You also want the workshop forum and possibly the ePub forum. |

I've jumped out of planes a few times, but never while they were in the air. Always wanted to try that parachute thing, though.

Always wondered why people want to jump out of perfectly good airplanes.

Rumpelteazer - welcome home. It's always so hard to get use to real life's daily routines again.

I had signed up to do parachute with a couple of friends, but they cancelled... I was secretly glad that I could do so too. I have a fear of heights and I wasn't really looking forward to doing a jump. I had enough trouble doing practice ones off the smoke jumpers practice tower. |

My thought exactly! I had a glider pilot friend who asked a military guy whether he should try out the military chute he always wore in the glider - just to see what it would feel like, you know? The guy said said "You don't want to know what it feels like!"
