Wow, thank you Wil! That is excellent information. Sounds like, when I get ready to do some actual parachuting, I'm going to need to build or buy a real parachute hehehe.

I made some progress on my "dude" yesterday. Will be about 12" tall when complete...now I've just got to find a GI Joe who wants to give his life to the cause...









Thanks again for your help. You are the spot-landing master, right? Cool!
