A true pilot

[burhead1]

True in the sense he is just a nut case

reminds me of my first parachute jump, pilot came out with shorts, t shirt, sandals and a bag of cheetos he threw on the dash and a can of coke between his knees. I had never flown at that point and dam he scarred me LOL

If you want to embed a vid, it can't have a "&feature=related" in the link... at least I think that's the trick.

Jumper dumping is well, different:



I am sure this photo will anger and enrage many here.

My first time skydiving was tandem of course.... meet the guy and it looks like a cat attacked his face, I thought nothing of it.

10 minutes later, airborne with this guy strapped to my back.

he says to me "I bet you were wondering how I got all these scratches on my face, I has a chute failure yesterday and landed in a sugar cane field.... I couldnt tell you that on the ground though HAHAHA"

was tandem of course

Why do you say that? Mine was not, they threw the pilot chute out for me but it was not tandem. There are places around you can still jump your first time solo.

Asking for what? I first saw his dad do his act at the Abbotsford air show in 68 or 69. The one where the Aileron falls off. Thats 42 years of these stunts.
