Rally Photos



This is Dick Northam, (the Dickster) from Indianapolis, checking the position of the winning jump.  Note the skydiver is laying against the stob.  It's hard to get any closer than that !!!



This is Jack Treadman, in the straw hat ,  at one of the packing tables getting ready for another jump.  Jack had good luck this year, he had some really good competitive jumps and didn't even crash his jump plane once !!



A couple of the members of our mighty team that attended the rally in Muncy.  Jami in the foreground and next to him Richie. They seem to be prepared for any sudden crushing disappointment by the roll of toilet paper displayed prominently  out front.



This is old Kansas, (the flatlander) with his original design.  If you will notice it holds 2 jumpers under each wing and another in a drop box under the fuselage, which he didn't have mounted at the time of this picture.

It flew beautifully, even if he did tear the paneling off the living room walls to build it.  Way to go Perry!!!



I got my notes mixed up, but I think this is John Sedovick jockeying for position to make a run at the bulls eye.  As I remember, he didn't hit the center of the target but he was well within the target area.



This is the CHAMPION, Gary Van Fossen from Stuarts Draft Virginia.....Congratulations Gary, and how appropriate that you did it with  a  Wally Gitchell jumper and chute.  I'm sure that old Wally is looking down with a big grin.



This is the drop box on Garry Van Foosen's plane. It worked flawlessly every time.



This is the Dickster giving the complicated rules of the rally to the jumpers. GO OVER THERE AND HIT THAT TARGET!!!!!

I want to apologize to Dick (the Dickster) Northam and Jack Treadman because I lost the photos  with their faces on them.

And to a host of others whose photos are lost somewhere in cyberspace.  I'm too old for this digital camera and computer stuff.  Those photos disappeared from my screen and I haven't the slightest notion where they went.

If I can get my daughter to find them for me, I will put them on the site later.  Sorry Dudes.
