Sylmar Hang Gliding Association

My fellow club mates,

"life" got on the way, and i made a commitment to get things done

before i could fly again.

That didn't work out very well, because it took much longer to

finish than anticipated. My last flight was in December of 2010.

I used to fly a lot, so a year and a half seems like a long, long time to be

grounded.

But I am back now.

I hope I didn’t forget how to fly, but I will take a safe, conservative

approach to my “rehabilitation�-find a Falcon or something, do bunch of

takeoffs and landings, start out in mellow, evening conditions,

until I am confident to transition to my glider.

Looking forward to see ya all, in the air or in the LZ.

Vrezh.

I'm sure Cutter can help you on the road to recovery.
Welcome back. Can hardly wait to see Flora and Benji in the LZ and you in the air.

Welcome Home Vrezh. I was wondering where you were! Life got in my way too. I was gone for 7 months but I came back. It felt so good to get airborne again.

Spend some time at Dockweiler Beach and recover your skills, then come out and "Ring The Bell".

glad to see you in the air and l/z again, vrezh! welcome home!

Welcome back Vrezh. It was good to see you in the air again yesterday.

Thanks for a warm welcome, felt right home!

We are truly touched...

And what a wonderful place has our LZ become!

Those, who envisioned, struggled, sacrificed, and achieved-big salute!

It is an honor to be amongst you.

SHGA is awesome!

P.S. Sunday, May 27 we came out again, I had my second real mountain

flight, got to see many of you, beautiful day, familiar faces, beer and

food, Benji was one happy camper...

Thanks again, everyone, it's such a feeling to be greeted with open arms.


P.P.S. Now, the fun part, let's go analyse my "dishonorable return to

earth", AKA landing.

Vrezh:
I am delighted you are flying again, and sorry I cannot join you.
