Here it is and you called me a "Tool Bag".. Logan posts misinformation and blantent lies when he can or thinks he can get away with it. It takes allot of bad things to get banned but it happens. You can be proud of US aviation as the best and freeest in the known world for all these organizations made up of citizen volunteers which include USHPA. Logan has Choosen to align himself with a competing organization of fringe elements like expelled and rebellious pilots who formed USHawks to undermine and replace USHPA.
It is a silly argument because we are stronger together than apart. But the demographics have changed over time so more Para-Glider pilots have more power in USHPA to direct our sport in ways meeting both disciplines needs. The real truth is that many USHPA members are bi-wing meaning fly both types and like all forms of free flight. Hang-Gliding purists want there own beach.. They don't want to share.
Logan is not being honest about his motives or his real goal in misleading concerned people like yourselves who follow this forum. Hang-Gliding acctracts Wild characters and Rebels just like myself. Over time they tend to grow up and become responsible citizens but not all do.
Logan is one of the extreme cases which make up the rank and file of the USHawks who scheme and undermine USHPA out of jealously and contempt for authority of any kind. They will not make good partners with the NPS or other land owners. If these misfits want to come back to USHPA then they are welcome as long as they stop the infighting and offer workable solutions to problems present and future. Logan is just the most recent mouthpiece of USHawks who is now running with a torch to burn down the town.

No other organization tries to imdenify USHPA tries to block non members from public property for the purpose of generating cash and establishing a mock authority over hang gliding. It falsely claims pilot insurance, site insurance and it's ratings are necessary.
It is illegal for government agents to grant a concession like this. Submitted by Logan R on August 9, - pm. Submitted by Ben Reese on August 11, - am. He is no friend to NPS or any other agency..

The latter is called "flying tandem" and allows you to hang glide with minimal training or preparation. If you want to fly solo, you need to sign up for a series of lessons first and complete the first course -- which leads to a USHGA Beginner Rating.
Choose your flight company. California offers numerous opportunities to hang glide, ranging from short, tandem flights to training that will establish you as an expert pilot. Wear comfortable, flexible clothing. Athletic, rubber-soled shoes are a must, as you will have to run several feet to take off in the hang glider, and you might land on your feet as well -- although some hang gliders have wheels to make the landings easier.
On the other hand pot is legal in CA. Mountains always have the right of way. If you've never forgotten anything in your life, you don't need to do a hook-in check. You're going to die anyway so you might as well fly. By Rebardan - Sat Jun 02, pm.
You can call them introductory instructional lessons if you wish. I'll keep calling them rides if you dont mind. Options 10 posts Page 1 of 1 10 posts.
