| I have asked a few questions and got great responses,but not recently.I asked why people build a hangglider or reserve chute and not put a tag on it so you know where it came from and all the info on it.I saw James stuff paperwork into my second glider which is handing from the ceiling of the shop and my first one has been together 8 times.Trying to get into hill training before I go to the Oregon school to get ahead of the curvre.my chute is too small and need a Q-330 and radio helmet set-up and have asked if reserve chutes include the hangglider or a paraglider or sky diving situation. RED,you have been great ! the club up here is very stand-offish and I will bring that up later.My best friend told me his doctor said someone got killed at Blanchard last year.I e-mailed North Cascades Soaring Club and got no answer.What is going on?I have a limp but can run 8 steps and have watched many videos of guys running four steps to launch.Where there is a will there is a way.James told me he taught a guy with one leg,he could hop,and another guy used rollerblades.Don't need either. |

| Maybe you might get a response if you didn't sound like you were on the last day of a four day meth binge. Sorry, but that had to be the most disjounted, non sequiter post I have ever read. Spooky. |

blue, no one was killed at our sites last year that I know of. The reason that some old chutes have no name is a question that I can not answer, sorry. The club up here is a normal club as far as I know, I've attended one meeting and am thinking of joining. Have you just showed up at the LZ and offered to drive? ,,, that can often break the ice and help get you integrated into the group, thy that it might help. _________________ U.S.H.G.A. # 20275 |
