Sylmar Hang Gliding Association

Hold On,

I think I'd like to buy it for my friend who happens to be a Nigerian prince who I am sheltering money for in my bank account...What was that account number again?

Hello All, I had been meaning to mention to Joe that my dad recently retired from Los Angeles Building and Safety after working there since 1970. Anyhow I had been hearing others at the field discussing the B&S issues and I asked my dad about it and asked if he would be willing to look the plans...

Hello All, Being relatively new to this I can say that I do like the method in which Windsports uses to teach where safety is paramount. Since Hangliding is more about flying and less to do about checklists and such I can see how it can be easy to become complacent which could lead to unsafe habits ...

Hey Janyce,

Work has me so crazy busy right now working long hours to get to this Fridays Deadline and I am away this weekend climbing, but I am interested in the ladder. I will give you a call on Monday and maybe we can coordinate a day to meet next week.

Take care,

Marc

Janyce,

Is this still available?

Marc

This was the first HG contest I had ever seen. I had a great time lying in the grass watching everyone spot land and also got to meet a few new people. Hopefully next year I can be more then a spectator.

Marc

Wow what an amazing video.

I just solo'd last week and hope I will be at a point to fly big sur next year. Looks liek I may end up selling all of my rock climbing gear to buy HG gear..

Marc

Hello, I may be interested in your helmet. Any idea what model it is? I am unsure if I would need a large or extra large, but your similar in height and weight as I am so it may fit. What color is it? Chad, in regards to the chute, I may know someone who has a large chute for sale if this one is too...

Hello, While int he truck on the way up to Kagel a group of us discussed using PDA based soaring software for HG's just as is done in sialplanes. I currently have Soaringpilot and am learning how to use it, but one of the persons in the car (cant remember name) mentioned another software that was mo...

Hello, Before I place an order with Joe for a new harness I figured I would see if anyone had one gathering dust they would be willing to part with. I am 6'3" and 235 lbs so I need a harness that is pretty big. The knee hangers I have used thus far on my tandems do not support me too well so I ...

Hello Joel, I can not help with the harness, but I know windsports has a nice Falcon 2 for sale. Its nearly new and in great shape. The sail is very crisp and I think it has very few hours on it. I almost bought it myself, but it was a bit out of my price range at the time. It has a blue leading edg...

Well I never thought homebrew would be so important. Actualy it is my dad who is the brewer, but I may be able to convince him to bring some. I had planned on hanging out in th LZ on one of the days and will bring him with me if he does not have any plans. He is really into brewing and makes some se...

Hello all, Sorta new here, and plan to join the club soon. For now all my money is going into training and buying gear, but once all the gear is bought then I can pay the club initiation. Ahyhow, upon poking around the net I see how other areas use the scooter tow method as well as auto tow. I am ju...

Just reread my pust and I meant unsure it was allowed and not sure it was allowed. Anyhow, thanks for clearing that up and I will bring something else.

Marc

Hello, Beer and flying dont mix too well, but I was sure if it is allowed at the party or if standard beach rules apply. If it is allowed my dad is a homebrewer and i could bring some with me. He even has a portable bar with 13 different taps, but that is a bit overkill I think. Otherwise i will bri...

Hello, I am looking to store a falcon 225 that I will most leikely be buying in a few weeks. I will also join the club shortly as well. I was curious if there are any spaces available in the cheaper storage box and if not how can I get on a waiting list. I will most likely join the club as soon as I...

Hello George, Thanks for the info and I will ask Joe next time I take a lesson what the particulars are. I have taken 3 beach lessons thus far and got my H1 and I did my first tandem last week and we were up for 52 minutes which was great. Hopefully the used Falcon I intend to purchase will be in go...

hello, I just started lessons with Joe and Lynden and I would like to attend this if possible. Do I need to be a member of the club to attend. Also, there is a good chance I will be buying a used Falcon on 09/07 and had planned on spending the 8th at dockweiler gettting practice. Will the facility b...
