Sylmar Hang Gliding Association

Thanks for the updates, Larry and welcome home. I happen to agree with your interest in reopening Mt. Wilson. It was a big blow when we lost the LZ a few years ago.

I am happy to see that you are interested. You have great questions... Our (illustrious) VP, Larry Chamblee, along with many active Club members are in contact with the Forest Service. If you watch the home page on the web site you will note, under the Heroes section, our Forest Service Commitee is ...

I'm listening... I think this is a very interesting idea and worth discussion. Perhaps this can be added as an agenda item for the next meeting. BTW, All members are welcome to attend the monthly BOD meetings and especially encouraged to do so when you have ideas for improving the Club. Personally, ...

Press reply and finish the story! We're diein', over here

Great job you guys! I hope you do more...

Practicing XC at Kagel is a great idea! Next time it's offered, take the XC clinic from Dave Cutter. In it he covers many of the basics a pilot would use on any XC flight. I also suggest taking the RLF clinic from HJoe. When you are signed off you might consider landing at Big T wash. All these smal...

Max, I was in the truck when we picked you up at the gas station alonside the road. I recall your initial flight account and, as I said at the time, I am very happy you are okay. It was scarey to hear what you went through... What a huge lesson and experience you had. I've seen a lot of pilots becom...

Ah, C'mon dude... you're killin' me! This is very close to my flight story and I can't wait to see how we ended up... I concur the cloud suck was incredible. Lot's of hail and rain cells around us. Although miles a part, they created huge changes in wind direction. There were plenty of LZ's too; ASS...

Hi Barton, I just signed up for the Yosemite trip. I am pulling the Pulse out of retirement and, assuming all goes well w/test flight today, plan on joining the fun this weekend. When do you plan to arrive to the campsite? Please hold us a spot if you can. If we arrive before you, we'll hold spots f...

Hi All, Post a notice in the LZ. Ask everyone to sign up and let them know the Club is providing the dry goods and grillables. Then, members can see what other's are bringing and decide what they want to bring themselves. Usually, there's so much food there's no problem covering everyone. If it look...

Happy to hear you are willing to include Fish Bowl in upcoming Spring Air Festival. I'll send word to the BOD and include you in the emails. We can come up with strategy to promote and get folks on board. I know our seasoned pilots LOVE this format and our newer pilots will enjoy a clinic environmen...

This is a great club event. The one you coordinated for us last year was a huge success. If you don't have enough interest at this time of year, have you considered putting it together as part of the Spring Air Fest in April/May?

Freddy and I would be happy to help...

In years past we've coordinated a ride up to launch for our SHGA volunteers who help w/SIBL Balldrop. Often the windsports truck or Fred Ballard will hold seats for us if we contact them in advance.
