Bob Kuczewski, hang 3's at Torrey Pines

Post by dhmartens »

I see Bob Kuczewski was elected region 3 director. I read he has been battling to get hang 3's the right to fly Torrey Pines. Does this mean we will have a hang 3 trip to Torrey in celebration?

I was at torrey not long ago and saw Bob in the parking lot watching everyone fly. I walked over to talk to him and found out that he was not allowed on the property and that is why he was watching the action from the parking lot barrier.

If Bob is not even allowed on the property I would get too excited about his rally for hang 3's at Torrey... just a thought.

I personally think hang 3's should get to fly there.

....Today, December 20th, 2008, David Beardslee and I entered the Torrey Pines Gliderport and asserted our right to be on that property and to fly. We brought a camera crew and witnesses, and we followed all proper procedures (including signing in and paying). We were not challenged by any staff members at that site.
.....

I think that's the latest in a long story with many unpleasant details.

The idea popped into my head that our board of directors could appoint a paraglider pilot or instructor on to our board of directors.
