Man, that rigid wing is so smooth. I never pass up a chance to see them in flight. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you Phil, I fly rigid since two years and I like it a lot. Just watching your video from Owens Valley, great video! Back in 1990 I was flying hanglider in Owens Valley to (Wills Wing HP2). What a great time! I flew a few times to Luning, Nevada.

@@tonymarty4500 Nice flights! Will you be taking your rigid down to the Owens? First time I flew the Owens was in a SS Wills glider called the Omega (220 sq. ft.). The next year I was back with a shiny new UP Comet.185. Conditions on the second trip were so strong and rowdy (the worst turbulence I've ever experienced) that when I packed up to leave, I made sure I had everything because I knew I'd never come back, and I haven't. These flights were on the White Mountain side of the Owens. BTW, glad you enjoyed the vintage Owens footage.
