  2. Because whether you know about offenders or not, they are in your area....or you should assume so since it is highly likely. For those of you in Illinois, you can check ==> http://www.isp.state.il.us/sor/frames.htm
  3. in todays Chicago Tribune ==> 24 addicts
  4. I think you were addressing Drew directly but - that's a pretty bold, blanket statement to make., especially on a public forum. Is the gear in use at Hinckley that bad !?! I have to agree with the JS statement though. . . oddly enough I was looking at some video this weekend and what caught my attention was JS's closing flap - flapping in the breeze - on climbbout.
  5. If you get a chance, rent the previous season's episodes. In my opinion, it's been good from the beginning!! I've watched it from the start and it's the one show I'll stay home to watch in real time!
  6. That was semi-predictable but funny!! I had to laugh when Jack was playing with the wires and Audrey's husband says to Jack "you're kidding" and then ZZZZZTT, ZZZZZZTT (NO, Jack wasn't kidding) http://www.fox.com/24

  9. you gonna just sit there . . . litle doggie . . . or are you gonna bite?!? You guys having tryouts or do you just need the slot filled? Me? - hopefully I'll be jumping with Good Vibrations this season!!
  10. It's not a good picture of the position but it might better explain it for you. http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?do=post_view_flat;post=629304;page=2;sb=post_latest_reply;so=ASC;mh=25; another link here

  12. Airspeed & NSL tunnel camp videos here
  13. Robbie - well written, thanks for sharing your thoughts!!!
  14. Rumor has it that Tony & Michelle MIGHT make an appearance this season. If you don't watch "24"...you don't know Jack
  15. In addition to the official ABC Lost site . . . J. J. Abrams sponsors a website dedicated to the show http://www.thefuselage.com Everyone on the plane was running away from something and they come to terms with their "demons" while on the island. [ChasingBlueSky] The purgatory idea works.
  16. What canopies have 6 or 8 cells? I've flown a 5-cell (Strato-Star). Does a 7or 9-cell with an end cell closed count?
  17. Ha ha, I totally forgot about that place. . .have driven past it many times! Ummm, and you know of its wherabouts because...??? no tell motel

    a pleasant surprise was the comparison showing a skydiver's bootied legs (in the wind tunnel) and the bird's tail.
  19. - Like a Rolling Stone - Jimi Hendix (Dylan) - Cocaine - Eric Clapton (J. J. Cale) - Pick Up The Pieces - Candy Dulfer (AWB) - Talkin Loud and Sayin Nothin - Living Colour (James Brown)
  20. 1 - 2 hours average Chicagoland Skydiving Center - Hinckley, Illinois (56.71 miles) Skydive Chicago - Ottawa, Illinois (65.80 miles) Skydive Midwest Sturtevant, Wisconsin (68.82 miles) haven't jumped there yet Sky Knights SPC East Troy, Wisconsin (82.92 miles ) There used to be a dz 20-30 minutes away.
  21. Sorry to hear about your injury. If it's any consolation. . . better now than at the beginning of the season!
  22. I'm not a rigger but my own personal, biased opinion is that . . . NO, flat packing won't harm the canopy. I've flat packed EVERY "square" parachute that I've owned with no problems. (and yes, I've seen the Aerodyne packing video)
