San Diego Pilots:

La Salina PPG gathering, July 8th and 9th.  Make reservations immediately.  Plan to stay Saturday night, but consider Sunday night for an easier border crossing Monday.  Also consider coming down on Friday.  RV hookup spots available but reservations are required.

A great option for accommodations is Baja Brent's pilot Bed and Breakfast at:

www.bajabrent.com

Brent is a fabulous host, a great pilot, and his cozy B&B is right on the Beach.  Brent also knows the 600 foot La Salina ridge site better than anyone, and can serve as a guide for those interested in PG.  You can PG from the ridge all the way to the beach!

Also, please sign up for this SoCalBajaPPG Yahoo list started by Michael Purdy from World Talk Radio:

There are many reasons to get local San Diego pilots flying together:

1. You can learn technique and site information from each other.

2. It's safer and way more fun to fly together.

3. We can keep each other safe and responsible to preserve the sport.

Here's a list of the pilots from our area.  It is interesting to note the various aviation backgrounds.  Please forgive me if I've made an error.  Please forward this to others that you think would want to come.
