THIS MAY BE OUR LAST CHANCE TO SAVE SKYDIVING FROM DIRE CONSEQUENCES

October 3, 2017

The proponents of the bad idea of stripping air traffic control from the FAA, and handing it to a new private corporation are planning to have the House vote on their bill--HR 2997--next week. All of the general aviation (GA) groups, including USPA, are opposed.

If you have not called your Congressional Representative and secured their "no" vote on HR 2997, please do so now!

1. Dial toll-free: 833-GAVOICE (833-428-6423), weekdays from 9-5 Eastern.

2. You will be asked to input your zip code then transferred to your Representative's office.

3. Say: "I am opposed to ATC privatization, and my Representative should vote 'no' on HR 2997."

If you do not call, and HR 2997 passes Congress and is signed into law, here is what could happen:
The airlines and large airports will gain control of the new ATC board, outweighing GA and skydiving interests.
FAA's current "first come, first served" ATC policy will be eliminated, degrading service to skydive operators.
Decisions affecting airspace and ATC procedures will favor airline efficiency and penalize skydiving operational and airspace needs.
Drop Zones could lose airspace.
Skydive operators will incur higher costs due to increased flight times; jump ticket costs will increase.

Please call! The future of skydiving, and all of GA, is at stake!

A little PSA... yesterday we had a customer come with a new line set and a request to change his lines.... one look at the lines, Robbie thought he was missing something, he came and found me, asked my opinion... these lines were in fantastic shape, hardly any discoloration from the slider, even! We advised him to keep the new line set a while longer, bring it all back in another 100 jumps and we would re-asses! There was no need at all for a line change! For this customer it means another 6 months before he has to pay for a re-line. He was super upset he was given such bad advice to start with but super happy to see someone as experienced as Robbie ask for a second opinion. Moral of the story.... ask around for sound advice and don't be afraid to get a second opinion before you shell out loads of cash. If anyone is offended you want a second opinion, it's because they don't trust their own decisions!
