As soon as "Ogrish" popped up I expected to guy to tangle up in the
empennage or something. What do you guys think of this?

Intreresting but not spectacular. People been doing similar ever since
the 20's and a lot of wing walking sans parachute. That takes some
balls!
I've got pics of 13 jumpers crawling around outside a Twin Beech. Was
over Perris,CA back in the 80's


Yeah with the 'old style' big suits and Strong containers stuffed with
T-10s and PCs.

I wonder what the sink rate of the plane was.
