Filmed sometime in the mid 70's. There used to be 10-15 gliders at a time flying from various launches. enjoy

hi, so I expressed idea's to steve about creating some video content at the fort. I know you have lots of old and up to date video footage of the fort, we should team up and make some videos..!!.

idea: make a site introduction video, a video (steve's idea) of a good flight path to westlake, some flight paths of landing in varied conditons, and one that would be a kick a** enterainment video.

anyone who is interested let's start a discussion and the goal would be sometime maybe in august post it on the site.
fly safe..thx..Van

Hey Vann!
Sounds great, I have raw video data from my helmet cam, I'm sure it can be distilled down to a great instruction as well as entertaining videos. I need to mount my camera to the keel and nose to provide some variation in video framing. I have one small request.. please please please don't use Lenny Kravitz "I wanna fly" track. I wanna puke when I hear that over used song in hang gliding videos!
