The guy shows up all happy and pumped. I stopped and took a quick moment to capture the view. Dirty truck, some dude with an old flamed beanie smiling at the helm with a sunburned face. I look at his trusty steed tied down on his under padded rack, the glider bag all ripped and faded with portions of the leading edge sail exposed. And I say to myself. " There is the new 20011 Ed Levin Speed Gliding Champion..." ...... BANG!

Great Job Noman. You did good representin the MLSR boys. Good on you sir.

Fantastic job. Congratulations!

You realize all of us H-2 pilots are still trying to figure out how to stay in the air
and here you go pulling this stunt.

Very impressive thumbsup

Mad props to Noman! You flew like a champ!

Thanks to Brian and Chris for putting on the comp. Best $20 I've spent in a long time! I hope I can make next years comp to hang with you boys some more. Texas and AZ are fun comps too, love to see more people show up!

Don't forget your US National Team. We're working hard to make you all proud this summer in Italy. Our t-shirts will be available soon and we can use all the help we can get!

See ya in the skies,
Zippy
(Zac Majors)

BTW- I loved my Stealth KPL back in the day
