Re: PG Instructors & Observers

I used to be a PG instructor, but no more.
I'd be happy to help out with observer duties, if someone wanted to observerify me. (That's a word, right? of course it is....)
Who is in charge of that sort of thing hereabouts?

Re: Recommendations for Paraglider Training

I used to instruct PG in Southern California, and was just there getting my H3.
send me note with a # if you'd like some in depth info on instructors and conditions back that way.

Re: California made me Bi

No, I started with PG's about 1996.
Solo'd a lawn dart around 2003.

California made me Bi

I'm in SoCal to do some flying. I used to teach Paragliding at Marshall/Crestline and flew hang gliders a bit WAY back. Never really enough to consider myself a hang pilot, though. Got out here on Saturday, flew my bag and settled in to watch the Acro hang competition from the LZ. You probably know ...

Re: Am i a member?!

Thanks David.
I will be coming out to fly. I am a P4 (used to be a tandem instructor in Los Angeles) and i am heading back to LA in June to get my Hang2. I soloed awhile back and need some brushing up.
Hope to see you on the hill soon.

Re: Am i a member?!

apparently not.
Tried it again last month. Filled out web forms. Sent in a check. nada.
Will endeavor to give random people money when i go flying.
Very strange. Normally clubs WANT new members, and WANT to take your money.

Re: Daniel's Saturday

I've sent off my membership, but have no idea where the sites are-I'd love to head to Daniels with my bag-I'm a P4, and i'm looking forward to meeting some locals and getting with the site programs (do's, don'ts, restricted lz's etc.)

Anybody got some directions for me?
Thanks,

Re: Dickey's/Woodstock Sunday 9 August?

Watched a couple of folks launch PG's off of the Pulpit a while ago. Looks like a nice easy launch. I did not have my ushpa up to date at the time, so i did not fly. Count me in if folks are going there.

Will work on getting those permits for next time.
