I'm sure of one thing, i'd rather be in the 95% that didn't make it then the x number of wishing they'd tried.
I'm just glad the things that make me happy in life (other then flying) don't cost me a cent... in fact a lot of the time i get paid for the privilage of doing something i love. It may not be aviation but its still something.
I'm not sure if being willing to accept that things may not work out is the same as not being enthusiastic, its just a good defence against ending up jaded like so many seem to be.
Now after all that, if anyone knows anything going at skydiving places round south east QLD i'd love to know, or even ANY info at all bout the people/operators around i'd love to know.
