That's normal summertime temps at the top for us. Harden up! The last time I jumped in NC it was the middle of February. It was awesome because Paul Fayard had the CASA running for us at Louisburg. Seriously, people in your part of the world just switch from shorts and tees to sweats and long sleeves. Probably a heavier jumpsuit as well.

Yes, it is an older letter. Written before the primary. Roy's wife Kayla reposted it on her FB page last Sunday without mentioning that fact. At least a couple pastors have asked to have their names removed from it. http://www.al.com/news/index.ssf/2017/11/53_pastors_sign_letter_of_supp.html Huffpo is using it in a misleading way. They should and probably do know better. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.

Nearly all sellers here are legit. Although many may not really know what they are doing. And sometimes not much about gear. The frequent sellers are easy, they can all give references. For the one time sellers that you can't be sure of, just be sure to use PayPal. They will take care of you if you are ripped off.

I know lot's of people who come here for information and never post. It's common. It's less common for them to become classified sellers though. But if you think about it it makes sense. This sport has lots of people who drop out after a few years. Many of them just leave their gear in the closet. But it makes more sense to sell it.

It has been many years since I have inspected a Raven canopy. I seem to remember that they had the TSO label sewn to a rib right at front edge. Look there and see what you can find. Jerry Baumchen Well, that's one way to encourage him to inspect it! Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.

I just dug out a Raven II (e). DOM Mar. 90 I measure the slider to be 16.5 x 28 inches. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.

Rupert Murdoch spent many years and paid talking heads lots of money to make that happen. She was attacked relentlessly because it was perceived that she could one day win. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.

Exactly what model Raven 2 is it? By "original" do you mean not a -M, not a Super Raven, or the very first model? Is there a letter in brackets on the label? I have a couple Raven 2s here. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.

Just for context I went back and looked at pics of my daughter when she was 14. Then I tried to imagine judge Roy at 32 touching her. Every time I tried to imagine it I ended up in jail for murder. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.

My 2 cents? A wide body model is fine. (because that's what I"M used to) But not a three blade prop. An original 182 has a two blade prop. Of course, if it is depicted as a spinning blur it can be anything! Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.

Unless their name is Hillary Clinton...and we'll give him a pass on that one. He has been no harder on her than he was on BHO. True equality of shameful hatred. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.

Get over the blade thing. It happened once. It is never ever going to happen again. You can believe me. I'm a truck driver. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.

I'm going to stick up a little for Ron here. Yes I am. This is what he said up thread: And he has also stated that he much regrets giving permission for his ex-wife to get an abortion. Most of us agree that the idea that she would need his permission is abhorrent. However, it must have the law at the time. As wrong as that law was, Ron did not write that law and it is not reasonable to assume he is a misogynist for feeling guilty over his role in the matter. I tend to look for the best in people until they show otherwise. Ron has said things that make me believe he is somewhat more racist than most of us. He has spread lies about politicians he does not like. With glee. And he has demonstrated the basic hypocrisy of his brand of Christianity over and over again. But I have never detected a hatred of or a blaming of women in his posts. Unlike some sockpuppets we occasionally have here.

If the possibility of AAD failure makes you nervous you should examine your confidence in your skills and abilities. There is only a very small chance you will ever have an AAD fire. If you do there is an even smaller chance that it will fail. The total risk is very close to zero. People overthink these things all the time.

I've got no explanation. But I did just see a pic of Justin Trudeau wearing the same thing. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.

Hmmm....Probably the most sensible explanation I've ever heard. An admission that you don't really know because you can't really know. And an acceptance that you will need to wait to find out more. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.

When my only knowledge was that it is continuous, I assumed that it would eventually launch. Being tied down changes that. But even if what I first thought was correct, it would still need two cutters. Because the maker says it needs two cutters. The fact that I misunderstood the reason is irrelevant. As far as if it would still launch goes, maybe it would after some time. That time could easily be the rest of someone's life though.

Incorrect. Attached is an image of a standard 6" Racer loop. It is tacked to the reserve pilot chute under the hat. Notice how the loop is tacked to the type 4 backing. Releasing 1 side will not allow it to 'slide through'. Both sides must be released. What the manufacturer told this gentleman is correct. There you go. That's why you don't want me to pack your Racer. Even though I knew it was a continuous loop I did not know it was tacked to the cap.

You probably talked to Nancy, and she IS NOT wrong. Both ends of the loop must be cut. Just because the thing would eventually launch does not mean cutting one end is enough. I was only explaining to you that it is a continuous loop. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.

Ok, I'm back in. The Racer loop IS a continuous loop. Cutting one side will allow the p/c to launch. However, it will be impeded to some degree by having to be pulled through the packed reserve and the p/c cap. A Lodi loop is a similar finger trapped loop that is easily adjustable by pulling the tail end tighter. It is not a generally accepted method because it is contrary to every manufacture's instructions. There is still a disadvantage to needing two cutters. The cost of the second cutter. The decline in the popularity of Racers began at about the same time as the increase in the popularity of CYPRES loop cutting AADs. The extra cost was a large part of the reason. Racers were very popular before then. Another factor was the increase in RSL use. The Racer RSL has been beat to death in another thread.....
