Thanks for the advice. I agree that flying alone is never a good idea. I never flew alone once as a hang glider pilot but do find myself doing so now (despite being the guy that found James Victor). I will always call my wife and let her know several minutes prior to my launch. If she doesn't see me airborne shortly then she has to drive out and investigate. It's not optimum but I think it is reasonable.

I agree with the venturi effect which is why I didn't continue into no-man's land after I topped out. I will head over the back soon someday but it will be with a good thermal that is continuing to drift in light winds.
