LOW AND SLOW: MAN FLIES ACROSS COUNTRY IN POWERED PARACHUTE
For many pilots, the joy of flying lies in getting a bird's-eye view of
the land. Baron Tayler, of Robesonia, Pennsylvania, is getting a good, long
look at the United States, flying low and slow across the country in a
Voyager powered parachute. Tayler took off May 10 from the deck of the "USS
Midway" in San Diego and will land on the "USS Yorktown" in Mount Pleasant,
South Carolina. Last weekend he successfully made it through the Rocky
Mountains' Raton Pass in New Mexico at 8,100 feet msl. His goal is to bring
awareness to the powered parachutes. He still has nearly three dozen planned
stops at cities ( http://www.redbaroncoasttocoast.com/Main/FlightPlan ) along
the way. Tayler keeps a road log, photos, and video footage of the journey
online ( http://www.redbaroncoasttocoast.com ).

At least he does not have to worry about tie downs or trying to find a hanger.
