ORIGINAL: TTARK

Gee Art we have chewed too much of the same dirt, I grew up in Paramount and North Hollywood, way back in the sixties, went to Santa Monica many times, Surfed Hunington most of my youth, and we were both Special Forces. The world is just too small

Now this is just to unreal here!!!! I lived in Culver city and went to culver City high in the early 60's. I surfed darn near every beach there and use to shoot the pylons at the pier in Santa Monica, use to catch some of the best Bonita off that pier. I sure do wish you weren't so blasted far away as we sure could go down memory lane for hours, Pacific Ocean park was one fun place and we spent our summer weekends there, ah heck I could go on forever.[]

I had a buddy talk me into giving my Tiger Trainer a try. Couldn't get hooked up with the guy that was gonna teach for a few days and apparently my friend couldn't wait.

Amazingly enough I made a few circles before crashing.

Funny part is, is that since learning, I've had a few flights that were SHORTER than the first.

Wife and kids bought me a 'lectric sailplane with a pulse rudder in the 80's 'cause they thought I needed a hobby.
I did.
My first flight was the whole battery charge! 6-7 minutes, and been flying (something) nearly every day since.
Still remember it like yesterday, even the 4+ hour search for it in the high grass.
