    By looking at the freefall picture it looks like the improper adjustment of the the container's main lift may have help out in the long run keeping the passanger close as possible to the TM after the drogue was deployed. It will be in my mind everytime I hook up another passenger. Lets hope that there is a quick fix that will work for the long term if needed or that this is an one in a million. I beleave this system is one of the best I have seen and used.

    HE SEEMS TO BE RUSHING THINGS A LITTLE. IF HE HAS GOOD FRIENDS THEN THEY WOULD NOT LET HIM JUMP THE 120. THE DZO SHOULD STEP IN IF HE MUST IN ORDER TO SAVE THE PERSON AND THE SPORT. THINK SAFE BE SAFE. IF UNSURE DON'T DO IT OR USE IT

    I suggest that something that has alot of material ( freefly suit Ideal) and use somrthing to help slow you down more (course material). It just keeps us slower people in peace with our fall rates. Keep on going and in time you will fall with the rest of use with ease.

    *** It seems to me that you do fear something and it the me that it is the one thing that we all fear "death" so to me all you have to do is try jumping again. Go for it

    I have been looking for a manual for the Eclipse Tdm but have not been able to find one. Even tried Skydive Monterey Bay sight but everything but the manual. Lets have fun in the worlds largest playground but remember play safe and remember to FLARE!!!

    The only person that can open and reclose without repacking the reserve is the rigger on the pack data card.Otherwise it should be a regular repack.

    Here is the one that is the closest to Kelowna BC. OKANAGAN SKYDIVE ADVENTURESWhich is in Vernon BC. It is small DZ That has great area for jumping. It has a C-182 that is in real good shape. Real bonus is that the jumpers around there are friendly and will open thier hearts and homes for visiter (ie Peolple that were there to fight the fires in aug-sept 2003) I was one of them . What is real great about it is that it is about 20-25 min drive to get there. I hope this helps you out. After that I think the nearest one is in Kamloops which is about 60 + drive from Kelowna. Here is their e-mail [email protected]

    I am wondering who is responsible foe the licensing and training of the Eclipse Tdm instructors
