| I can think of a lot of exciting things to do but jumping out of a perfectly good plane is not one of them. I get a kick out of watching the REMAX team jump at the speedway though. |

Who said the airplanes are perfectly good? 
I've got right at 30 skydives right now. I'm still on student status and need about 5 more jumps to get my "A" license. I can however jump by myself right now, if I want. Just can't do formation skydives with other jumpers until I get licensed.  |

Ahhh! The Plano VFW will be doing a group skydive probably in May. Most of the participants are doing tandems. (My wife has done 3 already). The tandem instructors are some of the most experienced and well trained skydivers in the profession. At Skydive Dallas, the TI all have skydives numbering in the 1,000s. The head instructor has over 9,000 skydives and over 3,000 tandem skydives.
You would be in safe hands.  |

| There is no way that I could jump out of a plane. Krystian (6yr old) wonted me to do that parachute thing at Six Flags so I did, Kristian loved it but I will NOT do it again. Dustin (3yr old) did it with Steve and he wonted to do it again. I love the parasail thing that you do behind a boat. (but I was 22 at the time) |
