Winter trip to Brazil

Post by Flying Lobster »

Although I really can't afford it--I'm doing a trip to world-famous Governador Valadares Jan 15 through Jan 26.

A friend of mine, Ray Leonard, has bought a house there and is opening up a bed and breakfast operation catering to pilots, as well as guided tours for both hang gliders and paragliders. Ray has many year's experience flying and doing business in Brazil (married to a local and speaks Portuguese) and is a master pilot in both HG and PG. My function is a facilatator--I make no money and am just trying to get a group together to go have some fun. I'm looking for a small group of no more than 4 other pilots to go. You can find out more by going to Ray's Website at: http://www.pyramid.net/advspts/.
