Greetings! I will be in Tucson next two weeks! I am interested to go kiting, flying, hiking and available any day during these weeks. Unfortunately I do not have car. My phone is 415 202 47 41. I am so happy to be here again!
I would like to pay my due for membership: can I do it on line?

Hi, Irnia

Welcome back! I hope you get some good flying in while you're here. Lew Smith goes out during the week, so check here each day and you may find you have someone to go with.

If you'd like to pay your dues on-line, you can use the web page at http://www.sahga.com/MemberFrm/MemberFrm.html where we use PayPal to accept credit card payments.

Irina,
Glad to hear that you will be visiting for a few weeks. I would be happy to take you to Mustang - or maybe Box. The other sites (like Miller) are too much for my current skill level (I had a 10 year period of no flying and my launches are now even worse than when I last flew with you!). I have your phone number and will call you whenever the wind looks good and I have time to fly. I also post a message on this site before I go flying. My home phone is 749-1296.
This is the Christmas holiday season and I have lots of duties as a grandparent (and great grandparent), so my flying days will be limited.

Lew,
I wonder if you're America's only Great Grandparent who's an active PG pilot?

Lew: I will check the post it on the site and then will call you.
Hope we can do it if the weather all right as well Christmas shopping! I am looking forward for Mustang flights/hike as well Box!

Welcome Back!

Silly girl, evey one knows, you can't pay "your dues"..."On-line" What is this world coming too? Period & question mark, ecamlation. Violation of laws of the universe, and all.

But you can pay them late some night at my house no problem. Pay Pal and good vibes accepted. Fully accreddited, satisfaction garrrentied. (south of mason dixie line that is).

Fred thank you! Sorry to hear about your back injury. If you go to kite I am in. I did not fly three years and I did kite this week-end and realize that I want to fly very much and the same time need to be more familiar with my equipment in order to be on safe side again.

Hi Ken,

I look the Gunther song yes it was hit in Sweden 2004 and I saw it on TV as clip many many time! Thank you to post it.

Will you go to fly by the way?

I am mostly interested in flying again than anything else and hoped that this Message Board is about fly as it was always been....

Hey Irina!

I'm hoping to do some kiting and flying over the holidays, so I'll keep you informed of my plans.

Irina,

I plan to take my wing to the park early afternoon Saturday for some kiting. I am going to fabricate a video camera mount to put up in the wing.

I have another commitment at 4PM, so it will probably be something like 1PM-4PM.

Where is a good place to kite? I need to do ALOT of kiting. I'm living in Oro Valley and working at Tucson airport. Thank you!

Great kiting on Saturday. Nice consistent breeze out of the north.

Stuart, just find a big grassy park or soccer field with minimal structure upwind to make mechanical turbulence.
