The skydiver is the only sane one of the bunch. Stepping out of a
Casa-212, at 12,500 feet, with 20 of your friends with you and
turning 4 or 5 points. Dumping the main at 2,000 and swooping in to a
perfect one point landing. Only thing better is the last load of the
day dumping the main at 6,000 reaching into your jumpsuit and pulling
out a beer or two and enjoying the peaceful ride. I sure do miss
skydiving.
Land on your head once too often?
Actually no, I never landed on my head from a skydive. In fact I never
had to use my reserve, 1700 jumps all landing on a main canopy. Do you
want to read the newspaper articles written about me and my skydiving?

It's so refined and cultured to wish death upon someone. I'll bet Bert
has records of his jumps, unlike your many lies.
I have newspaper articles, national organizations and international
organizations that can verify my jumps. I even taught the current USPA
Director of Safety & Training how to skydive.- Hide quoted text -

Ever go to Zephyrhills, FL?

Spent many a winter and spring at Z-Hills, Deland was to serious. They
usually had at least three DC-3's with Casa 212's, Skyvans and other
assorted aircraft. My favorite jump plan was the DeHaviland Caribou. The
one plan I Wish I had jumped from was the 727.- Hide quoted text -

My dad is facinated by the new winged shoots. He was in charge of a
huge equipment packing facility and school during WWII in the asian
theater 45-47... But he only jumped when it was required.
