    Congratulations and happy birthday, Mehreen!  I prefer a airplane descent that's gentle enough so that even your ears don't pop. :) /ravi

    Soft blowing your nose during the jump usually helps. It was the 7th jump of the day for my tandem instructor and his ear was literally bleeding. Apparently, he didn't even realize it.

      I went on my 30th. Did a paired jump. I much prefer floating around when the parachute is open than the freefall.

        Well done - I did 40+ rec jumps in the late 70s, it gets better the more you do!
