A special thanks to KODI - AK for allowing me to adopt these caches and allowing the series to continue.
The containers have been replaced and are now tethered. Please take the time to coil and replace the cache as found.
All logs are now "Right in the Rain" paper. Standard ball points, pencils or ultra fine Sharpies are recommended when dry. If wet pencils are recommended.
Please do not over tighten the "Caps" snug is fine.

I wanted to jump out of those airplanes !!!! Why would you want to do that? Because I do !!!
I made my first jump in 1980 at Clewiston , Florida. I was part of a special minority of the population -- not many people have what it takes to go to a drop zone and actually jump out of an airplane! All of us who skydive know exactly how I felt during my first jump. It was the most exhilarating and liberating thing I have ever done-- EVER ! Since the day of my first jump , the sky is bluer , the grass is greener , people are more interesting , and life is better.
I have over 900 jumps , from small planes , from big planes , from a hot air balloon , from a army helicopter and a Boeing 727 jetliner. I received a certifificate of Archievement from a successfully parachuted jump from the aft exit of a Boeing 727 Jetliner. By being one of only a handful of people to have ever accomplished this feat , I was hereby entitled to hold D.B. Cooper # 147. We had over 200 people jumping from that 727 jetliner on that day, I was the 147 person to exit the jet . ( you may want to look up who was D.B. Cooper )
The best jump was from a World War II B-17 Bomber air craft , right through the bomb bay doors in the year of 1992. In 2013 that same B-17 arrived at the air port in Fort Myers , Florida for a airshow with another bomber aircraft that was a B-12. I got to take a tour of both aircrafts and while talking with the pilot , I found out that this was the same plane I got to jump from in 1992.
Skydivers can qualify for and receive a variety of licenses and ratings according to their experience , skill , and knowledge level.
To solve this puzzzle you shall have to get some information about the four classes of USPA licenses skydivers can quality for : A , B , C , AND D.
To qualify for a USPA " C " license you must have completed ??? jumps , including accumulating at least 60 minutes of controlled freefall time.
Take the total amount of jumps for a "C" license , add that total amount of jumps to the number 379. This shall give you the last three digits of the North coods.
SAMPLE:
??? + 379 = N 26 41.???
To qualify for a USPA " D " license you must have completed ??? jumps , including accumulating at least three hours of control freefall time.
Take the total amount of jumps for a "D" license , add that total of jumps to the number 479. This shall give you the last three digits of the WEST coords.
SAMPLE:
??? + 479 = W 082 03.???
After about 100 jumps , I took some training on becoming a video and camerman for skydiving. I took all the picture from the time you left the plane and landing on the ground.
