A planned hang gliding trip to Algodonales in March 2017 looks to be a disaster when a low pressure sets up over southern Spain where the Azores high should be. Some quick thinking and a change of plans takes us to the famous hang gliding site of Ager, Catalan country, in the foothills of the Pyrenees. The first day was a write-off but we managed to fly the following four days in a row, including some time flying with thermal marking feathered friends - the vultures.
A massive thank you to Joel, who owns the hang gliding school in Ager (www.zenithaventura.com) for stepping in at the last minute and helping us with accommodation.

I had the honor of flying with a California Condor for a brief moment, near Crestline Park, in San Bernardino, CA, back in '78/'79, cruising at just over 10K ft and looking down on Lake Arrowhead. I noticed this Condor flying just below and behind me, giving me a real good once-over. I must have said something or made an exclamation, 'cause no sooner did I take notice, than it peeled off and I never saw it again. The only other pilot close to me was a rigid wing delta, who was the guy that told me my altitude. One of the most memorable flights from my youth.

Years ago I was soaring a ridge in Wa. and sneaked up behind a turkey vulture and came within 12" of snagging some tail feathers. It turned it's head, saw me and did a split 'S". I read that a hang glider pilot in Colorado (Charlie Baugman?) actually got tailfeathers off an eagle. Bet he still has them.

Great video! I really love the videos you post. Nice balance of visuals, music and editing. I was wondering if I could send you some music in consideration for placement in your videos. My music is similar in genre and style to the videos you use and i think they could bring some value to you. Thanks!
