I just spent 5 hours with a local ultralight aircraft flying club, watching them compete, dropping sand-filled socks and trying to knock over some bowling pins at the end of the runway. These guys were having a ball and were as friendly as teardropers. This "off topic" section doesn't get much action, and I was wondering if any of you camping folks fly ultralights or are somehow involved with them. I am a licensed private pilot and this kind of low and slow flying looks like a lot of fun and one wouldn't have to sell the farm to afford it. Flying has been in my blood for over 50 years and I miss it. Just askin'.
