Why would anybody want to jump out of a perfectly good airplane?:)
For the new guys Al is flying a beautiful 3 rotor powered
home built Velocity.

Re; the 'perfectly good airplane' question that someone posted...
Back when I was flying divers [10+yrs ago] we once had a controller
mutter that very comment under her breath while giving clearance
to climb into class B. My coworker beat me to the punch [he was
in the second C182 following me up] when he replied... 'lady,
you should come see our airplanes'.. they certainly weren't
pretty, but there were well maintained. I always get a smile
when ever I hear someone exclaim about jumping out of a perfectly
good airplane, most of the jumpers we flew claimed they had the
safer ride down. The few who had the misfortune of having to come
back down w/ me, SWORE they had the safer ride down <chuckle.
I've got a few jumps under my belt and will do it again some day,
it will just be a few years until the little ones have left the nest.
Until then I can dream :)
Enjoy!
