PG weekdays

Post by guy didier »

Anyone interested in paragliding during the week? I live in DC and can provide a ride to two more people.

Also always interested, incl weekdays, though some days work for me and others not. Anyway, I am back around NoVA after 2+ months out of country/area, and would like to join. Cautionary is that, although I've flown all local sites, plural times, still a P-2 and require an observer for most. But, if protocols and weather provide, yes, call me up, too!

I am interested also. Evening flights at Woodstock are easy as I work in Fair Lakes out Rt 66. Tomorrow evening looks like it might be possible with a NW wind that diminishes after 6PM.

To avoid rush ours, DC pilots will have to leave around 2pm. How late can we fly? What is/are the best way (s) to identify which site is flyable?

Regarding observers... I'm a P3 with just over 100 flights, and I still view myself as a beginner pilot. So I'm happy to observe --whatever that means-- but do not feel I can advise.
What are the requirements to be an observer?

Totally into week days flying, although I need an observer... would be great if you are ! :)
I'm in DC too, flexible hours, and free wednesdays.

Thanks !
