Loop A only with restrooms and showers

All pilots who wish to fly must be current USHPA rated H3 (*H2) or higher .

****Hang two's****

*******Hang 2 pilots must be sponsored by an observer or an instructor. An
instructor must inform a club officer as soon as possible. The sponsor must be present at launch with the Hang 2 pilot when they launch.

Directions: Take State Highway 132 east towards Coulterville. Go to Horseshoe Bend Recreation Area and look for the Landing Zone gate to your left. If you end up in Historic Coulterville, do not despair. Drive back down to the west a couple miles and look for the LZ near the lake. The gate to the LZ should be accessible for the weekend. Pilots normally meet in the LZ, load up onto a 4WD and head to the locked launch gate. Please don’t hesitate to ask others (at the LZ) if you need a ride to launch or offer a ride if you have the room.

" They would like to wait a while to have celebration of Ken’s life so that people can plan for the event and make arrangements to be there."

The Exchequer Bike Park can be easily accessed from the Barrett Cove Recreation Area, located along the northwestern shore of Lake McClure in Mariposa County. Barrett Cove offers a host of amenities including overnight tent camping, park cabins, convenience stores and snack bars.

Bring your Kayaks and swimming trunks as well.

I'll be there to celebrate the life of one of the best pilots and friends and person could ask for.

If you have met him you will be there too. If not come anyway and be ready for a good time, he wouldn't want it any other way.

Flying Friday also, LZ at 11, see you there.

Hey B! You're NO KM! But...The Big MC wouldn't be the same without you.

For years I've struggled trying to make sense of all of the mindsets and approaches to flying. From extremely safety conscious to extremely bold.

Maybe all's we are all looking for is Balance and Freedom?

I've always felt that being extremely safe or extremely bold are opposite poles of the spectrum. And both have equal consequence.

Flying has the ultimate sense of true freedom in my opinion. It takes a special type of human being to be safe and bold!

Huh? Only thing I have ever seen him display is skill. That is something we don't all share equally. You're right, f--- that guy. Call the cops on him the next time he shows up. Bash away, he will still smoke you as a pilot. I get it, nobody likes to get beat by a dude putting in a quarter effort with shredded boots wearing sweats and a ragged shirt burned from welding slag, and a mouth worse than my mothers.
