Reason 28, 29, 30.... why I don't paraglide
When I earned my pilot's license a fellow pilot gave me a short but
serious talk about how dangerous soaring is, and how many friends had been lost, etc. Later in the day he nearly took off with airbrakes deployed. Fortunately I did not pick up the wing but instead pointed at the air brakes. My point is not to criticize the pilot, but to point out that we are all human and sometimes make mistakes. To me this is what makes soaring dangerous... falling into a routine and then falling out of it without realizing you have done so. |
