My Friends

3Oct 08

I started Jumpmaster training this week and really got in over my head. For more details see the Wiki description

This week was a written exam on nomenclature (terminology), I aced it but missed my JMPI test time limit by 50 seconds. See this video for what JMPI is.

I must inspect three jumpers rigged up in less than 5 min and identify all major deficiencies in a pre-determined order. It is an extremely anal inspection standard, that I agree with since we are the last inspection given to each jumper prior to the actual jump.

I also researched my jumps to determin I now have 28 recorded jumps. If I pass this course (and get at least two more jumps during the course I will be rated as a senior parachutist.

This has been one of my career goals, so I am very focused. Wish me luck, I re-test Monday on JMPI.
