Default Is Flying AGL Legal?

If the skiers at Heavenly (near Minden) all dive head-first into the snow as
a glider approaches, does that mean the glider is too low? Or does it mean
the skiers just need a bit more practice staying upright?

flying "BGL" will surely attract somebody's attention :-)


I once did eight miles at 10 - 200' BGL on mybway back to Sutton Bank.

As we used to say at Portmoak, keen is coming back with heather on the
wingtip. Really keen is coming back with a sandwich on the wingtip.
