Purple and yellow one is a Next Century Tandem Blue and black one is a smaller Next Tandem (340 reserve?) Yes. Lord Lucan is the prime suspect as he was seen riding Shergar in the vicinity. Skydiving Fatalities - Cease not to learn 'til thou cease to live

Fair point(s).

Wow - now doing THAT took some real balls! I hope you at least DL'd it to a segregated drive/location and scanned it 1st - at the very least before executing it. Dude with NO PROFILE, NO POSTS, NO HISTORY - NO NOTHING comes on out of nowhere and says "click my link here" ...and a bunch of us apparently do? - - - Not really "dude". I decompiled it, and checked the script. It was fine. Do you think I would have posted it if I hadn't? Or left this thread here if it was not topical?

error 404 - file not found Hmm, the URL in the page is slightly different now. Maybe it changes every time. Still, using the slightly different URL responds with a 404 error. Maybe that's my the box is white most of the time. Skydiving Fatalities - Cease not to learn 'til thou cease to live

I got it to work by loading the SWF directly http://dl020.zshare.net/stream/8f1bc83870b109d8f956cd148764336a/1292377960/83929226/wingsuit.swf Skydiving Fatalities - Cease not to learn 'til thou cease to live

Never underestimate what a student will do despite being briefed! Seated exits from Porters are tricky as the legs are already presented forward. Porters are also trickier due to the low run in speed and you need to work to maintain authority. You can see the student straightens and widens his legs out in front of him even more so a fraction before exit. The instructor seems oblivious to this (don't know if it is intentional or not). Assuming the student was briefed to have has knees bent and legs between the instructor's, the instructor could have waited until the students legs were in a better position before exiting (although that's not easy with the step). I brief my students that if they feel me tapping their thighs with my hand or their ankles with my feet it means legs back. With a Porter's low run in speed it would be very easy to actually tell the student in the door to get his legs back. But sitting on the edge of a plane for the first time does weird things to people and they often don't respond. Perhaps even leg locking them to make sure they are in the right position. Or the ultimate is to just not go if you are not happy, get back in the plane. Depends how the student was on the ground or in the plane on the way up. Having said that, the instructor didn't make the situation worse. He has a good arch, works it to get stable and doesn't throw his drogue until he is. It's easy to second guess setting at desk but there does look like the was a point where the drogue could have been thrown ealier, but it's a diffiult call to make in a split second, which is why it is better to wait until controlled stability. But then again, it could've gone a lot worse if the instructor wasn't working it or just unlucky, and throwing the drogue earlier could have prevented a much worse situation.

I think this was the original discussion about that video. It's an An-28 I think, and not a Skyvan, but I think it's the same one. Skydiving Fatalities - Cease not to learn 'til thou cease to live

Strangely it is 800 for tandem and 1000 for AFF in the UK, and 16 years of age to start learning. A comparison of all countriewous/states requirements would be interesting

Drew Cochis used to take photos with a hand held SLR all the time. He never looked through the view finder, kept the camera by way of a lanyard on is left wrist, and snapped away. He has whole photo albums full of these photos. And I don't mean a disposable camera. I mean a real, hard body SLR.

Footage looks very similar to wingsuit perspective footage. This isn't wingsuiting, canopy flying or even directly human (should this be in Wingsuit, Canopy, General or even BASEJumper.com?) but it's fantastic footage. http://vimeo.com/16604842 This would make a great tool for scouting out proximity flights, both wingsuiting and speed flying. Even scouting for new exit points! Skydiving Fatalities - Cease not to learn 'til thou cease to live
