  1. I meant I'm not really the great guy in response to Chuck. Don't want it to look like I said that about either Windsor or Scotty. They are really great guys and I miss them and the DZ life.
  2. Still watching from afar. Miss you Chuck, and the rest. That day out of Keystone was one of the most memorable in the 27 years since I first lobbed out the door. We watched the sun rise over Palatka from in the plane, jumped and the sun went behind the earth and rose again under canopy. I think Windsor had a mal somewhere down the east coast and used Scotty Carbone's rig for the rest of the trip. Not really such a great guy. Andy
  3. Read the requirements on the "A" license card, If you can not meet the requirements do not sign the card. Even if you instruct at a big DZ you can let the student spot, give corrections and exit other wise you are robbing the student of an ability and forging the proficiency card. Looking out the door on a jump run just does not cut the mustard. If the DZ will not do it properly then they shuold not issue any licenses! I am dissapointed by D license holders who have never really spotted a jump run. Andy.
  4. If you are undecided- please put me in the running. I clean up real good. Andy
  5. HA,HA HA. Always log off when done on the computer in the bar at Z'hills. I never even saw this thread untill I got some strange pm's. Really funny as I have no idea who did it. And I do need some loving but I think I am happy staying with girl love- Bring on the hair-pies!
  6. You only have to wear a dual container single harness (tso'd) with a reserve (tso'd) and in date if you intend doing a parachute jump. They may get any survivors for public endangerment.
  7. Chris at Z Hills got a DCR HC1000 and is not happy with it as it cannot handle the burble especially headdown. I think it is another case of the 3 chips fighting with each other- harmonics etc
  8. It would be against a whole bunch of FAR's but it is possible. First it should be Garret powered not P&W (exhaust is only on the right side not both sides.) Second the hopper has to be washed out very well, especially if it is used for pesticide. Remove the baffels and the lid. Ride up in the hopper and at altitude climb out on the left side and hook your left toe over the leading edge so you can get your hand to the leading edge and then your right hand and you will be kneeling facing the prop with your hands on the leading edge. then shimmy out left all the way to the end of the wing and jump off the end of the wing so you can not hit the tail or ailerons. It is very obvious where the structure in the wing is so you do not damage anything. Also don't do it as it is against a whole bunch of rules
  9. Peter Lawson, Mike Teague, Mike Mullins, Bram Clement. And I am very proud of Jeff. Oh and how could I forget BOB SINCLAIR.
  10. E mail Mike Alverez mailto:[email protected] Or look up the other DZ's on the DZ data base. They dont read the forums too often. Legit avation in M:exico is very tightly controlled. Andy
  11. Some of the movies I worked on (A Far off Place, Bopha, Tarzan) hoped for a real theater release. Most however were for the cable and more importantly the video stores in the middle east and the far east. The market for B grade action/ war movies is insatiable. One production company took un-used footage from 6 other movies and spent 3 weeks shooting links between scenes and released a piece of garbage that people still rent.
  12. Yes this was worse than the Chuck Norris movi, I did stunts, special effects and was the safety officer on this and a few other other bad films.
  13. Sorry I fell asleep it was so bad. It was "Operation Delta Force"
