Nope, not bad at all! It is so much fun!!! And you have 2 parachutes so if one doesn't open the other will. Life is to short to not go do cool/insane things! LOL

Just out of curiousity...why only 3500ft?

why not 12,000? airspace restrictions or something? How does altitude vary?

Oh and another question, does the plane go in slow flight before you jump?

Ive always wondered because if its moving at 140kts and u jump out wouldnt you hit the horizontal stabalizer? lol ..
