FLYING LIKE A BIRD ...

WELCOME TO MY HOMEPAGE

For  as long as I can remember , I have always dreamed of flying without engine, without noise ... Just me  and my "wings"  in the big, blue sky ...

For many years now, I have been very happily hang gliding over the Blue Ridge mountains. I started  by taking lessons with PVCC through its physical education department.

However, recently, I have wanted to experiment with other modes of flying. During a vacation last summer, I  flew several  times with a paraglider over the beautiful green hills of northern California ...

And I also had the opportunity to take my maiden flight in a glider. It turned out to be a scary, yet awesome experience...

" Once you have tasted flight, you will walk the earth with your eyes turned forever skyward, for there you have been ,and there you long to return."
