  1. Phoenix, Arizona Greenie in training.
  2. Sure it is. It's all in who you know. So many of you don't know just how much of the stuff in "Cutaway" came from real life... I do realize, I have heard the stories. I however have no business skydiving into a tight landing area in the dark with 100+ pounds of drugs strapped to me. I would much rather do it in a legal way. Feel free to introduce me to your contacts though bytch. Greenie in training.
  3. If only it were that easy. Greenie in training.
  4. Nono we just skydive in with drugs in a rucksack. Greenie in training.
  5. I am still here. Was hoping for more info. Greenie in training.
  6. Nope it is fine. I have been using google and gmail all day long. Greenie in training.
  7. That reply was meant for KevinMcGuire and I am pretty sure he was serious. Greenie in training.
  8. Also did you drive from boogie to boogie or what? That is something I would actually consider. With the way things are going at the moment I am working 2 whuffo jobs and only getting in like 2 jumps on sunday since I jump at a small cessna DZ. At that rate getting enough jumps for my tandem rating is years away. If this is still possible is there a packing concession that travels the boogie circuit? Greenie in training.
  9. 1. Door! 2. The inside of my eyelids. 3. Mosquitos If you could pick one television show that would never end what would it be? Greenie in training.
  10. Good insight. This post has been interesting and helpful even with all of the attempted hijacking. Greenie in training.
  11. NEVER open attatchments from him. You should know that by now but if not you have been warned. Greenie in training.
  12. I don't have those responsibilities and it is very alluring to me. I personally think I would be very happy just barely paying the bills and living on ramen and cheap beer if my job was skydiving. That being said if in a few years when I get enough jumps for my tandem rating I will be trying to do just that. If it doesn't work out I can always get another real job. At the very least I will eventually do it durring the summers. It is all a matter of how you feel about it. If you love skydiving that much and are willing to live like that then go for it. Greenie in training.
  13. I will help answer you. It is definately possible to cutaway once you get the experience to do so. Do you consider packing for a living cutting away? If so you could easily do that right now. I would recomend checking here. Being a tandem instructor or videographer at a large DZ could certainly be a full time job. That being said you won't get rich doing it. Greenie in training.
  14. He is also a permanent full time student! Yeah, I heard they are about to clear him to jump by himself soon though. Greenie in training.
  15. If I am not mistaken aggiedave's only job is as a tandem master. Greenie in training.
  16. The only question is how do you count tandems? 2 jumps, 3 with video, or just 1? Same for AFF. when you need 8 (or 15, or just 3) to get the plane up, every slot counts! If there are 3 people on the plane facilitating a tandem and they all exit they are all skydiving correct? If you follow that logic yes you count them all. Each of them has a paid slot on the load. Greenie in training.
  17. IMO, I would only count returning jumpers. Tandems and AFF students not fill the plane? If they make a skydive they are a jumper even if only once. Greenie in training.

    Fusion!

    Add me to the list of people who like it! Greenie in training.
  19. Are you saying the largest fleet of jump aircraft? Whatcha got in your hangar? Cuz I can tell you we have 10. With a possible addition in the future. I was about to ask the same thing. Carolina Sky Sports Skydive Arizona Greenie in training.
  20. If I didn't have the means to jump and was offered that deal for 4 jumps I would be all over it. Short term grief for a long term reward. Greenie in training.
  21. When was this party? Greenie in training.
  22. I voted yes but I do not have an AAD in my rig to begin with. Greenie in training.
  23. I remember some of them but just because they are timeless. Greenie in training.
  24. Smartest marketing move I've ever seen!! They were just starting to go nationwide and needed some help... Those ad's gave them a TON of extra exposer on other TV and radio shows. Now whether they meant to have such an obnoxious commercial that everybody hated and would talk about, I don't know.....but it worked!! Didn't work for me. I actually made it a point to go to subway instead of quizno's after seeing that commercial. Greenie in training.
  25. Whoever is on top is exibiting very poor shocker form. Greenie in training.
