And then I broke the right tipwand...damn. It had cracks in
it and I was postponing replacing them. Good thing it broke
now and not later in the flight. I was kinda relief then!

 

Plan B: setup the Atlas.

 

Fly the atlas.

Good weather + good company = great time

Checking my battens for symmetry every 10 flights or so.

 

 

Les preflights his paraglider.
 

 

A paper glider folded with an A4 piece of paper. It really
has an exceptional glide. It can fly easily more than 20
meters.
 

Bad weather to blame for the next couple of posts

Too long?...nope

Rory and myself drove all the way from Kaohsiung to
Puli (Nantou) with the glider hanging out the back like this.
The glider's nose is resting on the dashboard. This is not the
way to transport a hang glider but the lack of a roof rack and
very short notice forced us to do just that. This is Rory's
company car, I might add.

almost 4 years ago!
