Oh, Richard Branson. There's a brilliant one. Came to Zephyrhills to get
"parachute" training for his baloon oddesey (failure BTW). He made
several AFF jumps. On the last, and under good canopy, he cuts away at
1200' and deploys the reserve "just to see what it's like". WHAT AN
IDIOT! He was asked to leave shortly thereafter. Video available.
And, jealous you say? Not I. I am plenty comfortable. If it weren't for
Terry D (great pilot and great guy), we would be saying Steve who?
And one more thing, with all that money, you'd think he could get a
better mistress. She's a real winner (not).
