Looking for the local Millennium pilot

Christian · Post by **Christian** » Wed Jul 13, 2005 7:46 am

I am new to the server but many of you know me since I have been flying for about 25 years. I spend most of my time at Ridgeley these days so I see a lot of you all the time.

I have decided to make a change in my flying and I am going to get a Millennium. Adam is looking for one for me so it may take a little while. i met a local pilot a few years ago who flys one. He was down at Ridgely and his wing was beautiful.. I think his name is Gary Beyer.

If anyone knows Gary or who this is, please let me know. My email address is c.titone@comcast.net.

Thanks,

Christian

FYI - Joe Evans in Oregon has an Extacy 160 for $2000.

Ya sure ya want a Millie? Right side joystick control--I watched a guy launch one at Torrey Pines--he simply nosed over and tumbled down the face of the cliff. Lots more conventional weight shift/actuated ridgids around.

I just want to explain why I am looking for info on the Millennium. I have been flying for 25 years and I am tired of laying on my belly.. I have wanted one of these foot launchable sailplanes for a long time (since the Swift first came out). I plan to fly it mostly at Ridgely or some other tow field but some day I may decide to foot launch it.

This glider is not for everyone and if I decide I hate it, I will get rid of it.. I just can't wait to try it out.

Sounds good to me!

(although, there are lots of supine harnesses out there). I'm wondering if parts and support for the Millie may be hard to come by. I haven't seen one in the air for many years.

Or maybe you might like to try paragliding!

I still have vivid memories of you spanking us locals when you came to fly with us.

Best of luck wherever your next flying avenue takes you...
