If'n the Para pride kicks in ... He'll never admit that he's done his last one yet.

I'm not so sure. I think you need to be an over confident youngster to make the audacious assumption that the parachute will open after you jump out of the airplane. |

Airborne ain't an old boys club y'know ... 'tis a Religion. I'm fast approaching 77, but I'm ready to go again tomorrow. The biggest adrenalin rush ever is that first static drop ... especially when the dispatcher thinks it's funny to shout "GO ... Come back!" Some guys actually tried to climb back up the lines.

And to your point John, I understand George H.W. Bush made his final jump after he had been using a wheel chair for a while.

One day I'll be allowed tell of how we re-launched the Delta-2s to fly out of a few hotspots.

Always volunteered for the Saturday "Fun Jumps", would like to go again. The Saturday "Fun Jumps" meant a Chinook helicopter and daylight to see by, oh, and 3-thousand feet up. Here is an old photo taken on a Saturday Fun Jump. I do miss the sight/feeling you get when looking down and there isn't anything under your feet for hundreds of feet. Mike |
