I didn't fly yesterday High cross up winds. although it did straighten out,...
I wasn't feeling up to the launch,... or flying the conditions. a little rusty on this glider. leery on launch.
No Paras in the Air, no Local pilots (THAT I TRUST) around at the time.
BY PERSONAL EXPERIENCE,... I dont trust Any of the Gliderport staff

One of the regulars, a friend (wont name) was trying to convince me to launch. he's skilled but always stoned and I HEARD is one of the investors at the Gliderport with VIP status. (CAUTION WILL ROBERTSON)
He wasn't set up to fly... yet telling others to Go. He made a comment saying he thinks my glider has a left turn in it by observation in Ground handling LOL.... He doesn't normally fly a High performance glider in the conditions present. There was Also a crew of 4 visiting pilots that were waiting for who's 1st. I was in the hot seat. I doubt they weren't going if I wasn't... out of all of us only the brave Atos flew .

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
MY unnamed friend Blew My TRUST years ago, partly my fault for trusting a Questionable Crew... I paid Hard
He was involved as wire crew in my crash (blown Launch 5 years ago) where the wire crew held on to long and cartwheeled me into the ground breaking my pelvis, totaling the Glider. .... see photo pg. 8 of now 75
I would love to see that Crash report (if any & and probably falsified) and hold the Glideport responsible for damages, along with few other issues of being threatened for years...
(the USHPA's insurance is useless for many reasons, & so who is liable for Gliderport Crew negligence if anyone)

>>> NO MORE HANDs ON SIDE WIRES unless wing JUMPS <<<
there mistake of holding too long on almost killed Me ~ as they joked about it later to my face.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Later in the day,... one of the pro's JOHN showed Up which I have tremendous respect for and someone I listen to.
there was also (I Believe) one of his students, they both flew.
*** note, a good point: He made a comment to be concerning putting My Life or trust in the Hands of another on launch.
along with a few comments on base tube Launching as being Safer....
Is Base tube Launching a special rating skill or just pilot preference ?

Anyways something to think about , I Live to fly another day
Comments are always welcome

Talk to Joe Spinney about converting the TRX bones to a fresh new Predator. Predators fly way, way better than TRXs.

Immortel (ad vitam) 2004 - Full Movie: https://youtu.be/yzHJf-am0QY?t=24

The film takes place in New York City in the year 2095 where genetically altered humans live side by side with unaltered men and women, and where Central Park has been mysteriously encased in an "intrusion zone" where people who attempt to enter are instantly killed. A strange pyramid has appeared over the city; inside, the gods of ancient Egypt have judgedHorus, one of their fellow gods, to cease his immortality.
In the city below, Jill, a young woman with blue hair is arrested. Not completely human, her tissues appear to be no more than a few months old according to an examining physician, although her physical form is already that of an adult. She does also possess a number of secret powers, including one that enables her to procreate with gods, though she knows nothing of this. Horus is given a limited time to interact with the humans of New York and procreate. During his search for a host body, Horus encounters Nikopol, a rebel condemned to 30 years of hibernation who escapes his prison, due to a mechanical accident, one year early.
Horus has been unsuccessful in attempting to take over the bodies of other humans; due to an incompatibility with the genetic alterations humans have undergone, the host bodies self-destruct while attempting to accommodate a god. Nikopol's body is acceptable as it has been frozen in prison/storage and not undergone the genetic changes causing the rejections. Horus takes partial control of Nikopol's body and starts looking for a woman he can mate with to provide him a son before his death sentence is carried out. When Horus/Nikopol discovers Jill, they become entangled in a web of murder and intrigue.
