    That was smashed firmly out of the park!! As a UK based tandem instructor, I am well impressed with Mikey and Cory and the operation as a whole. I have to admit though, watching the military set up to jump was making me tweak a bit. As for Joe, great man and great pilot!

    Joe, I salute you friend. As an ex-Paratrooper having done just over 90 jumps between 1976 - 1989 I can tell you the hardest call for a pilot to make is call a "Stop Jump". In my military career I've done two water jumps, a couple of "Tree" jumps and one night operational jump 400 kilometers behind enemy lines at 4 'o clock in the morning. Although most of my jumps were from the Dakota DC-3 (The 'Dak' as we called it) we also jumped from the Lockheed C-130 Hercules. The guys that played an important part in our jumps were our despatchers, but I can tell you that the bravest guy in the set-up was the one who decided to to call the jump. You're a hero in my eyes because you called it good. Well done Sir, I salute you!

Well done to all involved and sorry, but you need to be patient with Mother Nature.

      I have never seen Joe do anything unsafe. I have seen him exemplify how not to act in a safety culture but he has never flown in a manner that is unsafe. There has never been a plane fly that was not airworthy that I recall.
      I work under the FAA some things are different up there, we follow much different training requirements. For 16 years I was the final arbiter of flight safety operations for a very prestigious airline from 9pm to 6am, I have spoken with the FAA several times, they never disagreed with my decision. I would call Joe unorthodox but not unsafe.

      @@DWBurns All this is bla bla and you, obviously, have no knowledge of the situation. FYI, 1st: FAA is from USA and not Canadian so whatever you wrote is irrelevant. 2nd: Joe was FORCED OUT by Transport Canada. It was that, or Buffalo Airways had to close. That fact alone made all of your bla bla irrelevant.
      And you speak as if you've always been by his side to watch his every move. Which is false.
      Last, Transport Canada's records tell a very different story than all of your bla bla and lies.
      Last "I have spoken with the FAA several times, they never disagreed with my decision." LOL like you are THE god of all gods and whatever you say, even without any knowledge and no basic verification is gold. People with your attitude are a liability in the aviation world...

    You could se the guys jumping and their parachutes opening, but one guy, jumps but his parachute never opens.
