Hang gliding
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Hang gliding is a recreational activity and competitive sport closely related to gliding , but using much more minimalistic craft basically consisting (often, but not necessarily) of a metal-framed fabric wing , with the pilot mounted on a harness hanging from the wing frame and exercising control by moving their weight against a triangular bar also attached to the frame. Many early experiments with gliding flight throughout the late 19th century were performed using craft that would now be considered hang gliders, and interest in the sport continued throughout the 20th century

More Information
Hang gliding is defined by the U.S. Hang Gliding Association as "low-speed, light-weight, unpowered, human flight in devices which are capable of being footlaunched and are capable of gliding and soaring flight." Hang gliding may be appropriate in parks and forests that were established to provide a wide variety of recreational activities, such as the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area, but in most circumstances it is inappropriate in a park unit established for hiking and backpacking, such as the A.T. Concerns include the potential for congregation of large groups of people at launch sites (which usually coincide with A.T. overlooks), conflicts with hikers seeking solitude, and vehicular access. However, hang gliding usually is a low-impact, individual form of recreation and under the right circumstances these potential impacts can be fully mitigated. The question of the appropriateness of hang gliding along the Appalachian Trail was first discussed in 1981, when several unorganized groups of hang gliders requested permission from the NPS A.T. Park Office (ATPO) to use various launch sites along the Trail in the mid-Atlantic region. At the time, no clear policy or direction pertaining to this relatively new sport existed within the Trail community. Individuals within ATPO, ATC, and the affected Trail clubs debated the issue for some time before a decision finally was made to issue a permit to the Harlem Valley Hang Gliding Club for a launch site at Hosner Mountain in Dutchess County, New York. Shortly thereafter, the National Park Service Washington Office issued new direction requiring parks to seek a special regulation to allow hang gliding, and the ATPO terminated the permit.

SAHPA will then send out the ballot papers by 7 September 2001.

I tried to keep SAHPA away from rules and regulations that will be ignored anyways

And make SAHPA more efficient by applying new technologies like internet websites and email to communicate with the members to keep everyone in the picture. Some issues that need to be addressed by the next SAHPA committee: The previous issue of the late March newsletter cost you R20.
