Rande Deluca, D-5878, caught this month's cover shot of a DC-3 dumping a load out of two side doors.  Deluca was one of the early pioneers of freefall photography; with nearly 3,000 jumps he is one of the most experienced shooters in the sport.

European photographer Max Dereta was there to get this shot of a canopy stack forming high above the clouds over Texel, Holland.  The shot first appeared in Heinz Fischer's Skydiver Magazine.  For an American skydiving couple's view of skydiving in Europe, see the story by Dennis and Anne Worden on page 23.

Gus Wing brought back this shot of his wife Kemper on a demo the couple performed into the University of Virginia football stadium in Charlottesville, VA.  The occasion was the Virginia Cavaliers/Maryland Terrapins football game.

Tanya Stringham, D-7121, leaned out the window of Bill Dause's DC-3 to get this exit shot of the Dead Meat 10-way team during the Best of the West meet at the Lodi, CA DZ.  Although reigning national champions of the 10-way event, Dead Meat was beaten by The Clutch at the Best of the West competition.

Photographer Lou Bottoms caught Florida jumper Kathy Embrey following a stream of other jumpers after an exit from the Mr. Douglas DC-3 at the DeLand, FL drop zone earlier this year.  The jumps culminated in a women's world record 48-way formation.
