Abstract:
Where the Wright Brothers once flew, hang gliders now soar from Jockey's Ridge on the Outer Banks. In all began in 1974 when John Harris opened Kitty Hawk Kites in the garage of the old Nags Head Casino. Now, forty-one years later, there are fifteen retail stores along the state's coastline with plans to open more across the Southeast. Besides the flying school at Nags Head, he has another in New Hampshire, and he has taught over half a million people how to fly.

Abstract:
Jockey's Ridge, located at Nag's Head on the Outer Banks, is the East Coast's tallest sand dune. Now a state park, it is the only one that moves. Over the years, its shifting and moving sands have swallowed a hotel, miniature golf course, a cemetery and a fishing village. It is also North Carolina's most visited state park.
