I don't know. Maybe it's just me. But directly over flying an active jump

dumb.


The dropzone I fly at has been operating for 6 years now. We are noted
on the charts with a parachute symbol and we are published in the AF/D.
I talk myself hoarse on CTAF as well as working with Approach. Every
weekend at least one (and usually more) uncaring, uninformed or perhaps
just friggin' stupid pilot will fly right smack dab over the DZ (which
is a private airfield). What's really aggravating is it isn't transient
pilots, it's local guys.

There is nothing - absolutely nothing - half so much worth doing
as simply messing around with airplanes.
