[NSRCA-discussion] Off-topic, but cool! Awesome Skydiver/Glider stunt

[Bill Glaze]

Yeah--I remember the clip I saw on a TV show that showed a skydiver jumping 
out of a Cessna and diving toward a Stearman which was in a nose-down 
attitude, diving, but with a drogue chute on it to slow it down.  The diver 
flew (fell?) to the Stearman, hit a net stretched between a section of the 
wings, and then climbed into the front cockpit, all WITHOUT a parachute. 
Gave me a chill watching; still does just thinking about it.
