First off nice pics. Second is you must be mentally unstable. Being a pilot in GA I was taught there is no reason ever to jump out of a perfectly good aircraft. Lol. Hope you enjoyed your dive!!!!

So it has a few bullet holes and pieces falling off, so what? It made it to the LZ to pick us up didn't it?

Join the club. Never leave a perfectly good airplane before it lands.
My wife and our daughter are adrenaline junkies. For her 18th birthday Jasmine wanted to sky dive. Debra couldn't let her baby do that alone so both took a one day lesson followed by a tandem jump. The Perris airport with sky diving school is near the railway museum so on a Sunday they went and jumped while I played with trains and streetcars. Starting about noon I watched every jump plane as it took off and the jumpers went out over the airfield wondering if my two favorite "Girls" were part of that group.
Then our oldest son became airborne qualified when he was assigned to the SOG HQ combat engineer company at Ft Bragg and transitioned to Civil Affairs which is part of SOG. They are the nice ones who try to make you a friend before they shoot or blow you up. Then he became a "Path Finder" and now he is one of the Jump Masters of his Army Reserve Civil Affairs unit here in So Calif.

I would never have a hobby, that in order to enjoy it, you must do it with 100% correctness every time.

Damned right! Shut up and get in before it collects more bullet holes. Maybe a couple of them in you.
