Sorry i wasn't going to bother replying here goes as i think there is a tad of confusion here.
Yes of course I know the BPA regs and yes i know it is against the regs of an private pilot.
A yes of course I am a qualified skydiver. You would have to be an utter crazy person to jump out of a plane after obtaining a random parachute from somewhere.
As Scooby points out i have friends in the US than jump from their friends private planes regularly and very safely. Obviously that is the US and we're in the UK. So i know you all have good intentions at heart but i already know of the legalities over here (or should i say bureaucracies).
If someone is interested in dropping a "qualified skydivier" with a perfectly good rig out of their plane in a very discreet location, then PM me.
