It seems, that I am constantly looking for ways so that I will be able tobe able to recover both Physically and Mentally from My Pounding. One item that I hope to continue to play well after I have fully recovered is My Gibson SG. Yes, My SG is a good tool to use. I find Myself fighting a challenge, a challenge to rid Myself of the Spacticity that runs in. my left Arm. Also as I am able to achieve control over the neck of My SG with My Left Hand. I will be able to exercise My Brain by composing a song or two.

So, here I sit thinking about the possibilities. I mean I am weighing less than 200 Pounds. I know from talking with John that when John was selling new Predators (The Predator is the Most awesome Glider ever Designed) za Jesus John said that regarding a Pilot 's Weight alone. John would cause advise that the perspective Predator should buy a 142 Predator if He or She was less than 200 Pounds. My last weighing. I weighed 195 Pounds. This is for Me a Fun thought. I just Might to see about stepping down in Wing Area, to a 142. I am laughing to Myself as I have been punching out this Text.

. , - . :REACERH.-.-. : Ok I am wondering if anyone has experienced a condition when Flying the same Glider. Both before and after when You had lost a Third of Your Body Weight? I mean in any case the last time that I Flew My Predator zI weighed 298 pounds. Oh around Three Weeks ago I weighed 195 Pounds. I cannot be the only z pilot to loose a Third of His Body Weight. If one of You have in deed have lost a Third of Your Body weight while continuing to Fly the same Glider. Please respond by posting about Your Experience. Thanks Everyone Chris McK6

O. (Short packing is The Answer to My XC Problems). I am a Pilot who 16 Years ago, I was a proud, happy, totally content with My incredible 158 Predator. But as great a Glider iis It can be subject to that dreaded condition that can strike any of Us. I mean I have been on Glide between Thermals. I have been Chris, You really should be thinking about setting up a D-B-F+F. Being able to Short-Pack My Predator will allow Mr to put off having to set up a DBF because If Zi were to land far from a road, I could simply short Pack My Predator then pack it out to an. Far bike road .. ..... ....OK John get ready to put Your Thinking CAP on.
