John Dickenson father of modern hang gliding.

Post by Dan T »

I thought I'd entertain my cabin fevered friends with this clip I picked up off of Youtube. It's an interview with Francis Rogollo, Bill Moyes and John Dickenson who Bill Moyes claims is the father of modern hanggliding. Some great historical footage. I enjoyed it, I hope you do.
