When I went to Jump School (1984) it was 3 weeks long (long miserable weeks getting yelled at by the Black hats as the NCOs in charge were called) and culminated with 5 jumps -- Most who earn their jump wings only ever do the 5 qualification jumps. I was fortunate to go on and do a few more...
I have managed to fall out a few aircraft while in flight o_O
BTW this topic led me to search for miniature jump wings etal. I do have a pin for my British Wings, but only full size qualification badges for my US Wings...
Your comment, immediately following my post, seems to have an implication that I can't seem to grasp
Perhaps you are inclined to blurt that out at the mere mention of a baseball cap :eek:
Please forgive my ignorance (but it was all of you who sent me wandering the rabbit hole of shoe styles...)
But wouldn't these shoes be a derby not an oxford?
Open laces vs closed?
Either way oh man what beautiful shoes you all have!
Picked these up and on the first day these white/pink lines appeared between the scales (?) of the Hornback Caiman
Black Cherry Walters from Luccheses
Is this something I should warranty?
Was that a rhetorical question?
Or did the "Available, ships in about 140 - 160 working days" posted on most hats on their website escape your search?
Enjoy your new hat when it arrives :)
