When we were jumping at Arthur 20 years ago, the pilot was ex-Luftwaffe... after he dropped us over the field at about 3,000 feet, he'd be on the ground before we were. Amazing flying... often thought it would be more fun staying with him than doing what we were doing...
His name was Hans Wettstein.

Remember the exit...jab or door?...
