Moderator, cross-post to topic " Long Term Goals".

An air show will happen at the nearby Air Force base early next month. Planning to go.

are you planning to make some footage?

Yes, I will take photos and videos. Hopefully I'll have time to put them on my website. I still haven't done that for the last air show years ago.

Glider fly in is this weekend, air show the next. Glider folk are mostly para-gliders now. Hang gliders are less popular.

I looked up para-gliders...

Eighty-two people faced to accidents, 18 of whom were dead and 64 were injured, were recorded. Sixty-nine (84.2%) were male and 13 (15.8%) were female. Their mean age was 37.5 years (18–71).

Description fits perfectly in this topic "Short Term Plans"

@Steinie Ha ha ha

I'm not a pilot nor one to maniacally defend the activity but para-gliding is among the safer outdoor activities. Your data is from 242,355 flights. The chance per flight of injury is 0.034% with 0.007% fatal. Being injured on playground equipment 0.054% or playing volleyball 0.015%. The chance of being murdered in the US in 2019 was 0.006%.

Plenty of options for an Inferno Hike.
