I know that the velocity of my dive is
calculated and presented in both feet per second and miles per hour. They
say that international jumpers whose heads work in meters per second
should divide feet per second by 3.28; or velocity in meters/second is
about a third of the answer in feet/second. I guess the free fall speed
you calculate is only momentary as you pass through the selected altitude.
But I've got to ask, who gives a damn about that! What I want is to
jump and spread my wings in the big sky. I crave the freedom of the
perfect air. Perry Trowbridge - a true
