Looks like fun Aussiebill. What happens if something goes wrong up there? I mean how do you get down safly, or is it just a chance you take? Coll seeing the kangroos or wallabys by the runway. Thanks for sharing,

Wow, tht looks like fun. Here, that would be classified as an ultralight and no pilots license is required. The mortality rate is pretty low too if you don't count John Denver. I saw one on TV that had a big cargo chute and if something critical broke it would employ the chute and the whole thing pilot and all would float down to a reasonably soft landing. Monty

Looks like a fun sport. They do it around here at the dry lakes.
