Flying with the paraglider was a beautiful sight with the pilot suspended below
a long eliptical wing, tugging on the risers and grinning at me. We must have
spent an hour together, some ridge, some thermal. He was able to stay above me.
I figure his wing loading was way down around 2.5 lb/sq/ft. I needed 6K to
start a final glide back to Williams, finally got it and took off on my 33 mile
final glide. He went back to his launch ridge utilizing his 7:1 glide ratio.

It looked like fun, but I don't have the guts to do that, I NEED structure
around me.
