  1. Whatever happened to a sandwich and maybe a free jump? $20 bucks an hour seems a bit steep.
  2. >>>>I think we need to do away with needing members to sign something saying someone can run, who cares if Joe Member wants to spend the 50 bucks and get thier name on the ballot we should let them, maybe more people would run! There is a flaw in your system Strat. Under your senario anyone with 50 bucks is in. So.... If you jump at a big Drop zone and your jump buddies will vote for you then you get a seat. Fuck the fact that you will never travel your region and talk to other skydivers. You got friends and you are in. I think regional directors should not be DZ owners and should travel the region and jump and talk to the people they represent. $50 bucks? Give me a fucking break! It takes at least $6000 to do this job. (Out of your own pocket) And no matter what some fucking shitheel is going to jump Your ass and say you are not good enough. 50 fucking bucks..... If that is all it takes then every idiot with a wallet will sign up even if they don't fucking care. You should HAVE to campaign and get signitures. Do you even know how hard it is to get 10% of your region? Have you ever tried? I agree with you on many things but don't fucking piss on my leg and tell me it is raining. You SHOULD Have to go out and beat the bush and show an interest. If you don't have the balls to go do that then you should not even be considered. Talk is fucking cheap... And that is all I hear on this board.
  3. If you have any new info on this please send me a PM. The last I heard he was indicted on Nov. 3rd 2007.
  4. Maybe we could start a new magazine and call it ParaHooters! ParaHootist? Something along the lines of easy rider?
  5. It sounds like that little yellow cable got pulled through that little white loop. Did I solve the mystery or is there something else here we need to discuss?
  6. ....I just want the truth to be told. No you don't. You want to cram your "truth" down our throats. You do not know the truth unless you made the jump yourself. Only one person knows what happened and he is not talking. If it were up to me I would have locked this thread a long time ago. R.I.P.
  7. Hey Jo.... When you started this thread it seemed like you were trying to put Duane in a harness. It was almost like you were looking for evidence to back up a theory. But now this thread has morphed into you trying to convince us (the skydiving community) that Duane was DB Cooper no matter what. Even if the evidence might prove otherwise you will not let it go unless you are right. Have you even considered the possibility that you are wrong? Maybe Duane just wanted to be DB Cooper......
  8. Lodi takes them too.... So your preference is non-USPA and non-skyride DZ's? Good luck finding both sister. Maybe we should start our own DZ, you supply the land, the airplanes, and the parachutes. My mom will make the costumes. More later,
  9. And that is 10 to 15 more than was there the last time. Its a start. Actually 10 to 15 members did show up at the last meeting. Mostly from the group presenting the BSR proposal for high performance landing safety. Oh yeah, and they were wearing matching T-shirts.
  10. We have the specs. I am currently at Dave Dewolf's running a rigging course. Please contact me the first of next week when I am in the shop for the specs. thanks, MEL Skyworks parachute Service
  11. First, I try to not offer 'what I think' on the internet. I do try (at least I think that I try) to only offer what I know or very strongly believe in. I have absolutely no idea who did it; before or after reading all of this BS. I am convinced that Mayfield did not do it. Why? Because he (IMO) does not fit the sketch, he really is not that bright of a person (could not rob a Mon'n'Pop grocery store & get away with it), and has never had that much money to his name. Oh, did I mention that I have known him since 1964? As I have mentioned before, not too long after the skyjacking, the FBI interviewed me at work for about an hour or so. I came away from that interview with one conclusion; the FBI had NO IDEA who did it. I think that conclusion is still valid. I consider all of this to be a real waste of time; unless one is in it for the fun & games. JerryBaumchen You are right Jerry, Teddy was not very good at getting away with things. He always got caught.... I think it is pretty obvious who did it
  12. Whatever, you obviously have an attitude and a pencil. The best dropzones in the world have 182s
  13. Give it to your rigger, He/She will tell you what to do.
  14. There aint no way an otter will beat a PAC750 to altitude. What are you smoking? I want some!
  15. When rigs without AADs are outlawed, only outlaws will jump without AADs.
  16. Do you have a phone number to call? I would like to talk.
  17. Lost Prairie is a cessna dropzone except during the boogie.
  18. Thanks fellas, I am mostly going to use it to edit/burn tandem videos and stills. Every day I find new cool stuff. Yesterday I loaded up my tunes on it and I now have just over 8000 songs. Best xmas present ever!
  19. I think He is still alive and a DZO
  20. OK so I got a new mac laptop and I am a PC guy. (for you it has already been covered do a search guys please don't respond.) Any tips to get started would be appreciated Thanks!
  21. Only people that had the shit together jumped the tu The TU was a Hot canopy...
  22. I thought it was obvious that these were recent purchases.
