Quote: Did they have to force-feed them lead shot, or did they just use
customized vests?

WELL, First, its not a BSR, so none were broken. AND not that I
participated in such a barbaric animal event. But I believe the poor
kittys had a floating problem on passing in the beginning. I don't
know how they cured that problem. I believe they started hand
passing and not letting go of them. Then the claws were a bit of a
hassle as you can understand why in passing. Also the claws caused
problems upon canopy opening. The cats tended to take off climbing
the strings to the canopy. Which made the canopy fly badly.
I believe these probems were effectively handled by duck taping the
claws. Just in case someone decides to try it again, I believe they
should benefit from the mistakes of older skydiver pioneers. WHO
DON'T KNOW NOTHING. |

Take it from a Ole boy who tried to put a cat in a bucket of water
once,
gloves don't help, maybe welding gloves I dunno, farm gloves
no.....They will climb right up your arm and into your face if scared
or pissed off enough.....better have a AAD cuz your going to be busy
on the way down, maybe with both hands, they tend to climb up the
nearest thing |
