I put together some short video clips of the event and used some photos also taken by our friends to make this short video.

Rome's last flight

Post by gregangsten »

Rome asked me to post this response from Carol Ann, Walter Briant's wife. She is referring to the video Vrezh put together of Rome's last flight.


I loved the video…made me cry. I also related to the mountains where we scattered Walter's ashes.

Hang glide pilots are an amazing group of people…brave, visionary and out there! I admire all of you..I have been up twice on a powered hang glider with a friend of Walter's...it was exhilarating…until I looked down and said…oops that is a long way down..(we were up above Waiimea Canyon on Kauai-about 3000 feet-cold)…..I could drop my camera !
