Going back in time to the SHGA news letter April 1999:

reprint here:
SYLMAR LZ MILITARIZED
By Investigative Reporter Groundhog

"..Reports first published in the LA Times on Saturday,
March 20, 1999 have confirmed local suspicions that the
SHGA has become the staging area for North Korean airborne
shock troops. As described in the LA Times, South
Korean military are now conducting exercises "…aimed at
repelling any North Koreans who might sail over the demilitarized
zone undetected in hang gliders…The [South
Korean Ministry of Defense] officials said gliders could
cross the DMZ…at an altitude of between 4,600 and 10,800
feet without being picked up by South Korean radar."
A spokesman for the US forces in Korea declined to
comment, but local investigation has identified a high ranking
US Air Force test pilot probing Burbank air traffic radar
capabilities by attempting to fly his hang glider at the prescribed
altitude over Kagel Mountain. It is not known if this
pilot has yet been able to exceed 4,600 feet MSL.
There are unsubstantiated suspicions that in cooperation
with the South Korean Ministry of Defense the FAA is
attempting to improve hang glider detection capabilities. It
is known that the owner of a local hang gliding equipment/military
surplus store has been assisting the Burbank
FAA in this effort. His communications have been under the
guise of preventing jet collisions with high flying hang gliders,
but it is now known that his efforts have resulted in several
gliders being successfully illuminated by newly developed
ground-based radar.
Proof that the SHGA is involved in the plot lies in the
activities of a Scottish national club member by the name of
O'Carlson. An world-renowned expert in the use and applications
of radar detection equipment, he has developed close
business ties with South Korean military officials. In order
to maintain a low profile, O'Carlson may be communicating
with the officials through a network of well positioned civilians
located in Korea, Thailand and the Philippines.
Training for the potential invasion appears to has been
conducted at the El Mirage Dry Lake using a hang glider
tow plane operated by a ex-Hungarian national. At this
remote site, test flights of hang gliders with simulated loads
of assault weapons have been conducted under the cover
story of "having fun." It is suspected that the communist
North Korea has enlisted the pilot 30 years ago while he was
in the Hungarian military, and the long-range North Korean
plot appears to only now becoming revealed.

.."

Things look bad with the confrontation and if we are EMP pulsed back into the stone-age we can still tow by horse.
