Good News: Everything is coming together for a memorable 40 Year Oregon
Hang Gliding Reunion Antique Glider Fly-in and Pilot Conference!
Really Good News: Frank Colver (USHGA #7, Colver Vario, Colver Sailwing,
Cover of Groundskimmer, 1st Otto Meet) is driving up from Costa Mesa
with a rare 20 foot Eipper. He will talk about his role in the beginning
of modern HG. He was there at the first HG meet ever held in the world.
Please call every pilot you have ever known and make sure they know
about this one-time event.
Not So Good news: The following release was sent to Eric at USHPA on
Dec. 20. On follow-up a few weeks later, nobody had seen it so it was
re-submitted to Terry. On follow-up a few weeks later nobody had seen
it, the march magazine deadline had been missed, but it would be in the
next. On follow up a few weeks later, the ushpa online calendar of
events listed our event WITH THE WRONG DATES. The release was (yes)
re-submitted a THIRD time. USHPA has never sent me a confirmation of any
communication sent or action taken. I assumed a 5 month lead time was
sufficient to get our event into the calendar.
The dates on the online calendar have been corrected, but the April
Magazine may or may not be. The correct dates are still May 11-12-13,
2012
May 11-13 Pacific City, OR
