World Team 2006: Saturday, three drops scheduled.
http://worldteam2006.blogspot.com/2006/02/saturday-three-drops-scheduled.html
In which Luke travels to Thailand, with a slot in the starting lineup for the 400 way attempts. Saturday, February 04, 2006. Saturday, three drops scheduled. There were three loads on the sked, and we were geared up and dirt dived by 0900 with a couple of minutes to spare. Then the news broke of "Maintenance troubles", and the attempt was lost. You'll hear various versions of this, but essentially most of the team were released until 1330. Imagine my surprise to find myself in the plane at 1230. As it tu...

World Team 2006: Mass drop
http://worldteam2006.blogspot.com/2006/02/mass-drop.html
In which Luke travels to Thailand, with a slot in the starting lineup for the 400 way attempts. Saturday, February 11, 2006. Despite a somewhat dysfunctional start to the day, we did manage to complete the mass drop. The Thais has clearly rehearsed their part of things for some time, and made World Team look a bit shambolic. It was completed relatively trouble free - I heard one person was injured - and the new airport we jumped at is just huge. Might go see if I can find a beer in this town somewhere.

World Team 2006: Lost my place
http://worldteam2006.blogspot.com/2006/02/lost-my-place.html
In which Luke travels to Thailand, with a slot in the starting lineup for the 400 way attempts. Saturday, February 04, 2006. Just where I am in the blog, actually. There is ONE internet terminal in the hotel, and a couple of places down the road, but they are LONG days. The place over the road that offers "coffee and breakfast" opens at 9, which is not much use when you're on a 0640 call. A danish guy has loaned me his laptop for half an hour. Legend. The keyboard is tough though. Fifteen seconds. I ...

World Team 2006: Actually, did lose my slot.
http://worldteam2006.blogspot.com/2006/02/actually-did-lose-my-slot.html
In which Luke travels to Thailand, with a slot in the starting lineup for the 400 way attempts. Saturday, February 04, 2006. Actually, did lose my slot. Actually, I did lose my slot at the dirt dive this morning. Out five way line - part of the base 75 way - has been causing the organisers all sorts of trouble. Everyone has an opinion, and I have mine, so I'll share it - we're not sticking to the plan. The anchor guy behind me ("Lead up, dude! Was similar in his frustration at not being aircraft captain ...

World Team 2006: We rocked today
http://worldteam2006.blogspot.com/2006/02/we-rocked-today.html
In which Luke travels to Thailand, with a slot in the starting lineup for the 400 way attempts. Tuesday, February 07, 2006. It's taken some time to organise the Aussie photo. Here it is. I'm sure there's another one with some of us smiling, but resources are limited. Missing is Igor. He's really, really crook, and so is his family. We're all hurting for him, but nothing we can do. Two jumps today, both crackers. The mood is good - real good. Posted by L. @ 5:38 PM. Comments: Post a Comment.

World Team 2006: Alti-2 Titan
http://worldteam2006.blogspot.com/2006/02/alti-2-titan.html
In which Luke travels to Thailand, with a slot in the starting lineup for the 400 way attempts. Saturday, February 04, 2006. Interviewed Roger Allen from Alti-2 today, regarding Titan - very next generation information system, with Altimeter, Heads up display, Audible, GPS, etc. I think I've already linked to it on www.skysurfer.com.au,. Anyway, no time to write it up here. But I will. I have the chance to do followup, so if you're interested and have a question for him drop me a line. Links to this post:.
