    Speed...

    I usually drive 10-20 mph over the posted limit; more if I think I can get away with it; think it has a lot to do with all the auto racing my father and I watched together as a child and the fact he used to let me shift gears as he drove down the middle of the road, as we would both make racing noises with our mouths and pretend we were pitted against the other drivers....also mebbe the old kiddie movies of me in a baby carriage being shoved along back and forth quick enough to almost throw me out of the carriage had a hand in....?? Hmmmmm.... Faye. I'm really very gentle, no matter what my kung-fu teacher says... he is giving me a reputation I do not deserve!
  7. Guys, according to an email we received on 7-31 from the owner of 2K composites, (we are waiting for an overdue delivery on my better half's FF2) the company making Stroboframe is in financial difficulties and cannot be contacted. John is going to build his own frame, and as of this time, we are STILL waiting for the overdue helmet,. Brokeneagle.

  9. not before 1000 feet. If for wx reasons (or any other) we have to ride the plane down, after we land and are done taxiing back to the loading area.
  10. Quote. . . . The Monty Python Thread !!! and shall be cast into the Pit of Eternal Stench. (or is too young to remember them). Hmmmm, and I thought the Pit of Eternal Stench originated in the David Bowie movie vehicle,The Labrynth... perhaps not- 'It's just a flesh wound-' 'Come back here, you coward- I'll bite yer legs off!'

  12. Mmmmmm, german chocolate sounds wonderful- can't get it here, tho I like lime sherbet, dipped out with Frito chips- and I don't even partake of the wacky weedus.... Faye. I'm really very gentle, no matter what my kung-fu teacher says... he is giving me a reputation I do not deserve!
  13. I'm there, and forwarding this link to jumpers not on dz.com- what a worthy cause! Brokeneagle. I'm really very gentle, no matter what my kung-fu teacher says... he is giving me a reputation I do not deserve!
  14. I would hope there would be no such thing as an instructor getting tired of questions that novices can think of; hopefully the ones you have will all agree on that- and as a couple of fine folk here have already said, it is always better to prepare for every scenario you can possibly think of; then you will already have a plan, just in case it were to happen to you- in a hard pull situation, try once, twice, then go for the reserve-- remember, the most important thing for you to do in any skydive is to PULL--
  15. yes I'm really very gentle, no matter what my kung-fu teacher says... he is giving me a reputation I do not deserve!
