terminal_velocity -> RE: Chute Plans? (4/2/2008 9:08:41 AM)

I am gonna buy a plane when i go to arizona for college..Here where i live there really is no place to fly a big enough plane to carry my jumper,Nothing but forest.I mean there is a couple of football fields, but theres main roads right next to them.And when it comes to the matriels,I can get them pretty cheap...I work at a local supplies store.The only thing that is going to put a dent in my pocket are the 25' coiled compression springs with 400 lbs of tourqe that i have coming from europe and the Power winch.
When i told my dad he just looked at me like i was stupid..Honestly I Could not have done it without my uncle.He basicaly came up with the plans.But with those springs that have 400 lbs of tourqe, I think thats plenty of power to launch a 3lb skydiver.I think it will fun,Plus i already placed the order for the springs and the winch so theres no turning back know...
Thnx
I will keep you guys updated..if all goes well it will be built in about a month and a half.I will post a video of it on here for you guys to see first.
Oh yeah,I am planning on going to the 2008 skydive rally,Hope to see you guys there.
Jake.....[:D]
