Nice save, I watch my jumpers as they exit, I have a good feel for the plane and can cross check every few seconds to make sure things esp airspeed are where they feel and sound. Pilot rig is a MUST and reg, but saving the plane is huge, if you have to jump because someone ripped off the tail your going to have paperwork but a good story, jumping because the engine quit and your going to be the biggest butt head in history lol.

I had a tandem get snagged on a seatbelt on the way out once, that sucked, im huge on hookknifes now for the pilot, and more than 1 they break, the only one I had was the one in the tandem harness, had to work with the instructor to get it up to me, otherwise things could have went downhill fast. This ended fairly uneventful in retrospect, didnt feel like it at the time.

I have seen the monkeys climb all over, had one guy basically go over the wing, had to say please dont do that again. Its a very high pace job, you will be rushed alot refueling so watch your caps. You will be rushed and have to deal with boneheads on the radio doing patterns that take you halfway across the state, thinking if my engine quits im screwed and the DZ is out of a plane. Most jump planes dont have hull insurance either. Dont expect to have much glide if you lose an engine on takeoff since your at MGW. Also be ready to occasionally be near VFR mins in a plane that most likely is the furthest thing ever from being MVFR friendly, let alone a joke if someone ever took the thing ifr. Also you hope to god manifest is checking repack cards, and your basically fully responsible for your jumpers and what they do.
