Come to our Draachen Flug Tag * to help us celebrate the DFSC's 10th season of flying in Michigan! In addition to aerotowing, we will also be introducing our new ground-skim scooter tow system for training.
With a 70's theme, we will also be celebrating over 30 years of hang gliding in the US. Bring your old 70's gliders, and wear your old 70's clothes.
Far out!

We will have awards for:
Best 70's glider
Worst 70's glider
Most outrageous 70's clothes/costume
Best bikini (why not?)
We will also have flying-related awards, for:
Most spot landings
Longest time aloft
Highest altitude
Most spectacular whack (without glider damage/injury)
Longest flight from the training hill
Oldest glider to ground-skim scooter tow
Big Joe, our neighbor, will cater this event (per our last chute clinic). Saturday evening picnic/party will be held rain or shine. To help us plan for Joe’s barbeque, please RSVP at 517.223.8683 or cloud9sa@aol.com.
