This is an interesting moment and an interesting photo. I spoke with someone who used to fly with those things and said, I believe that he had actually soared as high as 13,000 feet. Sounds pretty terrifying to me and I think I would insist upon wearing a parachute if I did that.

ciao George,
This is an interesting moment and an interesting photo. I spoke with someone who used to fly with those things and said, I believe that he had actually soared as high as 13,000 feet. Sounds pretty terrifying to me and I think I would insist upon wearing a parachute if I did that.
take care,
Richard
