With a group of friends and relatives watching, Bockstruck leaped Sept. 19 at the Jumptown sky-diving club in Orange, Mass., west of Boston. She says she doesn't remember jumping from the plane.
But tandem partner and jump instructor Paul Peckham Jr. says she had perfect form and landed without a hitch.
He says she's the oldest person he's taken on a jump. The second-oldest was 78.
Bockstruck says she's been married seven times, has traveled the world and has had jobs ranging from hotel desk clerk to seamstress for the John Wayne movie "True Grit."
