  1. I will always fill out my paper log after every jump! I was just saying that this software could back up my paper log just in case it is lost with luggage on a flight or is misplaced somehow! I write everything down in the log book from the dirt dive, people I jumped with, exit, jump, pattern, landing, what the winds were like.................... It will never replace my paper log but I would have nothing if my logbook were lost.

  2. I only have 131 jumps and still have lots to learn! I make it a point to tell people how many jumps I have. Most people are eager to teach you something! So go with it and learn as much as possible! Who cares about the "stigma".

  3. When I started jumping I had people asking to jump with me before I got my license! And I am not even a super-cute blonde. Never pay for someone elses jump just to jump with you. There are plenty of people that will jump with you at a different DZ! Go find those people and stay with it. I have only done one solo since I got my license. Do not give up doing something you love, you just may regret it!

  4. I actually enjoyed reading this post. It was more of a heads up, do your gear check post for me. I do two gear checks before I leave the plane. One just before boarding and one at about 10,000 feet. All kinds of things can happen while you are moving around the plane on the ride up.

  5. Don't brine and fry there will be too much "soaked up" water. Water and oil don't mix! Maybe some people do that but we do not. We inject and fry. Yummy! This year we are having some friends from the DZ over and will also be smoking a turkey that will be brined before hand. I just may use that receipe!

  6. If you are jumping this weekend Sunday seems like the better day. Go to West Point, they are having their Halloween Boogie this weekend. I would suggest Suffolk but it is a bit of a drive from Northern VA. Have fun and stay warm.

    So they say.........Sunday is calling for 68, sunny, and 10 mph winds
