I am so excited I can hardly stand it. I'll be going for my first lesson tomorrow with my son. Now that''s what I call a fathers day! My dad learned to fly the self taught method and used to let me and my friends fly his home builts years ago. I just found out about Packsaddle and towing options in Texas! So now I'll be training the next 4 days with Jeff in the Austin area! Woooo Hoooo!

Cool! You'll be pleasantly pleased with today's gliders - a bit heavier but easier to launch and land. Have a great Father's Day! thumbsup
Looks like the Austin area is gonna have a three digit hot one. Take lots of H2O. Too bad you can't get some of our rain (after Father's Day of course). We've yet to even have to water our lawn this year! It's raining right now (NE WA).
