=================
Nov. 27, 2018: 
  • Staff JpF gets cell phone; Joe Greblo mentioned the possibility; the impossible has happened.  
  • Also faster office Internet has been installed.   
  • Advanced PP of  Scott Wise.    
  • The 2016 income tax return was filed; progress for the 2017 report is being made.   When caught up with tax reports, then PPs will receive more attention and certifications will be processed faster.
  • First bus-service decline occurred for a Wing-5 mimic; lessons learned:  cut profile for waiting; look normal; be dressed normally and in gray; have pack pleasant color perhaps same as clothes to lower visual impact; do not be moving around when bus arrives; have pack behind body until bus stops. Maybe aim for two smaller packs plus one taller-thinner pack ... mimic travel luggage perhaps; maybe have leaflet  for driver showing wing.  

=========================================================

Nov. 9, 2018:   
  • ATT outage for Internet is lasting now for five days. Not connected throughout 24 hr of today. It may be time to switch to Spectrum.  And build FTP system for CSULA.
  • Took off "Reinstatement Fee."  Saved text locally. The low need for the policy resulted in the staff voting against having the text up for the public.
  • Drop "Full List." Keep only the segmented A-Z "Family Name" alphabetized lists.  A full list will be too cumbersome. 
  • Changed front index page: deleted link to reinstatement matter, took off "S-SA" leaving just "Otto" for that rating. Added: "Pending Data Input".
    • The domain of ratings certified by USHGRS is: 
      H0, H1, H2, H3, H4, HGP, Otto
      and specials skills, or "Pending Data Input"

  • FFFF matters relative to USHGRS.
  • Launched PP:   Brian Porter, Stephen J. Baran,
  • 7:30 am: Received notion: "If FFFF disappears ideas that are on target seeking fairness without notice, it must be wondered how much safety information FFFF hides from GGNRA."
  • 7:42 am: Received home page appearane source material from volunteer admin Robert Bradley; we will install it very soon.
  • 8:24 a.m: Launched the new gifted code from Robert Bradley for the front page of USHGRS.  Thank you!

  • [x] Addressed issues in internal file:  000ToDo2viaRED.txt
  • 10:22 AM: Sent another request to sg, now broadening the potential discussion group by a wder CC list and wider BCC list expansion.
  • 12:48 Full List will have some unlinked names meaning that certification of rating by USHGRS is underway, perhaps more data is needed to complete the process. The page guide at headline reads: "Unlinked name means "under review, info needed""

  • DM's suggestion last week was examined at staff meeting. The vote was to compromise; the decision for the FullList and the FamilyName list: remove "(RIP)" from line content.  It has been accomplished and launched. Thanks, DM.
  • Attribution for DM's contribution was posted to the world through Oz Report.
  • Organized FTP sister sites. FTP tool has all domains ready now.
  • Thanks to EnergyKiteSystems.net for hosting heavy files for USHGRS.org   Appropriate, as hang gliders are free-flying kite systems with pilot as main anchor tethered to wing; as anchor moves or falls, the anchor pilot tows the upper kited wing; hang gliding is a form of kite flying; there are many ways hang glider flying may produce energy; see how energized we get when we hang glide recreationally.
  • RB is point man on PilotCard system underway.  Trial draft card is being made and examined for system efficiency.  See Pilot Page of  Robert Bradley   for a peek; at the Pilot Page: click "PilotCard" to see the draft version. Pilots could email a photo they suggest for their custom card, or USHGRS could offer background photo per pilot.
