  1. Unfortunately the Umm Al Quwain airport closed last year and never reopened. Skydive Dubai operate from behind the Habtoor Grand in the Dubai Marina but the last I heard was they were closed until September. They have a Facebook page with info on too. Don't put off 'till tomorrow what you can do today
  2. And me and my friend too! What is it with these morons!!! Don't put off 'till tomorrow what you can do today
  3. I used to live 40 miles from Headcorn. Did a tandem there years and years before I started jumping but no experience there as a fun jumper. I used to drive 2 1/2 hours to Hibaldstow EVERY weekend! If they can get one of the Dornier G92's in the air they will. 15 people to 15k in 15 minutes. Could hardly complain at that! Although the drive back on a Sunday night was horrible. I often had 'Mondayitis' Don't put off 'till tomorrow what you can do today
  4. From the entry gate to the shoreline it was about 40m or so. I wasn't there Thursday but I hear a few people got a bit wet Don't put off 'till tomorrow what you can do today
  5. I like this reply that a friend sent to a Craigslist Scammer! Fun with craigslist scammers: Im trying to sell a cell phone on craigslist. Here is the email I receved from a scammer. My client is interested in this item ,his will to buy it if available .his mode of payment is check ,he will forward the check to you for you to cash .the shipping of the item will be taking care by him so you don't need to worry about that .he will send his shipping company agent to you for the packaging of the item.please kindly send the following informations to me full name house addresszipcode phone numberthis informations is to help forward the check to you and to also help the shipping company locate you .please note ,it is after you have cash the check that the shipping company will come for the item.please i need a prompt response.thanks Here is my polite response: Certainly many thanks for the reply my address is: Mr. How Fucking Stupid Do you Think I Am666 Fuck off Road Your a dirty fucking scammer 99999, F-U state Absolutely! I would love you to send me a fake check that will be refused by every banking agency in the world. And I would also like to send you all my personal information as well. Should I just send you my credit card number? Will that make it easier for you to rip me off? If I can help you in anyway to screw me out of money please let me know. OOHHH!!! I have an idea let me give you the credit card numbers for all my friends and family as well. Will that be good for you? Better yet I could just give you my bank account number and address for it. That way you could just go there and take it right out. My preferred method of receiving my payment would be for you to come and meet me. I will have the 'item' taped to the end of a baseball bat. I will then make the exchange to your face. Is this an acceptable form of exchange? And I almost forgot, "Please I need a prompt response." Thanks Don't put off 'till tomorrow what you can do today
  6. Beers fine as there's a liquor store next to the DZ that you don't need a licence for. Plus you can drink in Hotel bars so not a problem! Don't put off 'till tomorrow what you can do today
  7. Me and hubby both used to work at Sebastian but we're now out in the UAE and were working at the DZ here. He's a rigger and I'm S&TA. Unfortunately we had a guy in the states last week that didn't want it cos we couldn't send it halfway across the world for him without payment first. Once *almost* bitten, twice shy... Don't put off 'till tomorrow what you can do today
  8. Yep, it's still closed I'm afraid. Me and my husband work here. Right now we do not have any idea as to when it will be reopening but they assure us it will be. We are still employed by them so they must think it will be soon. Don't put off 'till tomorrow what you can do today
  9. I now have another guy who has replied and he's account lists him as from Leeds, UK yet he want's to buy it for his son in Australia yet he says he can pay by Money order or check (note the US spelling) and the address he asks for Zipcode rather than postcode. Something just smells fishy with this one too... Gone are the days of selling used kit easily on here it seems... Don't put off 'till tomorrow what you can do today
  10. Are there more scammers lately or is it me? I have a container for sale on the classifieds yet I have people saying they want to buy it that just vanish off the face of the earth. We then had one last week who said he was buying it, sent a check to my father in law (as we are out of the country with the rig). Father in law deposited it at the bank and they told him it was a fake. The amount was way above the amount it should be but he didn't know that, we just told him to expect a check. Of course, then this 'buyer' was asking for a refund via western union. WE kept asking for his address to send a check to (we already knew he was a fraudster) and said he should hear from Fedex's fraud department and the police soon. Suffice to say we haven't heard from him since! FYI - his email address was [email protected] and his dropzone.com username was parachutes65 We have also emailed dropzone.com to let them know! Unfortunately these people mess it up for the rest of us as we are less likely to send a rig somewhere without receiving full payment for it in advance!

  11. Hi does anyone have any feedback on SkyWriter 3.0? At the previous DZ I was at they used Jumprun which seemed great but we're now at a small DZ in the middle east who just don't have the funds to spend that much on manifest software. Any feedback on any other cheaper alternatives to Jumprun would alos be appreciated. Thanks Don't put off 'till tomorrow what you can do today

  15. Glandu - Free only if what? Of course you need to still need to pay for the jump ticket and packing. Where else are you going to use the rig? Unfortunately the staff packers need to pack it up as we don't know who will be jumping it next. Don't put off 'till tomorrow what you can do today
