Collection (montage) of flights at the training hill at Susquehanna Flight Park near Cooperstown NY
on Saturday 11-21-2009. I took all video, and did
not fly (was recuperating from minor injuries from
a car crash earlier in month).

  • ...That is the instructor's style - - I anticipated that when I began, as I assumed I would make typical 'beginner' errors, and need to swiftly correct them before a belly landing for instance became a more serious contact with the ground. I've been

    back again and again, and the instructor is good to talk to and friendly, and has

    greatly helped me stay safe and continue using good judgment.

  • ...training hill is a maximum of 150 feet high; also has takeoffs at its 100' and 40' levels. -jwm

  • ...yep...makes it much easier to run hard

    and smooth, plus land without catching

    wheels / base tube on tall vegetation.

    a well-groomed hill.
