Those Skywackers are at it again! This from Phil: "ATTENTION All pilots, As you all ready know, June 12 - 14 will be our annual EAGLE ROCK fly-in....and again this year on Sat night we will be having our big cook-out there. The club will furnish cold sides and maybe other goodies to eat for our...

Great news Dan. I understand that Felipe chairs the USHPA Towing Comittee, and that tow operations may be his main focus. It appears that you (Dan) have helped to bring more attention and awareness of the concerns, needs, and challenges of the Mountain Flying community in Region 9. With a variety of...

I'm not sure who is on the ballot for what...maybe that's listed here somewhere and I missed it.

Might not matter to me, as I will not make it to the Meeting, but it may matter to others.

Does the USHPA require a Safety Officer for your (our) Club ?
Do you have an Events Coordinator?

That H3 Checklist I spoke of:

Well..I think I got a little carried away there. Sorry Dan ! I think I'm stinkin' up your thread. If we drop "with observer" from "H2/P2 with observer"...we will have just H2/P2. I don't think we want that. Some have suggested we insert some other term, Like: Sponsor, or Site Gui...

That Lookout Mtn Colorado program looks excellent. Some things that I did not see defined is what an "advanced Hang 2" is. They do define what an advanced P2 is. Interesting that only Local Novices can fly there.....not visiting Novice pilots. Visiting pilots must be H3/P3 (Intermediate) T...

i think that the Crestline Soaring Society (Marshall/Crestline) has pretty darn solid guidelines for their Sites and Airpark. Their sites are rated as H3/P3; but they allow some of the sites to be flown by Novice Pilots (H2/P2) if they have an Instructor Endorsement. From that point on, he should fl...

Thanks Matthew. Is there an avenue for the membership to get concerns onto the agenda for the upcoming March 28 meeting? Does that agenda need to be approved by the Board? It seems that there are, beyond the elections, currents events that would like to be discussed, voted upon, and start being impl...

I too have only been here a couple of years, but not flying very often these days. Really looking forward to more flying, meeting more of you, and flying more venues in Region 9. I think East facing venues generally offer a better opportunity for getting up and breaking out earlier in the day. I hop...

Northwest...steady..clouds building? Anyone considering Woodstock?

Mr. Dan T .........(not to be confused with Dan Tuck) It's tough to beat Marshall/Crestline for the Huge/Smooth Evening Glass; however, Soboba can be quite magical in the evening. There are several possibilirties there. The 4-Wheel ATV can carry a couple of pilots...and the Flight Gear goes in a tra...

HMMMM.. I must learn more of this Bills Hill !
Glad you all got some of that.

this is what I'm seeing as a forecast:

OHH...Nevermind. 1st clue....colossal thunderstorm in that direction. 2nd....... sudden temperature drop (I'm sure just locally) 3rd......standing in the sunshine...getting pelted by very large raindrops. Thanks for humoring me Matt! Maybe I should take up Bowling....or *gasp*..find a girlfriend. ok...

I'm thinking about Daniels this evening?..I could be there about 6pm...maybe too late huh? and it looks like it might be ok at Daniels for tomorrow...but possible thunderstorms?...again!!....STILL?!!...like every day!!!!!!! Greg "from Elsinore" Staunton, VA 951-551-8341 glaunt@aol.com

Woodstock rocks!! What a gorgeous place....every bit as scenic as I imagined from Dan Tucks photos and vids. Cycling NW to NNW...a bit strong for PGs 'til about 2pm...about the time I arrived. Nice flat bottom cumies at about 5500. 2 1/2 hr flight for me in my bag...got to 5100ft 2x...once by chargi...

I'm headed for the Outer Banks for some Dune Gooning. Looks like it might even be soarable! Hey Jesse ! ..hope you can make it...I've got a glider you can fly. I've always really enjoyed the little Club Contests...bomb drop...spot landing and the like. Pylons and spot landing sound like fun to me!.....

Ok..so I did have the right notion...1pm..Daniels LZ I have flown Daniels before...and I think you were there. To answer your Q's.... I'm a P3...never tried for the P4 rating...I'm sure I qualify..7 1/2 yrs paragliding...mostly mountain flying in Southern California...some small XC's. Also a a H4......

OK...new kid from driving from Staunton, VA...is IN !!

What time should I be in the LZ?...Matt?..is that ETA for Daniels or the rendezvous at the Shell Station?
I think I should be at Daniels by 1pm..but I'm new around here....Local advice welcomed.
