He's looking for your help, as are we.


We are now well into our month long fund raising drive. Right in the middle of
begging for money our web site went down for a few days as we moved to our new
virtual server. And just before we started our site was down when our web host
updated our server's operating system (which gave us a good reason to move to a
virtual server). To deal with these issues I have relaxed and let Scare take his course
(on the weekends after work) as he
patched up the permissions for our various files (who invented that god awful
system?) and moved databases.


This is where we have to press our readers just little bit harder to remind them
that we are running as fast as we can to get this publication up and running for
the upcoming season of competition and free flying. We're here to lift your
spirits and remind you that this in all in fun.


Belinda and I are smiling and just so happy to be around so many new hang
gliding students learning as fast as they can from Mitch and Mark here at Quest
Air. What great weather. What a cool environment.


We really do need your financial (and other) support. Scare does this on his
spare time and has a real job. The income we get from the Oz Report is very
minor, but any helps. Please think about supporting us.


We wanted to especially thank Lisa Cain who used to be our neighbor and Moyes
Dragonfly tug pilot here at Quest Air and who now lives up in Virginia and
occasionally flies tug for Steve Wendt at Blue Sky and who sent us a dollar a
day for a year (in one fell swoop). A good number of you have sent in $100+ or
$200. Thanks so much to these very generous individuals, Fred Bickford, Kraig
Coomber, Jeffrey Curtis, Jim Yocom, Larry Smith, Mike Duffy, Quinn Cornwell,
Gary D. McIntire, Oliver Gregory, Thomas C Ide, Orlando Stephenson, and C David Gibson. Jeez, I hope
I didn't forget someone.


We have a boat load of premiums to encourage you to support Scare and I as we
keep the Oz Report delivering the latest hang gliding news. See all the premiums
available to you here:
http://ozreport.com/premiums.php. Given that we are providing all these
premiums, it would be great if subscribers went a little bit beyond the minimum
$20 donation/subscription, as many of you have, and we are very grateful for
that.




At the end of March I'll set up a random number generator to choose who get the
premiums from the list of 2012 Oz Report subscribers. There will be an order to
that list and those subscribers chosen will get to send in an ordered list of
their preferred premiums and they will be awarded based on the order of
subscribers chosen to receive premiums.


If you are sending in a check do it quickly so that I will have it in time to
put you on the list to possibly receive a premium.




Please, help us out. Support something that you find useful so that it can
continue to be there for you.


You can send $20 or $30 or more for a yearly subscription/donation. To pay for
your subscription with your credit card or PayPal account:
