Wow is right. Terry Sweeney and Tom Peghiny with what must be an early Kestrel A (with the top bubble). Gods walked the earth back then.

I love my modern Falcon, and I think the sport is much safer now than then, but there's something about the "feel" of those old videos that's been lost in our modern hang gliding community.

I'd sure like to get it back.    :(

Either way, that's some fantastic hang gliding footage Joe. Thanks so much for posting it!!!    :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:
