    Falcon

    I just got done doing three jumps on a fairly used falcon 215, each time I barried one of the toggles I would get into a half turn before the canopy nose fairly bad, (scared the shit out of me) leaving me with minor line twist. Now I do take into consideration the thing just might be hooked up wrong, but like I said to my cousin after I got down, im never jumping that thing again. It would be one thing if it just happened once but, every single time I barried(sp?) a toggle it did it. Like I said could be the way it is hooked up, could be too old who knows, Im not a rigger. But other than that it has a nice glide, I'm jumping it at a 1.0 wingloading ration so it does alright, the flare is a little weak on it but I am to say that that is cause from the f111 material. if your looking for a first main go ahead and spend a little extra cash and get a zp canopy. you'll enjoy it much more.
