Level IV

Jump Number: AFF Level IV, Jump Master: Michael Badnarik

Date: 1/24/98 Location: Salado, TX Aircraft: KingAir Equipment: Laser 9 Altitude: 14500 Delay: 65

Good exit, body position needs more arch. No PRCP, even with JM's assistance. Released to stable flight. Slow left turn was uncontrolled for three rotations. Stopped by JM. Left spin after re-release. Poor Alt. awareness. Low pull after JM stopped spin. Canopy opened at 2500'. Not cleared of Level IV. Practice arch and counter acting turns before rejump. (Some spotting practice before jump.)

What he failed to comment on was that my AAD fired! Not a performance I'd like to repeat!
