Spotted 1 L300 and 3 L400's on Saturday June 8th in Lumby,BC

Post by trialsmaster2 »

Found the mother load of Delicas in Lumby yesterday (June 8th 2013) at the landing area for the hang gliding and paragliding meet that was part of Lumby Days. If we knew there would be so many Delicas there, we would have driven ours out there (had the white 1987 Toyota Celica GT Four).

There was one white low roof L300 with mitsumaple and delica.ca stickers on the back.
There was a first gen black L400 parked right next to the landing area.
We spotted a white first gen L400 parked out in the camping area by a boler looking trailer.
Just when we were leaving, a green second gen L400 set up to carry hang gliders on the roof pulled in.

Pretty impressive sight for the Okanagan, I'd say :-D

I'd guess that the white L300 would be Stewart. Avid hang glider and very talented, too. Watched some of his flight vids not long ago, breath taking. Also some fascinating stories about mid air collisions with spiders (from Earth) flying silk carpets.

Falco.

Haha, the camera was packed up and we were on our way out of there, when we spotted all the Delicas. I took a few photos from where our friend took off hang gliding...so, maybe if I zoom in enough on the photos looking back at the landing area, a few of the pixels will actually be Delicas :-)

Just got off the phone with Stewart ~ it was in fact him. In fact he won the meet (it was competition flying).
