For a special young lady

A little ditty from Pink Floyd

Anniversary dedication to a wonderful couple

Great build up in this song, with the softness of falsetto. Even though strong.

One of his many famous songs

Afrikaans acapella version of the Lord's Prayer

This is JM Pedro Isix from Portugal and his POV of dropping 2 sticks of jumpers from the C47, Tico Belle

Beautiful view from the rear wing of the C47 Tico Belle. Great to see us coming out the door. I am number 4 of the first stick. Also included is the second stick and the landing of this gorgeous aircraft

360 view of the South African paratrooper group following me out the door at X35 jump school. What an honor to jump out of Tico Belle, which took part in the D-Day operations in 1944

Just a little video showing the drill we go through before we get to jump. Don't worry about the "6 minutes" not elapsing. They are standard call out which are not deviated from. Bottom line, what the jump master says, you repeat vocally and then execute

What not to do when exiting from a Cessna 180. I leaned too far forward on exit and the dive could not be stopped. Trick jumping at it's best

Ankle view of a bad, inverted exit from a Cessna 180, going through the risers and the subsequent (temporary) loss of my GoPro 8. Found it the next day

I had lost the ankle mounted GoPro on a previous jump but was lucky enough to recover it. It fell off again but only upon landing - I guess the mount does not like the jolt

Going out the aircraft in stick 2

Stick 1 exiting the aircraft and next procedures

This landing was a bit hard but all is good

Nice swan dive right through the risers and rigging lines. Interesting ride to say the least. I had the awareness to know to pull my right leg out of the lines before the chute fully deployed. GoPro went flying off the ankle but I did find it the next day. Perfect PLF if I have to say so myself

Wonderful jumping out of this old lady again.

Visited X-35 in Dunnellon, FL to refresh on jumping. Awesome experience there!

Great song from the early 90's

80's 90's music

Covered by a multitude of artists, for me, the version performed by Raul Malo from The Mavericks is just stunning. This is the one I have tried to simulate
