blackshoe Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 If the parachute malfunctions, bring it back and we'll give you a new one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PassedOut Posted July 26, 2010 Report Share Posted July 26, 2010 I didn't go splat! Well done. In his college days, my middle son and his girl friend organized a sky-diving outing and had several students signed up to go with them. As the date grew closer, the others dropped out one by one. On the big day, only my son and his girl friend actually jumped. They did not splat either, and really enjoyed the experience. The bonus was making fun of their friends who had chickened out. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had a group of 14 people with the average age probably close to 25. Everyone had a great time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackshoe Posted July 26, 2010 Report Share Posted July 26, 2010 I had a room mate in grad school who was into skydiving. One day he came home and told me that one of his buddies had lost control of his chute after he landed, and was dragged to his death. :-( I prefer solid ground. I had enough trouble trying to learn to fly (also an expensive hobby, which is why I had to give it up). 1. Take off, fly around for a while.2. Put on hood, so I can only see the instrument panel.3. Fly around for a while, climbing, diving, turning, etc., all on instruments alone.4. Take off hood.5. Instructor says "Now find the airport". :-) BTW, taking off and flying around are pretty easy. Landing is a bitch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PassedOut Posted July 26, 2010 Report Share Posted July 26, 2010 I prefer solid ground. I had enough trouble trying to learn to fly (also an expensive hobby, which is why I had to give it up). We have a couple of friends with small private planes. For some reason, one likes to invite folks to fly to an airport in another city just to have lunch or a cup of coffee, then fly back home. Seems like a lot of expense and work, but boats can be that way too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackshoe Posted July 27, 2010 Report Share Posted July 27, 2010 I suppose when you like to fly, any excuse is a good one. ;) "A yacht is a hole in the ocean into which you pour money." - Commodore Vanderbilt (I think) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winstonm Posted July 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2010 I would post a pithy, clever reply but I being ostrichized by a group of large, flightless, Australian birds - it's almost enough to make me give up playing the Zamboni.
