New Pilot, Needs Wingmen

Post by heaviek »

Bruce Kavanagh, A British National Team Hang Glider pilot has recently moved to the DC area. I won't be able to get out flying for at least the next few weekends. He is a phenomenal pilot and super nice guy. Could the usual suspects keep an eye out for him and help intro him to the site du jour for any good days?

Thanks!

That's great news.
Is he a member of CHGPA or this forum yet?
Looking forward to meeting him.
Yay to more HG pilots around!
Felix.

That's so cool! I'll be sure to give him a proper CHGPA welcome: ask him if he's certain he's qualified to fly his wing and insinuate that his training may not have prepared him for our tricky launches.

Blue skies,

Thanks for the heads-up Kev. Bruce's forum registration was readily identified, and has been activated.

I'm on the forum now. Thanks for the intro Kev (I'm blushing!) and for the welcome from the rest of you. I'm thinking of heading to Highland tomorrow.

Cheers,
Bruce
