It's also my wife's birthday today, she is 75 and we've been married for 51 years. YEOW! Can't Stop Now.

Let's all take a breath and pay tribute to these true pioneers of the sport of Hang Gliding. Recreational Hang Gliding starts with the word, "Re-Create", think about it.

John Heiney did loops over my house.

Let's take a breath and remember
"Hang Gliding is the escape from the gravity secured penitentiary of every day life" John Heiney.

"Two kinds of fear, morbid fear that keeps you on the couch scrolling the glass and pushing the buttons with your finger, healthy fear keeps you safe doing something like this so, shape up you hamburgers" John Heiney
