Bob, wow, I had forgotten about some of those pictures, very cool collage. Thanks guys for kind thoughts.

I still have some observed flights to do by Rebar and 10 hours of Marshal flights before I am able to fly off of Crestline solo, but I think I am probably done for the season, I'll be going at it hot and heavy starting next spring.

Hey Dennis,

I think I've known you for about a year now. You've come a long way in that year and you've learned a lot of lessons (some the easy way, and some the not-so-easy way). I think you've got an appreciation for what flight is all about - both the joys and the risks. In the long run, I think that will make you a better pilot when your time comes.

Congratulations again.

Dennis it is great to hear about a new Pilot getting His ratings . Here is to hopping that You continue on with this Glorrios experience called Free Flight.

I hope that You continuer on with Flying. For as far as I Know there is nothing else that even comes Close to Flying a HG. So here is to hoping that the Day soon comes when you Get high and fly far. Good By Denis.

Dennis , I do not Know You. But I Do know how it felt Myself when I got My Hang Two oh about =twenty Years ago, Those were truly great times regarding My Flying. I had as i am sure that You and heck everyone else had have for that reason. I mean i Had my first Flight in excess of 10,000 Fwwr of Altitude, First Flight where I was able to stay aloft for 5 Hours using only thermal Lift to stay in the Air. First XC Flight. Yes those and other First Flights were so enjoyable.

Si Dennis, once Again, Good Luck with Your Flying.
