    Is it time for a search warrant and raid?

    in reply to: AUA ratings #16112

    Accident reports? Where do they go when submitted to the USHPA?

    Where is the narrative, the story, shared with the tribe?

    Tom, If youre only visiting here couple times per year, you’d be better off buying a monthly every visit.

    Now that we have solid structure we could install a club owned ptz cam.

    I havent heard any reports about the bandwidth or continuity of the internet connection lately though. Might not be feasible yet.

    Not on you Dave Webb. We just didnt anticipate that happening.

    Chris, I’ve asked the CSS (not Webb) webmaster looking into it. He will be contacting you.

    The signup should be fixed up pretty soon so associates can sign up.

    in reply to: Associate Membership Missing #15741

    Too many people were buying the associate membership who werent qualified for it. It is for those people related to full regular members, such as spouse, son daughter, living in same household. Like Masayo, Majo, Noel and perhaps another one or two whom I’m not personally familiar.

    Ordinarily CSS has only ~3 to 5 associate members, after membership signups went online, that jumped up to 40. Hmmm.  A look at the list of those associate members led to the conclusion that the online store wasnt coded well enough to prevent it from being gamed.  It might be getting rewritten.

    Maybe the description of that membership class wasnt explained well enough, I dunno.

    Paul’s mother, Barb, is flying in from Wisconsin Tuesday midday to retrieve Paul’s car from the towing and storage racketeer in Redlands. She would like to have an informal remembrance starting around 5pm for a couple hours.  Come on out if you can free up Tues evening.

    His Mom’s (Barb) email address is barbvoigt@hotmail.com if you want to send a note, remembrance or condolence.

    velcro can also become fatigued if you open it too often. I had a harness that liked to try and spit the chute out the side. Glancing at the velcro seams should be part of the preflight along with the handle pins.  Replace weak velcro with the sewn in type only.

    Pilot is still in intensive care, back on a ventilator. After the latest surgery, his condition has taken a turn for the worse.

    Keep Wade in your thoughts this week.

    in reply to: 4/2/2022 Accident #14859

    I’m finding out the injured pilot wasnt as rogue as I initially thought. Still gathering info.

    One thing is certain. He is indeed very injured. Keep him in your thoughts and send healing vibes his way. Recovery and positive outcome is the most important component in this incident now.

    Santa Barbara trained P2 flying without local instructor guide, without membership, without signoff, flying mid day what looke like a stall spin in from over 100ft landing on Ranch property by the shower tower. Now listed in critical condition with broken bones.
