Re: Paraglider Flies into Powerlines

Now that would be the first think I'd be looking for, if I were hang gliding: power lines.

Sometimes the wind just drags you.
Good friend of mine who was an experienced para-glider died when he was swooped by wind into a mountain.

Re: Paraglider Flies into Powerlines

First rule of para-gliding. Never fly higher than you are willing to fall from. I learned a painful lesson, luckily from only 80 ft.
