Sylmar Hang Gliding Association

My computer recently crashed and I had to replace the hard drive.

In the process, I lost all my email contacts.

If you want to get any more politically incorrect, prurient, irreverent or funny emails, send me an email, so I'll have your address.

Don't make me ask twice.

Oops. Sorry! I can't go after all.

I'd like to go, and I can take up to six gliders (seven if they're skinny)

If anyone has a driver, let me know.

I have four giant pillows -- about six feet square and two feet thick -- made out of heavy duty cordura nylon fabric. I'd be willing to donate them. I'm a little concerned about property owner's liability for someone getting hurt, although we should be protected by the California Recreational Use St...

I visited Danny yesterday afternoon, during a physical therapy session. Olivia thinks he recognized me, and he was responsive to the instructions of the therapist. He was able to stand up, but couldn't remain standing with a walker without support from the therapist and her assistant. Olivia would l...

Mucho thanks to Andy Beem and Emily Brown for their gracious hospitality in hosting a wonderful weekend of flying and carousing in Ojai. I've been looking at the Ojai bluffs since I was stationed at Port Hueneme in 1966-68, when they would be covered in snow from December through April. I've flown O...

Rome and all - You can't just take people's personal property. That's called "wrongful deprivation of property," and you could get sued for it. If you were to take something by force from someone, that's assault, probably battery (an unprivileged touching of another person), and possibly r...

Christian Williams pointed out that this post should have been in the "Safety and Incidents in Flight" section of this Forum, where people might look for an accident report. He's right, I ditzed, putting it in "General Discussion." This report is revised slightly, based on inform...

Christian lives ! Nice to hear from you. Thanks for your kind words on the report. I apologize for my lapse of consciousness on the genius of the forum design. Of course, this report should be in the accidents section of the forum. I will duplicate-post it in the proper place. Roar with rodent bashin'

Death to Emoticons !

That's impactification, George. By the way, folks, I misquoted Joe Greblo, although I thought that my version of what he said was way scientific and aerodynamic - you know - about the updraft at the lip of the Saddle launch changing the angle of attack Joe says: "I didn't suggest a different di...

What time does the parachute clinic start on Saturday?

I blew my launch yesterday at the Kagel Saddle launch, where the paragliders launch. I think I should have run harder and I should have given greater consideration to the conditions. I was flying my Wills U-2 160. Even though my ATOS rigid wing (It’s pronounced Ah-Tose by its German designer) is g...

Rome - Happy 81st Birthday on October 27. Sorry to be two days late. Since JT does not post his or her name in his or her profile, you are justifiably irritated at anonymous criticism. Even though this person's identity is shrouded in secrecy, there are those who say it is a non-bald person, married...
