I figured we would start around 9-9:30 we would end things around 4:30-5 or when ever everybody has had enough. We are having the steak dinner around 6. You guy's are staying for the dinner I hope?

very basic, right arms pulls down, or left arm pull down, (both for steering) or both arms pull down together for flaring and breaking. Also some have seperate controls to release the parachute.

That pilot's job is easy, climb as high as you can as fast as you can and hit the release!

Dave - My skydiver glued together very well - I am really impressed how well that material takes CA!

Did you get my order for the replacement torso parts and the message about my damaged battery? Your website seems to be acting weird...

(Sorry to post this in this thread - but I need my diver in top shape for the event!!!)

You can go to our website www.corksfield.org go to the photo gallery and then look at Kentucky 2007. There are some good pictures there.

Something smells fishy in Ohio![>:] We have not heard much about Paul R.'s secret weapon Jules sent him from Belgium. Nor have we heard anything but sad tales about practice jumping at home to get ready for the rallyeveryone (including me) says they have very little practice and can barely hit the runway!! With me it's true but I will bet a lot of you guys have been practice jumping a bunch but just poor mouthing your results to sucker us in to thinking we might have a chance to win something!!!! AM I RIGHT!!!

I have a feeling the competition will be fierce and the scores closeexcept for me I have 15th place all tied up!

Ya'll better watch out for them REDNECKS!

Jim: Did you ever hear so much hype about how bad they are doing and then when they get there !! they are almost like US. Good thing chutes come down are most of US could not even hit the ground. Looking forward to seeing everyone at the Corks field .
