Mark Webber talking about the HGAA

[Bob Kuczewski]

There's a topic on hanggliding.org (http://www.hanggliding.org/viewtopic.php?t=12650) where:

Everyone could just join the HGAA.

Couldn't hurt.

That exercise in ego was counter productive to growing the sport.

I feel it was one eager beaver that built his dam in the wrong spot and flooded out the effort.

It was remarkable to see the HGAA grow from nothing to a thriving bunch of pilots excited about building a new national hang gliding association under the leadership of Scott Wise. It was even more remarkable to see how quickly it collapsed when Jack Axaopoulos took over in an attempt to "grow the organization".

So I wonder who the "eager beaver" was that Mark mentioned? Mark?
