Sylmar Hang Gliding Association

Maybe we as a community of pilots could scope " personal attack " with careful study. And then see how we do about some common understanding about what a "personal attack" is or is not. Perhaps pilots will put their best study hat on for some substantial amount of time and sincer...

Poll.

Resolution to Right ======================== United resolution of HG challenges will be keyed when HG community -----------------one-by-one------------ becomes proud of being a HG pilot; a core test of such pride will be when the HG community en masse rights the wrong done to fellow hang glider pilo...

Davis Straub, in response to the topic question also asked a question:

How has USHPA been failing hang gliding? Maybe the answer is really with an answer of "No ways; she has not been failing hang gliding in any way." Maybe the answer will be: "Some minor ways, but the whole flow is acceptable." Maybe the answer will turn out to be: "Some sign...

Equity of activity would not have a HG citizen join a private corporation in order to glide from dirt to sand in a HG on public beach-park land. Being a citizen should be enough. World, please distinguish between a BUSINESS operating on public lands from the activity of citizens just individually re...

Distinguish between a BUSINESS at Dockweiler and open, free, recreational, and individual HG at Dockweiler. ====================== For decades the open, free, recreational, and individual HG at Dockweiler has not been allowed; but surfing, swimming, fires, kiteboarding, cycling, umbrellas, and other...

Since so much information is not on the table (much is behind the scenes), it is difficult to know just what is going on. Speculation provides some things to consider. Have deals been cut that keep hang gliding from gaining equitable treatment on public lands compared to other citizen recreation act...

When considering the topic's lifted quote, one might wonder how the sentence might be tweaked. Have your hand at tweak efforts. Example of a tweaking effort: "The chapter will monitor or administer the site to assure that HGP-rated pilots fly the site." Then pilots with HGP rating would be...

Thanks for your continued interest in the topic (see start post).
So, a teaser:

Hi OP, Sure. To your question. No problem, OP. Thanks. I'll not post further on this topic unless someone shows interest in the topic. Fair enough. I was guessing someone might want to explore the topic; if not, then there is no need for further posts in this topic thread. Best of lift to you and yo...

TG, As noted, time will tell. You finally revealed that you had an off-topic motive that you just fulfilled. You stayed three times pushing off-topic to serve your chosen motive. You used space belonging to one topic to push a different topic; and you apparently admit motive just for such conduct. Y...

TG, the topic includes the statement. You are wrestling with the statement; inasmuch as you wrestle with the statement, you are on the topic. Inasmuch as you might get off topic, then so. Privatization has been woven into the topic of this topic thread. Do any actions of the USHPA begin to look like...

The program is not permitting an edit. In the former post, I had intended to restate the topic: THE TOPIC: For a "chapter" club, USHPA requires for sites involved: "The chapter will monitor or administer the site to assure that only USHPA member pilots fly the site." The spirit o...

TG, your strawman premise was NOT the premise of the topic thread. Sorry. Differently, one sentence is being examined for its possible un-American fit. Your strawman premise is another topic. Again, now twice, you have started new topics within a lead topic; it may be informative to deal with your s...

Hi TG, your bring up an important question which deserves a dedicated topic, I think. Will you be starting a topic on that question? I will watch for such and participate, if you do. Thanks. The present topic concerns a careful study of the USHPA clause presented in the opening post. Neil Armstrong ...

For a "chapter" club, USHPA requires for sites involved: "The chapter will monitor or administer the site to assure that only USHPA member pilots fly the site." The spirit of such text just seems to me to be un-American. FAA does not privatize the airspace; all citizens have a ri...

And thus ..
the "5-ft Hang Glider Pack Movement".

Aviation has been kind to Los Angeles' economy. Aviation forms part of the fabric of life in Los Angeles. Very many L. A. citizens depend on airports, pilots, and aviation industries in Los Angeles. Keen insight would reveal that hang gliding roots and supports all that aviation dynamic. It would be...
