Default Finally got to do some jumping! pic's of the day

Well the weather sort of cooperated for us to get some more jumps in this year. Here are a few pics of the first jump.

Looking good and scale. I haven't left a good plane in a while but plan on getting back to it when the river goes down. My feild is in the Bonnet Carre Spillway and the river has about 12 feet of water on the runway now!! Nice pics.

The weather has been interesting this year to say the least. We have only had the divers out twice, this guy now has 9 flawless jumps under his belt.

We have video of him leaving the aircraft, but our camera angle was off a bit and you only see him for a split second. We will make the adjustments our next time out and get better video to post.

Dave; Nice action shots of jumper, will you be at Muncie this year?. My computer has been down for over a month now and have just started to get things going again. Juan probably thinks I did not like him anymore. hope to see everyone in Sept.

Well it looks better to attend this year than the last several. If I can get my son to come along we will most likely be there. My brother lives in Maryland now so he will not be able to attend, being military he goes were they want him to be. Atleast we have actually been doing some jumping this year, which is better than the past couple.

We took some video of the divers leaving the plane as well on this Saturday, I will post them as soon as we cut out the boring part. We got 4 fairly good videos of the divers release and chute deployment, plus you can see in the video of how high we really are on a few of the jumps.
