Where would you go?
I don't mean to start an intrastate civil war, but I've got a business trip
coming up where I will be in San Francisco one day, then have an empty day, and then be in either LA or San Diego. I'd like to fly on that empty day. Where would you go & why?

I'd like to fly on that empty day. Where would you go & why? I would go to Disneyland. They have a hang-glider ride there, which is probably a better value than driving multiple hours to some FBO in the middle of fall to get a $100 sled ride.

Windhaven Glider Rides at Santa Ynez, about 30 miles NW of Santa
Barbara. Just off the 101 freeway on your way from SF to LA, it is as likely as anywhere else to be soarable this time of year. There aren't many other places where a 5 minute tow will put you over 4,000' mountains just 5 miles from the ocean.

This time of year, my vote would be Warner Springs (Sky Sailing
(http://www.skysailing.com/)), near San Diego. Haven't been to Minden (yet) but I have been to WS once and it was beautiful and the folks were great. -ted/2NO

I was told it was closed, but haven't visited there for some time. Glad I was told wrong. Thanks Marc. bumper
