No, we weren't "jumpers"....all pilots here (incl wife). Gentleman doing the services was a judge-friend that we taught to fly & sold airplanes to. He's now retired. Photographer was a local newspaper photographer-friend that I used to take up for lots of aerials & he was involved w/our EAA chapter. Our family & friends were in "chase planes" following. This whole thing was orchestrated in about 2 hours.
