  1. it will take awhile before we know what happened. something (out of many possible) went wrong on the second most critical stage of the mission. possibly a wrong angle of entrance, speed, or heat shields not working. speaking on behalf of the people of israel, who also have a personal angle on this mission, we are all sad and still praying here. Ori "Carpe diem, quam minimum credula postero."
  2. yes, maybe. and maybe also, if Hitler had finished his job. why not go further? if Germany had won WWII, maybe the US would not be chasing Ossama Bin Laden because there wouldn't have abeen a US anymore... some people are just stupid... "Carpe diem, quam minimum credula postero."
  3. i have about 30 jumps on mine and so far i'm very happy with it. its my first canopy, and i feel i can learn how to fly it safely, and still have fun with it. had a few off heading openings (some with closed end cells) but i mostly blame it on my packing (still testing things). only downside i can think of, is that its a bit more expensive. but.... you only live once O "Carpe diem, quam minimum credula postero."

    "Skydiving"

    yeap me too. i wonder how many more will it take for it to be fixed "Carpe diem, quam minimum credula postero."
  5. actually we did, but they closed all of the stores (about 5) a couple of weeks ago. don't know why, i've spent enough money there to keep them up and running... don't worry, now that i know for sure there is one, i'll find it (or build it myself ) and Kuper, no. the tv doesnt have a SCART (21 pin) input, that would have been easy O "Carpe diem, quam minimum credula postero."
  6. does anybody know if there is a cable/converter that will allow me to connect a standard video output (yellow RCA connector) to an old RF tv input ? my sister got a DVD player and she has an old tv with the old rf antenna input. i'm sure there is something like that but i've been searching in stores like radioshack and so far all i got were puzzled looks and yeah, i know its a skydiving site... but if boobies are ok here, then so is my video cable !!

  7. you did. now you are ok to jump alone and work on things you have to get better at. later on, when you feel better about the way you fly you'll do the rw training and go to the next step. there are always "next steps" to go t O "Carpe diem, quam minimum credula postero."
  8. work slowlty , or as fast as your budget allows you. i got an alti first, then goggles , then gear and helmet. mine is a hawkeye,. not that cheap, but i plan on camera flying later on , and the hawkeye is cool. like everything else, look around and see if you can try some on before you order anything, we all have different heads "Carpe diem, quam minimum credula postero."
  9. take your time and in your next few solo's work on your on. sometimes the fact you have another person (jm) with you, makes you nervous, and you tense up. i had the same problem when i went with mordi on a FF jump to work on my sitfly. i started turning and could hardly stay in my sit. right after the coached jump. everything was fine again. i'm pretty sure you'll do ok on your solos , and a spin is something you can see for yourself (unlike movement forward or backwards.) just remember the basics (pull, pull high enough, pull stable ) next time, look me up before you jump and not after, and i'll try to put you in a good mood... please note that i post this after 4 straight shots of tequila (Mariachi Gold, if you must know) and 3 beers. so ,,, well , you know...

  10. see? told you so... so , how did you like your first (mini) boogie ? O "Carpe diem, quam minimum credula postero."

  16. hmmm, no, i dont have a curly hair, and i usually try to keep some distance from guys with flowers on their shorts i was there and jumped, but i guess we where on alternate loads. anyway, glad to see you are going for AFF5 next time, and i'm pretty sure once "turning" right will not be your main goal, you'll see that everything falls into place... and, here is me, or at least the way i was when i was young and good looking O "Carpe diem, quam minimum credula postero."
