    Someone should jump on this.

    This glider has obviously already been well trained and will know its way around the sky with very little pilot input.

    I have previously been certified for and used Boom (Articulating and Telescopic) and Scissor lifts.  No heavy equipment operator experience outside of riding lawnmowers.   I have added my name to Saturdays work party reservation.

    I also took a couple.  Pilots in front of Crestline over the inversion, and myself looking west as I headed toward the LZ once the wind had shut off at Crestline.

    Thank you for the report Dan.

    Sharing the information in a positive way is a great exercise, and adding your personal experience is a perfect reminder for us all to remain vigilant.  It CAN happen to you.

    If a ballot was sent to your email, regardless of if you received it, then the original one must be voided and a new one sent to a new email address.  The instructions are in a few other posts.

    Such as this one: https://crestlinesoaring.org/topic/the-write-in-candidates-and-the-re-voting-process/

    Thanks John and great idea David.

    I think pilots were previously a bit too loose with flying and landing near the airport and this seems to be fallout from that.  I would think that the barbed wire fence sent a clear enough message and hope we can fix this ourselves without prohibiting our sport from the entire city.

    Thanks everyone.

    I was out of the country and unable to attend.  Is there any update to what was discussed at the meeting?

    While looking for an update on their website I found that the meeting could have been attended via Zoom.  I wish I had known that before.  The link to that meeting info is below in case it gets updated and the meetings for this Advisory Board happen every third Thursday at 6pm.

    Thank you for the reply here.  If you decide to separate the wing and concertina bag I am still interested.  Have the Radio and Vario already been spoken for then?

    I know this is an older thread, but it seemed the right place to post.

    Can pilots please be considerate of this area and keep it open for packing?  The last time I was at the airpark there were no less than 4 Wings and harnesses bunched up and and abandoned along the stretch of turf leaving little room for actual packing.

    Thank you everyone.

    I heard a rumor that you were patient and forthcoming with your advice when asked for it.

    Other than that, I try to steer clear of the rumor mill.
