John, Shadd, Dave T. and I painted the new ramp at Pete's today. It really looks good. I will give the deck an additional coat of paint tomorrow afternoon to finish it off.
There is a group from Wisconsin visiting this week, and with the combination of them and a large number of locals showing up this evening, there were about 15 or 20 hang gliders in the air this evening. It was breezy enough that there were only 2 or 3 paragliders up for most of the time. Conditions looked slightly cross at launch, but when I launched, it was definitely a Viagra day.
I was visiting with Dangerous Dave this evening, and we decided to do a Mastercard commercial that goes something like this:
New top of the line, state of the art racing glider - $7,000.00
New Instruments/GPS navigation system - $2,000.00
New State of the art, top of the line, super aerodynamic racing harness - $1,500.00
Latest super high fashion, super aerodynamic hang gliding sunglasses - $300.00
Your buddy seeing the whites of your eyes on both sides of the said sunglasses when you are launching on the first platform tow you have done in 15 years - PRICELESS!!!
