Soaring flight in SZD-51 Junior at Kent Gliding Club

Nothing exciting - just a soaring flight. Long. As we had only one single sitter available we limited the flight to 1h. When I got to cloud case I had to go down and land tp pass the glider to the next pilot in the queue. Chapters: 38:25 Cloudbase 49:45 Landing

It was a very disappointing flight - my flying was terrible and I made many mistakes(but of course I did enjoy flying). I took off very late (when the glider became available, the Club was having a lunch break, then after waiting for 1 hour in the aerotow queue - with many people cutting the queue, I decided to not take an aerotow at 3:30pm and fly off the winch). My flying was substandard (maj...

    Your airspeed indicator seems really... weird. 0 is at the 7:30 position? And I've never seen a red arc, usually it's just a red line to indicate Vne, but it also seems to be wrap around but there isn't a second set of speeds?

    maybe this can be a wake up call to get some (more?) instruction in a two seater. your stick movements during the aerobatics looked very "choppy" (not smooth and precise). that's not how a competent and proficient pilot flies. if you can't fly aerobatics precisely and stay ahead of the airplane at all times, then don't do it. there's no shame in that. getting your privileges suspended probably sucks, but it seems like a good lesson. good job not trying to return to the airfield and choosing a safe outlanding though.

    I did my 1st sideslip on an approach having had only 10 hours. I had read about it the night before. Piece of cake. Scared the crap out of my instructor, though. "Don't do shit like that without telling me first,." he shouted.

    Risky. You pitched up a lot there, if you stalled or worse spun, it could have ended badly. Leave the gear up if you’re that late I. The circuit. A good wheels up landing is better than a crash.

    Nice slip, though this is not a side slip, it is a forward slip. In a side slip, the glider's nose is kept aligned with the runway all along the approach despite sidewind.

      @@eckiger_luki6424 Actually, it's not. Side slip is when you want to counter side wind without crabbing. What is shown in this video is a forward slip (also called control crossing), where you use yaw to present the size of the fuselage to the oncoming air to increase the drag, and then slip in the opposite direction to maintain course.
