Thanks for the update. He was a real posit8ive influence on my life back in 81.

Being Steve is from MT I think the jumper was Hod Sanders, he tried out for the seals but never made it through.

Think you are correct. I vaguely recall hearing that he quit BUD/S. I know he snuck on a few planes though since I jumped with him out at brown field in 86. He wasn't even in the Navy then though. He was a helicopter mechanic I think.

I was in the navy with him. He was a great athlete and even better human being.

I knew who he was when I was in Lodi (mid 80s). I was new in the sport. I'll never forget the Wednesday afternoon Mirror Image let me follow them out of the Beech. Completely blew me away. Gave me a goal that I'm stilling pursuing to this day - RW. Bungee always seemed low key, and a very nice guy. Hope he's in peace.

I had the same experience with him when I met him out at Lake Otay when Mirror Image was training out here. Very nice friendly person.

As I recall, mirror image was waiting for the plane to show up and was told it was not showing up because the insurance was not paid. People were not in a festive mood that day. The mooning incident was on a day when the plane was expected to return, probably on the weekend. Maybe I'm wrong it was 28 years ago. That was a cool plane though.
