    My daughter Kellie turned 18 this past Friday, so we fulfilled a promise that we made to each other a year or so ago.....that the day she turned 18, we'd jump out of a plane together! :eek2:

    It was as absolute BLAST! Had another gentlemen jump out with us and he video-recorded Kellie all the way down....very cool!

    Also got a roll of 35MM film that the video guy took as well, so I'll post a couple of pics as soon as I get them developed.

    The GS is stll in the midst of it's restoration, so I had to get my speed fix somehow!

    Do you need shorts to jump out of a plane?

    Just jump out, and let it hang out, I say. Get a suntan.

    Naw....the only time I had concerns was for a couple of minutes on the plane ride up to altitude....nothing to do but sit there and think! Got over that in short order, and from then on, there was no hesitation or concerns, believe it or not. I would do it again in a heartbeat, and probably will....no extra shorts needed, Yards! :TU:

    Skydivers like me always tell pilots:

    THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A PERFECTLY GOOD AIRPLANE! :Smarty:

    Anyways I hoep you and your daughter had a blast! My father used to own the dropzone in Kamloops where we lived and my uncle owns the one in Prince George!

    Feels good to have someone as crazy as I am about jumping out of an airplane! Hope she doesn't get hooked though lol! All my gear is worth about $9,000+! It's an expensive sport but what an adreniline rush!
