So was anybody in the air last weekend? Man, it was nice out! And today looks even better! Unfortunately, next weekend is not looking good.  Oh well, that's spring in Chicago for ya.

I'm not ready anyway. It's crazy how you think you have so much time and then before ya know it you don't! At least I got a jumpsuit. But I still need to pack my main, set up my Neptune, watch my safety videos, and get new goggles. And I have a damn final exam to study for this weekend, yuck.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to seeing everybody again soon!  Let's keep our fingers crossed for awesome April weather!!

Weather permitting I hope to jump out of some kind of vehicle this weekend!  Hey, what is the protocol for getting current?  I havent had an opportunity all winter to travel to jump and I'm sure others haven't either....

I think I'm gonna pass on this weekend. Wet ground and temps in the 40's do not sound like good jumping weather.

I think the general re-currency rule is that you do a solo for your first one back. Don't worry, many of us are just as rusty as you.  There's going to be a "Safety Day" Q&A in the skylounge on Sunday morning. If you're rusty, it'd probably be a good idea to be there!

Hey, there are no currency requirements for jumping from my car. If all else fails, I can drive down the runway really fast for ya.

Geesh Betsy, you could at least let him jump outta your pimpin golfcart.  That would be way more fun than a car.

Well Betsy.... seeing as how you have my gear ........ its lookin like the car or the golf cart is gonna be the way to go ... I have experience in jumping out of both cars and golf carts,  although the alcohol level in my blood has to be at a certain level in preparation...... wind direction, speed, and temperature are not important.....
