New gliders need their own space!

Glad it came out OK!

In defense of my new winged brother & new member to TEAM VATOS. No it lands like a FALCON ON STERIODS & flies like a 2 hour orgasm my little flex wing friends.

Seems to me the middle of the first section of your moniker is rather appropriate and eminently descriptive.

However, you should watch yourself on that abuse of rigid-wing Viagra; two more hours and you're supposed to get to the ER.

I guess you felt you needed it to keep it up, though.

I am all natural my little flexwing friend.

This can be a new event for the Dahlsten Cup - - the ultimate restricted landing field competition.

Thanks for the picture, Chippy.

My new aviation name - - SIBLsuck?

Larry,

Maybe it is time to update your Avatar - something that includes the ATOS. Chip might have a photo or two that he is willing to let you use.

Don -

I think you're right about the Avatar. Davis Straub published a cool photo that Sebastian took of my first approach at Sylmar LZ.

I'll try to set a new Avatar, although I needed Chip's help for this one.

I have another photo of the ATOS in my restricted landing field, but I can't figure out how to insert it right here. Wait a minute, maybe I did it ! Let's see.

I don't think so. Can anybody help me out here? I put the cursor on that little

in the line that appears above the message box, and hit Alt P. You can see what I got.

However, I did get my Mac laptop to connect to the wireless. Thanks again for the info for that, Chip.

Doesn't hurt us too much hearing it from one of those everyone knows as the ultimate in "limpy".

Sabitchen: your little flex wing friends want to know if you'll be setting up tomorrow so you can fly with us Saturday.

OOOOOHHHHHH that was a good one! In fact I am still on top of Kagel I am 1/2 way set up, having a little problem with the 80mph winds, I should be done by the Saturday when you guys get here with your little high performance Barbie kites, my little flex wing friend.

Let me know if you need any help. I'll drive up and park the Bronco on that thing so you won't have to worry about losing it, my stiff little friend.

Thanks for the new Avatar, Mr. System Administrator.

GOOFBALLS!

Inserting pictures in forum is so eeeasy. I use Windows 98. I was sorry to give up my crystal radio. If I can do it anybody can....

1.If the picture is already on the Internet, place cursor on picture, right-click, find Properties and copy the URL.
2. Paste the URL it in your forum message.
3. Highlight it and hit "Img" above the message-composition box.
4. Hit Preview to see if it worked.

If it's your picture (that is, it exists only in your computer) you have to upload it to the WEb first, using a free service like www.webshots.com. Then do the above.

Thanks, Christian.

I think there might be a more "fitting" name for you and your new glider that might better represent your landing skills.

Listen here for the suggestion.

Excellent choice, Jeff. Larry, we dub thee,

"ROCKETMAN!"

Maybe you should put the old tube back on the 'burb' just for looks.
