any pilots, hang gliders, paragliders???

[seismic wonder2]

I enjoy putzing around in a cessna 172, hang gliding the local hills, or paragliding at La Jolla cliffs.
Anyone else have the flying bug??

My hubby flies an ultralight.

I have the flying bug, but can't do anything about it.... My Dad however had a 172 and a Piper Aztec. He would let me "fly" the 172 when he had them, but he sold them both. I miss flying...

For a few summers in my early 20's, I drove the chase van for a hot air balloon owned by Seagrams Corporation. But have never been near a balloon since.

I'm a body pilot, as I myself am the body & wings... does that count in your book?

I'm also a parachute pilot, but have been busy doing other things for the last few years, so I'm not current.

Body Pilot?
I think I saw that on TV. Looks like a flying squerril type thing?

Looks like way too much fun!

I have a powered paraglider similar to an ultralight and parachute mixed.
I have a 26 HP engine and prop strapped to my back with a paraglider above.

I want an Ultra light, mabe a quicksilver or Rans. look lke fun.
