15,000 ft, Paragliding Las Vegas

A look at the mountains south of Las Vegas from 15,000 feet. The mountains I'm flying over are 6,000' to 8,500' high. http://desertskywalkers.com/

On which flightlevel it is forbidden by law in US?

[macklow]

18,000 feet unless one gets special permission from the FAA to go higher.

Man, you've got balls. I'm an airplane pilot, and you are taking a risk at 15k. It's an awesome view, but you are radar invisible to aircraft...plus at risk of hypoxia without O2 above 14k.

Fly over Area 51 and take some pictures

Nice flight. I've done 11000' at Piedrahita but not as that high. It's a special view that's for sure.

@macklow Very cool,but aren't you worried about an IFR aircraft drilling you? You are very close to class B airspace. I would love to fly that glider.
