Near mid-air at the Fort

Postby Steve Rodrigues » Sat Sep 16, 2006 5:48 pm

There was a near miss at the Fort recently when a pilot overshot his top landing just as another pilot was zooming through the launch window. It could have been real ugly.

Pilots making a landing approach should not just check the LZ for pedestrians but also check the cliff for approaching hang gliders.

And before you make a pass by launch, you might want to look and see who's trying to land.

Please mention this to your buddies, the neck you save could be your own!
