Can You Be a Jumpmaster?
I know I posted this before, but my "google fu" is weak today, so here it is again.
Can you get Daffy Duck on the target? My high score is 500 (but I failed to 'clear the rear').

I am putting him out on track, but that damn duck can't drive a canopy worth a damn!
I got 500 the first time through, and still didn't top it after three tries.

Sometimes, I like to let Daffy "splat"... just because.  But I finally hit 700... after starting 5 out of 6!

With a combination of HAHO and HALO I managed to only splat him 3 times
and scored 200. I don't want to hear it Bill J.
(the light was green that morning 23 years ago in Mcdill.)

I've found that HALO works best with Daffy... well, the A is always the same, but LO works better most of the time, esp. for the higher platforms. I liken those to trying to land atop one of the spires in Monument Valley! <g>

With all the bad news, I needed some fun... so I thought I'd 'bump' this thread.
Daffy still can't steer a chute, and I can't JM worth a damn!
