PGs could practically land anywhere if they’re skilled enough
Yes , your are correct ; but less than 1/2 , of the PG pilots , and less than 30% HG pilots , in this club , (from what I see) could make a safe approach into the landing aria , without the use of the ranch property ; (especially if there are more than two pilots in the pattern at once.

Thanks for posting the video Jana ; it was nice of you to take the time in doing so !!!!
As was mentioned ; the ranch was originally developed to help secure a better approach to the LZ .
Here is a proposal I’d like to make to All CSS members ; both PG and HG pilots :
Your next 5 landings , into the LZ ; pretend there are 20′ palm trees surrounding the entire perimeter of the current Ranch property , and Do Not use the ranch property for your approach . A pilot will immediately notice just how important the ranch property is ; for making a safe approach into the current LZ.
I fly both PG and Rigid wings , and the Rigid wing can be made to loose altitude at a much steeper and safer decent rate, than any Rogallo wing on the market ; so I am confident that me and my wing can and will land without using the ranch as an approach. The PG’s on a heavy day of traffic ; you are in trouble , without the ranch property available for your approach.
Just saying : Bille Floyd

I sold near 3,200 rides at Torrey ; from 1980 to 1990.

There is Talk to type for text now-a-days ; Best of both worlds , when done from a video !!

OR :
Just make a video recording ; then post it on Youtube for a month, and if anyone wants to watch it :
well they can. The little computer recording sticks, are really cheap ; and then it is a permanent record !
