I got a call recently from Pat Mosteller who is an instructor for the San Diego Community College system's "Rediscovering San Diego" Continuing Education class. Pat was interested in bringing her class (mostly senior citizens) to see some hang gliding at Torrey Pines. Her classes were scheduled for the mornings of Tuesday, November 13th, and Thursday, November 15th, 2012.

Unfortunately, the weather doesn't always comply with class schedules and the morning of the 13th was not a good time to fly. But it was a great time to set up Little Hawk for the class. Here are some of the photos:
