Get ahold of an old Parachutist and check the accuracy results from the nationals back in the late sixty's. I think you'll find that the old rounds were very accurate in the hands of the right people. BCA -

Wayne Wahlenmeier (C3363) died in his sleep last night. He was 63 yrs old. Wayne started jumping back in the early 60's at the Citidal. We had many good times and great jumps together during the 70's back at Coolidge and Casa Grande. Rest in peace my old friend, I will miss you. Allen

Do you by any chance remember the jacket that jeannie wore back in the late sixties? The back of it said "jeannie McCombs, a real lady skydiver you crumby bastard" It was so jeannie. BCA

Hi Beatnik, I do believe I still have a manual for the Delta ll. It wasn't with the ParaSled manual that I sent you, so I'll have to dig deeper. I'll let you know if I find it. BCA

lekstrom10k, Most of your observations are correct, but the reserve in Picture #1 was made by "No. Am. Aerodynamics" and it has a Security 26' LoPo with the pilot chute installed not a 24'. BCA

They still have sentimental value.

The sage green harness is a "Greenstar" style harness. I never had a problem with the quick ejectors. Probably just lucky. BCA
