Thanks fedmich I hope you get your chance. I used to daydream about this at age 16 had a couple of hang gliding posters hanging in my room. I started flying at 17, that was 30 years ago this summer. Where do you live? is there a hang gliding community?

I'm from Philippines and there's no gliding community in here I think. But for sky diving there is, but it cost a great deal of fortune. so maybe after I'm done with my most essential expenses in life, like house, marriage, etc.I could go and try this out to satisfy my heart :) I would also want to go and visit other country to go gliding. well Im still at a young age 25, so I got a lot of more years to do that.

Thanks Martin, It's a very cool feature your Overlay Graphics! Using it this first time has me thinking about the Flying & Ground School Lesson opportunities. Nice work!
