Idea: US Hawks to send out formal urge for all US Chambers of Commerce
to support the Recreational Hang Gliding in their communities, especially by
appreciating that permitting premise managers are legally immune
when they permit uncharged uninvited hang gliding to land on their premises. Good deal for the nation
and good deal for the reputation of the involved community. Aviation age is founded on hang gliding.
Continue recreational hang gliding bolsters communities' health. Many local businesses will benefit also
from the mix.

Super topic and a super idea Joe!!!

If you can find email addresses for the various Chambers of Commerce, we can send out just such an announcement. It might be good to send them out by state with links to their state's recreational use statutes.

Please feel free to send any information via email or start a topic as you prefer.   :thumbup:

Lift to you Joe!!!

Every human at every point in history has an opportunity to choose courage over cowardice. Look around and you will find that opportunity in your own time.
