You've Seen The Video

Now here are the photos I took!

"Welcome to the Farm"



Tandem Guy Chad hooking Mike up, while Mike's coworker mills about

Big Steve showing Indy how to hold herself to jump out of the plane, that's pretty much all you need to know!

Indy and Big Steve heading out of the hanger

DZ Chad filming Indy for the pre-jump interview

Here's their plane. It landed at the Farm for the last run of the day, so I was able to get a photo

And they're off! The plane flies over the farm as it spirals up to 14,000, but when they jumped, I could barely see the plane - it was just a tiny white speck in the sky

Indy & Big Steve's canopy was bright enough to spot right away

Coming in to the drop zone

Landings were fun to watch. At first it seems like they're coming in too fast, but at the last minute, they slow it all down and come in for a perfect landing



DZ Chad capturing Indy's famous Scared Spitless comment!

Here comes Mike! I had a hard time finding them in the sky

They were the last to land, I was getting a tad nervous

DZ Chad and his little dog Claire report it was a great first jump!

Mike & Indy comparing notes

All the jumpers return to the hanger to de-harness and jumpers pack up their chutes for the last sunset run of the day.
Here we are - the Nutso's as my friend so eloquently put it!

Here's the plane coming in for the last landing of the day at the Farm instead of the airport

and DZ Chad, Indy's videographer, on his sunset jump for fun!
