None. <E>:D</E> <br/> <br/> <B>Noting</B> Davis here is talking mostly about the monster big Paraglider launch on the West face. <br/> 100m North of it is an excellent HG launch, also carpeted. Its could benefit from a touch up too: Some dirt fill, then re-install the carpets.<br/> The South Launch, the East HG Launch and the NE (Hang Gliding) Launch area at the far right of launch are just fine. Good decent slopes.<br/> <br/> The launch surface there has settled over the past 20 years of use and a few rocks now project up on either side of the runway.<br/> &gt; Splash said: Seems Davis is not impressed but you are.<br/> <br/> Davis is a tow freak. Me thinks he couldn't foot launch if his life depended on it. <E>:oops:</E><br/> If y'all listened only to Davis, you'd almost think "go to Oz to tow inland or don't go!"<br/> <br/> <URL url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q7-hvIEbtlQ&list=UUuM1mS-mn1GgLWg0WMNZ2Sg&index=42&feature=plcp"><LINK_TEXT text="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q7-hvIEb ... ature=plcp">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q7-hvIEbtlQ&list=UUuM1mS-mn1GgLWg0WMNZ2Sg&index=42&feature=plcp</LINK_TEXT></URL><br/> <br/> Me? IMHO Borah = One of the best / easiest foot launch sites on planet earth. $185,000 has gone into launch;<br/> - let alone how much for the two roads up to it and the Saddle connector road to the West Launch! <br/> - Sheesh Davis&acirc;&euro;&brvbar; You do Em-Bare-ASss the hell out of yourself from thyme to time. <IMG src="http://www.hanggliding.org/images/smiles/rofl.gif"><URL url="http://www.hanggliding.org/images/smiles/rofl.gif">http://www.hanggliding.org/images/smiles/rofl.gif</URL></IMG><br/> <br/> If they ever start human cloning, Godfrey should be candidate #1.<br/> <br/> I asked Godfrey and Bob Smith if they could:<br/> A. Add a middle rack with good padded to the Borah Bashers (the Landcrusers) then increase the height of the front rack so that glider support is level from end to end. <br/> The Carbon Blade Wing crowd is reluctant to use them as is now.<br/> <br/> B. Bob Smith has a tractor drawn rock picker that can pick up rocks the size of luggage.<br/> - 1. The West bailout PG Lz slopes down to the SW corner, meaning lots of ground skimming by HGers. <br/> It also needs N-S and E-W landing strips cleared of rocks and ankle twisters. There are rocks scattered all over the darn field there. <br/> As is, it makes you right nervous when landing.<br/> <br/> - 2. The far East HG bombout (at the lone tree turnoff to Borah) also needs a N-S landing strip cleared of hazard rocks hidden in the grass.<br/> <br/> - in both cases only a light surface cleaning is needed. No need to dig deep.<br/> <br/> For hangies see the local club website at: <URL url="http://www.mss.org.au/">http://www.mss.org.au/</URL><br/> <br/> He's swamped busy, but I hope they can find time to fix up this last resort West LZ at least in order to encourage more HG visitors.<br/> ____________<br/> <br/> As a side note, the new love of his live is a travel agent from Sydney. IMHO she's a keeper!<br/> So if you want to express your gratitude and support to Godfrey think about booking your trips through her. <br/> - I asked if he could put a link to her business contact info onto his website to help folks like us.<br/> <br/> This is that <B>AWEFUL</B> <E>:lol:</E> West Paragliding Launch Davis is talking about (before it was carptetted) shown in strong conditions. <E>:roll:</E> <br/> <COLOR color="white">.</COLOR></r> {/XML} in /home/davisstraub/public_html/davisstraub/OZ/forum/vendor/s9e/text-formatter/src/Renderer.php:48 Stack trace: #0 /home/davisstraub/public_html/davisstraub/OZ/forum/vendor/s9e/text-formatter/src/Renderers/PHP.php(303): s9e\TextFormatter\Renderer->loadXML('<r>In Side Dent...') #1 /home/davisstraub/public_html/davisstraub/OZ/forum/vendor/s9e/text-formatter/src/Renderer.php(78): s9e\TextFormatter\Renderers\PHP->renderRichText('<r>In Side Dent...') #2 /home/davisstraub/public_html/davisstraub/OZ/forum/phpbb/textformatter/s9e/renderer.php(250): s9e\TextFormatter\Renderer->render('<r>In Side Dent...') #3 /home/davisstraub/public_html/davisstraub/OZ/forum/includes/functions_content.php(600): phpbb\textformatter\s9e\renderer->render('<r>In Side Dent...') #4 /home/davisstraub/public_html/davisstraub/OZ/forum/viewtopic.php(1800): generate_text_for_display('<r>In Side Dent...', '62f', '', 2, true) #5 {main} thrown in /home/davisstraub/public_html/davisstraub/OZ/forum/vendor/s9e/text-formatter/src/Renderer.php on line 48
