  1. same the time and effort and get rid of the ipod and get a creative player SO this one time at band camp..... "Of all the things I've lost I miss my mind the most."
  2. I never have broken in any of my rifles (Unless the manufacture has specified anything particular). I've always done a good inspection over all then just shoot normal. I never really do any heave rapid fire that would over heat the barrel any way. I do shoot in all-weather conditions so can be harsh on equipment that way. New barrels and the metals and chroming they use now days should never give you any real problems. Breaking in like you say is a difference of opinion but each their own. SO this one time at band camp..... "Of all the things I've lost I miss my mind the most."
  3. a request I'm more then happy to follow SO this one time at band camp..... "Of all the things I've lost I miss my mind the most."

  5. He said mentaly challenged not hygienically challrnged That sounds like a great thing being done giving those who are very capable just in different forms and willing to work the opportunity to prove and build their sklls SO this one time at band camp.....

  6. Thanks for the information! Once I get everything ready and do a few trial runs up to, but not including, putting the plate in place, I'll start having fun. Right now, it's all planning and associated busy-work. Any reason why I can't try something a bit more interesting than coins the first go-round? I'd like to use polished rocks for the first shot. can use pretty much anything as long ass it has good fine details this will help if your having a vibrations moving the plate issue. (And you will at some point lol) I had one ruin due to the frnace comming on and the vibration on the floor from it. one my son so excited he could't stay still lol and bounding on the floor (He's 7,) and bumping the table. I then moved to the basment on the concreet floor and turned off the furnace switch for the short period to do the capture. I also used one table to hold the item and the plate and another for the laser and the card I use as a shutter. SO this one time at band camp..... "Of all the things I've lost I miss my mind the most."
  7. Yes you willl need a different plate to do green as PFG-03M is red only, VRP-M is green plate. Luck you, quite a few plates to play have fun. SO this one time at band camp..... "Of all the things I've lost I miss my mind the most."
  8. The media wants the quick sensational story sell and then they move one to the next one. They like the easy targets. SO this one time at band camp..... "Of all the things I've lost I miss my mind the most."
  9. Easy the conservatives get hit with it all the time when stuff like this happens because they publicly use a number of things in elections to say there a morally superior then the liberals to get elected such as their family values, God and a number of other things as the basis of their platform. When you publicly use these things and say them to get elected and then get caught doing the opposite of every thing you claim to be it’s a pretty clear and easy target to hit on.

  10. Ya I like how sony played the numbers to includ PS3 as part of the BD players sold compared to HD DVD Hardware . The other thing was most current DVD manufacturers could change to HD DVD with little cost and changes in equipment but unfortunately thats not the case with BD SO this one time at band camp..... "Of all the things I've lost I miss my mind the most."
  11. so it appears the guy has always been a dick not just towards skateboarders. At least it shows he was consistant that it wasn't biased towrds just skateboarders SO this one time at band camp..... "Of all the things I've lost I miss my mind the most."
  12. What track record are you speaking of? The one where CSPA has a lower the average incident rate then most other FIA countries per number of jumps? The track records where Transport Canada allowed other organizations to conduct student training and that the majority of incidents and coroners reports that are driving this are form non CSPA member drop zones. Transport Canada allowed the situation to develop where it is today out of their lack of understanding of the sport and oversight now they are scrambling to cover their own ass and now the CSPA gets tossed in with it. The CSPA didn’t cause this and they governed as they seen fit. Not everybody may agree with some of the decisions and changes but they are continuing to evolve. The CSPA has made many changes to the student and coaching program that others are copying I think that a great thing considering that this is a Volunteer organization. An you CAN NOT compare the USPA with 31,000 members X $49.00 Gives them $1,519,000 of funds to work with, to CSPA’s 2,200 members X $80.00 $176,000 of working funds.

  13. No Blue Ray is still a scam Sony announced the next change in the format and that 1st gen players will not be able to support the new features mainly the online component for the DRM protection scam oops meant scheme. Only the Play station 3 can support that so even if you own a Blue Ray player it still sucks to be you as well. Thanks Sony for letting the consumers decide instead of paying off other studios to go with you preparatory format. SO this one time at band camp.....

  14. lol that could be a new reality show , "When food fights back!" SO this one time at band camp..... "Of all the things I've lost I miss my mind the most."
  15. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Agreed. Even if civilian schools are still allowed to train - but only with Canadian Army methods - it would be a disaster. No civilian student is going to submit himself to two weeks worth of push-ups just to be allowed to jump for two days. I sincerely doubt if the Canadian Army has learned anything about teaching parachuting since the 1960s. On the other hand, if Canadian Search and Rescue Technicians wrote the syllabus, I would cheerfully follow it. Master Corporal (retired) Rob Warner, CD, BA, etc. Canadian Army Basic Paratrooper Wings West German Army (Bronze) Paratrooper Wings Sorry I would disagree with that, with the late Adoption of Ram air Parachutes and the lack of free falls skills (most of their jumps are static line) the low number required to stay current. The SAR Techs use a parachute as a tool to get to the scene of where they do their work. They use a lot of CSPA guide lines for their sybilias. The fact that the Canadian forces need to use out side contractors on a regular basis to conduct their Military free fall program leads me to believe they do not have the extended expertise to in all aspect of student skydiving training. The military is slow to adopt emerging changes as they rely on proven consistent training methods and equipment. I would not want them to be the one's to create the training curriculum as for two points I've already mentioned, plus they are not early adopters in the use of new equipments or techniques, and they do not jump enough in a given year compared to many instructors in the civilian side of things. The other is their use of only a few aircraft frames that do not compare to much of the civilian aircraft in use for skydiving. I’ve spent 9 years in the CF and they train well in some areas of expertise but I would say skydiving is not one of them. http://www.admfincs.forces.gc.ca/admfincs/subjects/cfao/050-07_e.asp This is what the CF regulaations look like in regards to Sport Parachuting They do NOT reconize any other orgnization other then the CSPA Here are some of the highlights. PARTICIPATION4 c. individual membership with the CSPA is required prior to taking part in sport parachuting activities with an approved sport parachuting club. CONTROL7. All club activities shall conform with the rules and regulations of the CSPA. 8. Control shall be maintained by: a. the operation of a club training program based on current CSPA operation, training and safety publications; b. compliance with current "Basic Safety Regulations" issued by the CSPA; and c. the establishment of any additional regulations the base or station commander deems necessary. USE OF CIVILIAN CLUBS OR CENTRES IN CANADA9. In Canada, occasions may arise when an individual member of the CF or an authorized CF Sport parachuting club wishes to participate with or at a civilian parachuting club or centre. In this event, the procedure to be followed by the individual or club and the commanding officer (CO) is as follows: a. the individual(s) or club shall complete Part I of Annex A and submit it to the CO; b. the CO will complete Part II and forward the form to the CSPA; c. the CSPA will conduct an investigation, determine if the club or centre is registered with the CSPA and complete Part III; and d. the completed form will then be returned to the CO by the CSPA indicating whether the civilian club or centre is suitable for use by members of his unit. 10. Under no circumstances should a CO authorize, as part of a CF sport parachuting club program, use of a civilian sport parachuting club or centre not approved by the CSPA. EQUIPMENT11. 12. All repairs and modifications to club equipment and the periodic repacking of reserve parachutes shall only be carried out by a CSPA qualified rigger holding the appropriate CSPA rigging license. 13.

Publications concerning administration matters between the CSPA and individual member clubs, and the publications referred to in paragraph 8 are supplied free of charge by the CSPA when an individual club joins the Association. Such publications shall not be procured at public expense. LIAISON OFFICER TO CSPA17. The Department of National Defence Liaison Officer (DND LO) to the CSPA is appointed by the Director Land Operation and Training (DLOT), normally for a term of office of two years. On behalf of DPERA, the DND OPI for sport parachuting activities organized and conducted in accordance with 50-7, the DND LO has authority for direct liaison between DPERA and the CSPA on matters concerning CF sport parachuting. Where necessary, particularly in matters of safety, the DND LO, with the approval of DPERA and the applicable command, may liaise directly between the CFSA and the CO of a unit having a CF sport parachuting club.

  16. Depressing is being part of the titanium club and watching every one else jump while healing. Take a good look at bill Vons downsizing checklist http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/safety/detail_page.cgi?ID=47 I’ve had great landing and was looking to speed up my down sizing but more jumps and his list made me re-evaluate some of those thoughts. I’m at a 1.1 WL with a 190 and gland I did take advice of others and stay with a 190 for now. SO this one time at band camp..... "Of all the things I've lost I miss my mind the most."
  17. not really your paying for the licensing of the patent unlike some other products where you can make continued profits for a long period of time due to volume of sales you cant exactly do that with a wind tunnel as there can only be a finite number in a given market can support plus that they protect your market area from not selling another tunnel in your area to another business. Don’t forget their continued cost of R&D and engineering that is going on giving us even bigger tunnels then before. SO this one time at band camp.....

  22. Where is the choice for both? Either is enjoyable to me, I don't mind the winter at all (It also helps when you enjoy it and others are in a miserable mood to it and being in a good mood about the next big snowfall just rubs it in even more ), Snowmobiling, Snowboarding, Sledding with the kids, Winter camping Snow forts. I still do skeet shooting in the winter, not much snow to shovel (Helps when you have a riding mower with a blower attachment lol) Summer had lots more jumping obviously and 100 degree weather suits me just as fine as the subzero. The only part I don't like is when I'm in Northern Ontario and the black fly season mosquitoes are noting compared to those little bastards. SO this one time at band camp.....

  23. I wouldn't let him off that easily I would wait till he was near deat then bring him in to a nice warm place to painfully thaw out befor going back in to the snow bank. SO this one time at band camp..... "Of all the things I've lost I miss my mind the most."
  24. I would agree, good vibes, instructors and staff. well maintained gear. Great parties. The only South Westren Ontario DZ that has a full time Otter in the summer (182 for the off season or extreamly slow days) Check them out I don't think you'll be dissapointed.
