Anyone recongize these old Idaho jumpers?
FooFoo replied to steve1's topic in Skydiving History & Trivia
Fred's right (Hi dude) the N number - I looked back. I wasn't flying the "transfer" - was there though. I was low man on the pilot pole back then. I believe I remember that it was Lee that made the transfer - right? Out the door, out the leading edge to the wingtip, then over to that moving target of a vertical stab. After a couple attempts, success. Crazy shit is right. Haven't seen that video in many, many moons. I think the last time I pushed you out (Ted) was a moonlit night over Spirit Lake - the full moon lit up the canopies - one of my favorite visions. Very surreal. Might also have been a night formation load over Joe Alby stadium.... scary shit too. Richardo is still in Athol. We talk once in a while. Need his e-mail? -

I thougth it was 501 we called "SNIB" but could be wrong. Here's a photo of the other AT-11 (Glass nosed beach). Can't recall its tail number. I also have photos of WP and 32E if anyone needs some of those. -

OK - guess the poster has to be under 200K.... wonder if the number still works. Rozo or Frankie used to answer - sometimes it was Richardo. -

OK, you guys got me going through my stuff. Here's an oldy. Rozzo's paracenter poster. I suppose Joy was the artist. I suspect I collected this around 1980-1981. -

This is killing me - I have to chime in... been reading this thread for an hour now and have tears in my eyes. I pushed all you guys out of airplanes it seems. Living at Athol the three Beaches are 501 (AT-11) of course, 761WP and 132E. In 1978 I started flying with Taylor then got sucked into OZMO and lived in the A-Frame. Left Athol in 1991. Lee Oman (Namo) and I (Foo) flew the majority of the loads in Athol, and MANY in Spokane, from about 83. As soon as I saw Dr. Pete's name in this thread, I couldn't stand it, had to say something. I'm headed for the old albums.
