Hi Gang
Last summer I took this picture while flying my Kolb. This ski jump is in my home town, last weekend they had an International Ski Jumping tournament, the longest jump was 464 feet, the record is 468 feet.
A few years ago, John Hauck and John Williamson flew over the ski jump, while visiting my friend Scott Trask.

Bill, the photos are great.

Here are a couple of Winter in Texas photos I took today while out flying. (It only got to 78 degrees today)

Bill,

The landing area of that ski jump looks like a good place to do a zero roll landing in a Kolb.... up hill of course. Just flare really hard as you are about to hit the hill and plop!, you have arrived.
