Mans got to know his limitations" Harry Callahan

BOLD by hangdiver That's just weird Farflung...I met a guy named Cooper on Tumbleweed road who became my friend...whoa...weird... hangdiver "Mans got to know his limitations" Harry Callahan

was found apparently slipped dwn between the seats so he overlooked it. What I wonder is why take the tie off at all? He must have been an experienced sky diver SOG and all that - Probably in the Olympics! Probably did a tandem with FDR and knew JFK! Probably knew Leonardo da Vinci! (when he wasnt smoke jumping) Links please...for verification... hangdiver "Mans got to know his limitations" Harry Callahan

I'm just wondering if this company used exotic metals in the early 70's? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PPG_Industries just wondering... hangdiver "Mans got to know his limitations" Harry Callahan

I hate answering my own posts...but...I was just thinking how I find little chips in the weirdest places after a session in the shop...even weeks later. hangdiver "Mans got to know his limitations" Harry Callahan

I would say those chips could have been made by a drill press as well...I've worked in a few machine shops and mechanic shops over the years...but WTF is a guy wearing a tie doing in a machine shop anyway...I see a guy sitting at his desk or drawing board fondling a part that hasn't been thoroughly cleaned to see if it's up to specs or some other kind of passive transfer. eta: damn near forgot...I've got a small machine shop... hangdiver "Mans got to know his limitations" Harry Callahan

Thanks R99, on one combat jump my dad said another jumper swung through his lines and collapsed the other jumpers chute...they both landed under my dad's parachute and walked away...he was an original "Badass"...he jumped with a 30cal machine gun and had to hook up with his buddy with the tripod and ammo. hangdiver "Mans got to know his limitations" Harry Callahan

They were issued these cloth helmets for practice jumps..I believe in 1941 and the 503rd were the only ones to wear them so far as my research has shown me. http://www.ww2-airborne.us/18corps/503_overview.html My Dad told me about jumping into the golf course. He's also in those combat jumps shown in the below link. http://www.ozatwar.com/usarmy/503rdparachuteinfantryregiment.htm eta: he always had fond memories of the Aussie girls...or Sheilas as they are known locally... hangdiver "Mans got to know his limitations" Harry Callahan

Well...as fate would have it...I just discovered one more piece of evidence Sunday at a family meeting (code for fighting over shit my siblings want)...that my dad was Cooper. I opted for an antique 8mm movie camera and some antique bicycles rather than the worthless antique armoire, hutch and other stuff that doesn't interest me...but I did get the coin collection and my dad's military memorabilia that included his Sterling Silver 503rd Jump Wings. Pic attached... Now I have his 503rd cloth jump helmet, the very first Airborne patch and his Jump Wings to make a skydive with in the Spring...come on Meniscus...heal...heal...!!! eta: by the way...if you see someone gimping around Ariel it's not me... hangdiver "Mans got to know his limitations" Harry Callahan

Farflung, just so you don't waste your precious time looking (code for distorting evidence) for your favorite suspect...my dad did it...I know it...because I found a picture of him jumping out of a plane...I just need to find what he did with the other $196,150 cause I've got some bills to pay. hangdiver "Mans got to know his limitations" Harry Callahan

Farflung, you need to come to a dropzone...after dark... hangdiver "Mans got to know his limitations" Harry Callahan

1) Thanks Tom and assistants for all of your work...also thanks for sharing the findings (more than I can say for some other posters...you know who you are). 2) I think it is a bit premature to try to package Cooper in a particular box due to the particles found on the tie that Cooper allegedly wore and left in seat 18E...okay...could there be a chance that Cooper took one of his supervisors ties and left it there to implicate him...???...can that be ruled out...???...I know we're talking probabilities here...now...don't let probabilities be confused with conspiracy theories... I think the more questions you can ask yourself the better chance you have of seeing the big picture... Although...I do realize you have to start somewhere...for sure... I'm not dissing Tom's theories...just asking more questions. hangdiver "Mans got to know his limitations" Harry Callahan

From snowmman of course: Thanks Snow... hangdiver "Mans got to know his limitations" Harry Callahan

Jo...more of the same I'm sure...377...did I detect some frustration...???... Hey Jo...please then no more POOR ME posts... I second 377's PLEEEZZ.... hangdiver "Mans got to know his limitations" Harry Callahan
