I enclose a pic from 1964-65.
The first Rogallo wing hang glider design.
The pilot is the first threee diamond soaring pilot,
suitable dressed in club jacket, white shirt and tie, gray slacks and shiny loafers !
Flying down the dunes right off the LAX runway !
The launcher is Richard Miller former editor of Soaring Magazine.
"Innocent bystanders are Sylvia Colton well known journalist from Soaring,
And myself: Ben Jansson, designer of the BJ-1( Duster) DynaMite.
Regards.
"Do not try this at home" !
