The cutting edge in human flight

I'm retired. Got too expensive. Jump prices in a cessna 182 in AB are hovering around the $40 mark. Which is _fucking_ ridiculous. The jump prices in the states for 4000ft more altitude out of an otter are around $19.

And I was never a tandem instructor, those guys are wierd. I was a dispatch instructor. Old skool baby!

I say its totally possible, all you need to do is create a giant inflatable slide (the type they hang off passenger planes in an emergency) about 200 or so feet high. It would create a big cuishy parabolic slope, you could have it start with a 45 degree angle at the top, eventually sloping down to 0.

Say your gliding at a 45 degree angle matched to the slope of the slide at the top, you hit the top of the slide with no force at all, then the friction grabs you and you slip all the way down and get some rug burn =p
