Title: I Want To Try Sky Diving Post by: KoKoPuf on October 14, 2011, 12:51:46 PM Not sure about the jumping out of the plane part, but the rest sounds like fun! http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/headlines/2011/10/faa-investigating-if-skydiving-sex-stunt-distracted-pilot/ Title: Re: I Want To Try Sky Diving Post by: cbbama99 on October 14, 2011, 12:57:48 PM First confessions about the Lions, now skydiving. Are you planning on leaving this earth soon, KKP? ;)
Title: Re: I Want To Try Sky Diving Post by: SUPERCOACH on October 14, 2011, 01:05:09 PM I see no reason to jump out of a perfectly good airplane. Now if the wing falls off, that is a different matter entirely.

Title: Re: I Want To Try Sky Diving Post by: Coach Hank Crisp on October 14, 2011, 01:26:19 PM I worked with a guy from West Virginia on the Jim Walters Mine projects in the late 1970s. He would skydive for a hobby. All the guys from Alabama gave him a nickname. We all started calling him Fireball!

Now if the wing falls off, that is a different matter entirely. No such thing as "a perfectly good plane." That's why they paid the pilots twice as much to stay in one as they did me, to jump out. 8) Title: Re: I Want To Try Sky Diving Post by: Hannibal Lecter, MD on October 15, 2011, 10:37:55 AM This was not what I was expecting to find in this thread. :-\

Title: Re: I Want To Try Sky Diving Post by: Kupkake on October 17, 2011, 10:34:53 AM Kupkake has NO intention of being there! If he is planning to actually jump, he better take out a very large insurance policy first. As for the latter part of this article - just chalk it up to "dirty old man"! :D
Title: Re: I Want To Try Sky Diving Post by: ricky023 on October 17, 2011, 11:34:47 AM I was an AB Ranger. I had 163 jumps and now I walk with a Walker after my back woreout. My knees are weak and I am sort of paying for what i thought serving.
Now please hear me out jumping was great. The freeiest spirit ever felt in the Air, it is so quiet you can hear your heart beat. Nobody there but you and God. Just be careful to learn your PLF correctly so it don't happen to you like me. OH, PLF"Parachute Landing Fall." Let me know what you think after your first one. RTR! |
