Another run up to Skydive Dallas, this time SUCCESSFUL! I stayed on the ground and played photographer this time and did not jump. The next time I do jump, I will definitely go with a tandem jump so I can enjoy it. My earlier jumps were part of the Accelerated Free Fall training, so they were both solo.

And work. They keep you so busy during your 60 second free fall you don’t have a lot of time to enjoy it.

We packed up a 172 and were en-route! Due to some early delays, we were JUST IN TIME for the training class for the jumpers. This also delayed them jumping by about an hour, but they were up and going in very short order.

I put some pictures up on Facebook as well as in the gallery. Another soft field takeoff and landing to my credit, and once again, thanks to prevailing southerly winds near the major airports, we were not allowed into the Class B. Oh well.
