Where did they go? by Flash
About maybe 7 or 8 years ago, there was a good bit of ultralight activity on this forum, as well as the ultralight groups. Some guy named Julian (I STR) moved to Henderson, NV, and had a forum of sorts regarding U/L. Anybody have any idea of what became of that bunch? Thanks,
