Hi Wil,

I was just thinking about RC skydiving videos... It could be a great idea to try to install a CCD recorder at the head of your Skydiver This seems feasible, as our friends from the 'Aerial photography' section show us everyday...

Hi Strykaas, Its been done and it was incredible. Im setting a camara up on my jumpers side and it will pivot up and down. As soon as we get it done i hope Wil Jones will set it up so we can email it or put it on the CD.

Hi Guy's and Gal's,
Well here we are again!! Another year is almost gone since Joe Noll 2003. The responce from us being at Joe Noll 2003 was so good Ive decided instead of doing a spring Rally at this time we should focus on putting on a big demo at Joe Noll 2004 at least Fri. and Sat.. I'm going to contact the guys who wanted to do the TV spot on R/C Skydiving and see what they think. This is the ultimate place to get R/C Skydiving out to the modeling community. What I would really like to see is a R/C Skydiving booth set up under our 18' x 30' tent with all the guys who are producing Skydivers working together to promote R/C Skydiving. Last year only one drop was made at half time and we were swamped for the next two days answering questions at our skydiving booth. If we can make a mass drop ( I will have the 4 to 6 man drop plane done!!! Maybe even two ) we can even try for a record. Who has ever made a mass drop of radio control skydivers. Maybe even Jim Boone can come with his four man drop plane. 12 to 16 skydivers in the air all at once!! Just think of the pile-up on the landing spot!!!!

Well what do you think??? May Joe Noll -- July Wil Jones Rally Let me know!!!!!!!! Who Can Come???? Ken

Ken,

I would love to, but actually I'm in France !

Neverthelss, I think RC skydiving will gain popularity, and showing what we are able to do today may speed up things, definitely. These Big Shows are THE opportunity to do so.

Hi,

Since you live in France perhaps you could attend the German Championships in Kirberg

(Internationale Deutsche Meisterschaft Fallschirmspringen des DMFV in Hünfelden-Kirberg)

They will be held August 20-23, 2004

I attended in 2000 and had a great time.

Hi
R/C skydivers are more popular in Europe than here in the US.

Here are some sites that might interest you:

http://www.freifaller.de/ (this site will show the 2004 schedule in Europe, hopefully you can
read German)

http://www.paramax.de/ (this is the site for the MIKE jumpers)

http://frisch.flugmodellbau.de/index.html (this is the site of Alexander Frisch, who built a
Wilga jump plane for me)

I hope you will enjoy the sites - Paul
