If he flies over the center a dried lake bed at dawn on a calm day so he can land in any direction, has a vario so he can set his decent rate for landing, he can probably do it wi...- Nothing like a dry lake, I'm surprised that only Disney has caught on to the idea (see 44FD) - and I think they closed their 360 degree ultralight field down recently.
