  1. Perhaps try for the red-wings? Max amount of time to get those should be ~28 days.
  2. Felt it here in Atlanta as well, about 2-3 seconds of slight shaking.
  3. ... and as expected, no DNA match in Marla Cooper claim: http://www.cnn.com/2011/US/08/09/fbi.db.cooper.dna/index.html
  4. An unsubstantiated claim. Yeah yeah, I know, don't feed the trolls...
  5. Thank you so much for the wonderfully inspirational anecdote. I did read all of it, and could feel your excitement!
  6. Hurm. I can't really help with the fear aspect, but for your other issue, It sounds like there could be some jealousy problems. Maybe he's worried that you're going to get caught up in the random hookup culture of some DZs. Have you reassured him that your jumping with other instructors and more experienced jumpers has nothing to do with him, and that you are only trying to be the best and safest that you can be? Maybe ask him that if (for example) he were going to take Nascar racing lessons, wouldn't he want to learn from the absolute most experienced drivers available to teach him?
  7. Exactly. Just keep changing the number at the end of the url and you'll see the very same thing for another phobia.
  8. Thank all of you for your service. Hooah!
  9. I'd also go for the 1280x960, given only those two options you gave. I would also like to echo the sentiments of previous reply, if you get an LCD you won't have to worry about refresh rates, but you WILL have to worry about response time. If you do go that route, the lower the millisecond response the better.
  10. don't forget to arch smooth canopy opening base leg final flare
  11. Hey Hans, between the forecasted winds I saw when I woke up and my lingering sinus infection, I wasn't going to come down. I'm hoping to see you guys this Saturday, weather permitting! - Andreas
