Hello everyone. My name is Jim and yes I'm talking to you all the way from Southern California... Canyon Country to be exact. My home site is Kagel (Sylmar).... I look forward to many great posts with you guys.........

Hey Jim, Great to hear from a US hangie! I've seen so many great youtube vids from your region it looks incredible. My mate just moved to LA and I was hoping to visit him soon and do some flying when I'm there. How easy is it to rent a wing and fly in the region? When would be a good time to go? Tom

Hey Tom.... Good to hear from you! No doubt we do have a lot of good flying around here... We are a lucky bunch, and we know it! Pack your bags and pay us a visit. Summer is the most consistant part of the year, but not the best time of year for epic conditions. Early Spring and late Fall offer up some truly great flying, but its hit and miss at best. Both Sylmar and Chrestline are flyable most of the year... Except for January/Febuary and a potintial El Nino event, getting some airtime is usually not a problem. As far as equipment is concerned, Joe Greblo at Windsports (818 367-2430) would be the guy to talk to. He will no doubt take care of all your needs.

Thanks Jim, that's cool. I hope to visit him in March so fingers crossed for the weather! I will try the contact you gave me..

happy landings

Tom
