It was a red and blue parachute ultralight and i was hunting just south of spokane. If anyone else saw it please let me know.
I did call a game warden whose phone number i have and he said he was too far away to get there. But if i find out who it was he would investigate.
If he wouod have landed anywhere near i would have had words with him! I did look for a rock but was more focused on getting a shot at the deer.

There's gotta be an airfield within 20 miles.I spoke with a couple neighbors and they think they might know who it is... he launches from his property fairly often.
do you know what kind of range those things have?

Ultralights don't need an airfield. They can take off and land in almost any clearing!

How many yards to do so ? He could of taken off from a wheat field then, right ?

I don't have a clue about ultralights. I know they seem to crash quite often.

I don't think a 10 gauge would be big enough. :chuckle:

There was an ultra-light buzzing waterfowl hunters in Stanwwod years back.
Lot of goose guns going off( 10 ga).
Poor ultra-light seemed to catch a round and had to land.
Last time we saw him.

At least it was manned and not a drone. Maybe he was scouting :o

You think he was harassing the deer? or just cruising around?he most definitely went out of his way to circle the deer a couple times and tuen come back to smile amd wave at us. Then he continued on last i saw him was about a mile away. None of the neighbors are real happy with him buzzi g arou d so low either.
