Yeah, 6:10, I agree! Looks like you xc'd to Canada! I loved the paraglider ghosts in the clouds at the beginning too!

@pdutube I went moose seeing w/ my Newfy friends. ;-) I buggered out when it started raining PGs from the clouds.

@quarksire Gosh Quark, I thought I edited out the parts where it was a 12:1 glide back to the LZ. ;-) Old guy? What are you like a whole year older than me?

awesome ;)

[NMERider]

@thatsshit Thanks. Too bad I was alone for most of the flight. Would have made for some great aerial tag.

Wow! Snow in southern California and great music too.

@windmedic Hi Marc - I don't use the tether cam for exactly the reasons you've discovered. I am working on some improvements but am swamped w/ other projects. Cheers, Jonathan

[windmedic]

I see you haven't played with the camera on a tether in a while.....I tried it...a bit to scary with trying to recover it...on to phase two...

@evancohen83 Thanks! We had a guest pilot from Comox, BC. I was up so long that I missed him in the LZ. I hope he had a great flight too.
