Some additional information given by pilot's public activity:
  • Flew in US airspace:  "Last year a pilot from Norway contacted Dino Dinaso through Dino’s Aero Events web site looking for freestyle hang gliding instruction. Dino referred him to me. Long- story-short, he came to San Diego and spent ten days with me to learn how to loop.

    His name is Jon Gjerde, he is a farmer and he is one of the most enthusiastic pilots that I have met."  ~ John Heiney    SourceHere    circa 2004
