Hang Glider Behind A Car

This is my first attempt at a video clip. The original video was shot by a stranger in September 1998. He was watching us when we were setting up for the first test-flight. PS. Thanks for the video tape who ever you were!

Against other's better judgement we thought it would be good fun to test out this 2 axis control micro-light behind a car. I had 2 successful flights.

On the third flight my bro went the highest, but froze, then stalled it and fell about 70 ft tail first, breaking his femur at the mid-span. That put an end to it. But it's still fun to reminice. There's still no better feeling than flying!

Don't sell this contraption > make lawn chairs from it. I have personally known more than one person whose last flight was on this machine. Take some lessons and get to feel that feeling of flight often and abundantly. Put this death trap out of commission. It was a Birdman Atlas wasn't it? I knew the designer who died in a single e ac & fellow who then bought the company who augered in a 2 seater on a frozen lake with a passenger. Something about the tail surfaces not being of adequate size.
