Skydiving has become something of a birthday tradition for former U.S. President George H.W. Bush.
41 celebrated his 90th birthday by leaping from a plane at a height of about 10,000 feet over Kennebunkport, Maine, on Thursday, where he spent most of his childhood. Bush suffers from Parkinson's disease, which has kept him bound to a wheelchair for most of the past year

The former president's flight was scheduled to depart around 10:45 a.m. ET, and the weather was all clear from the start.
It's a wonderful day in Maine — in fact, nice e**ugh for a parachute jump.
