Should AdmiralKird jump out of a plane?

[Spider John]

Only if he can do so without shrieking like a little girl.

What about the middle of a nice calm day, attached to an experienced jumper, in a position that makes landing in the specified landing field highly probable after a couple hours of training (but attached to an experienced jumper)? AKA the exact situation millions of first time jumpers do are exposed to every year.

Yes, that would be a good situation. Would there be any wind?

I voted for "Why are there 2 skydiving threads in one day".

Of course there will be wind. There is always wind up that high. The jump pro can control the parachute to account for it and still land exactly where he wants to.

True but I'm talking about strong winds.

You back that queen again, you son-of-a-[expletive], I'll blow you right up that wildcat's ass! Do you hear me, huh?

You make an excellent point. I'm sure all those experienced skydivers have never accounted for wind and go up in any type of wind condition. Good thinking waiting for calmer winds.

I'd say go for it. I'd have done it myself by now if I had known more people into it.

AdmiralKird can introduce you to a group of people interested in it. He can even introduce you to a girl who's newly available.

It's not that. Depending on how Admiral Kird feels about wind, it would make sense if he didn't want to go sky diving in a 20 mph wind.
