Looking for Hanglider or Trike

[asra]

Im fairly new to Hangliding, but have friends and family who are into it. Im chasing a second hand hanglider or trike for the right price. If it needs some work that's ok. Have only flown once and am looking to get more into it. []Pm or reply to this message with infocheersDan

Your best bet is to buy a Pacific Flyer magazine or the RAA (old AUF) mag from the newsagent.telfFlying - The knack lies in learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss. (Douglas Adams-The Hitch-Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy)

DanGet onto you local CFI who will normally know of any good machines for sale. A good trike will set you back about 12K +, but if you want an all weather machine, then forget the rag wing, and buy yourself a gyro. Believe me, I know !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Regards Sam.

I'd have thought the wing would be ideal to shelter from the sun or rain when watching us in the sky and waiting for the wind to die down so they can go flying too Sam.Pete

Dan,You could try the Hang Glider Federation as well, if it still exists, It's been a while so I'm not sure how you'd find them. There is a 'Soaring Australia' magazine or similar which you might be able to source some prospects from.Try a few of the links on this page:http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&l...tnG=SearchGood luck.Sam, Pete;You'd be right about that, at the Hunter Valley club we fly while the bloke down the road looks on.. from his trike.Cheers,Nick.

Thanks for the info, i am currently checking out a few leads. I prolly should look into the rules and regs for flying trikes also.
