I had wanted to hang glide in Oz before we left, but I never got around to emailing any of the Aussie pilots contingent to see if they knew anyone in Western Australia. When we got there internet was sparse so I looked the only other place I could think of - the phone book. Sure enough there were a couple paragliding schools and one hang gliding school. Shaun Wallace who runs Light Flight Hang Gliding answered the phone with a rich Aussie accent and was super friendly from the start. I told him I was an advanced pilot (I would live to eat those words) from the states looking to get some airtime and meet the local community. His reply was "Well get the bloody hell down here!" (Okay that's a little to canned, but it was something like that) I couldn't because of our dinner plans, but we made plans to meet up Friday in the morning at the same spot.
