If a jumper did that on one of my lifts I would immediately nick their front teeth with my left fist as soon as I had dead-sticked. They would never get a ride from me again.
Waa, waa, waaa, who really cares?

Soarfeet, my two cents worth is that flying jumpers is a fun way to build up a bit of flight time, my suggestion is that you first hang out a bit at the drop zone and get a feel for the operation, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out if whether or not it's a professional organization you want to be associated with.

Jumpers are an untrusting lot and are slow to warm up to a pilot, especially if they say something like "I'll never do that" it takes a while to become a good jump pilot, not a simple job. Whiners need not apply.
