Soaring flight in SZD-51 Junior at Kent Gliding Club
Переглядів 230Місяць тому
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...

A bit rusty after winter hibernation. I need to improve my r/s coordination. I also forgot what glider I was in 🤦♂️
Field landing after being blown away from the airfield during an aerobatics exercise in Junior

The wind was about 30 kt and I totally mismanaged it. My mistake - lesson learned. As a result, my social (ie passenger) and aerobatics privileges were suspended.

Lovely little Glider . Wonderful to fly .
Very interesting, do you have a school to train glider test pilots in Poland?
they have a box to do Acro and why is the varioOne??
Thanks for sharing this for others to see. That is the right culture! It’s a stupid mistake (like most mistakes really) but easy to determine that after the fact. You’ve solved the situation well. Build up your ego again and keep flying!
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?
I'd do it as a soloed student pilot in a 2-33...lots more shuddering and wind noise though:-).
It looked like you weren't trimmed properly by the way that nose came up when you went for the gear!
😠 'Promo sm'
?
your vertical speed indicator is in villain mode
I've had cut ins happen a couple of times. Once when an instructor was P1 ! Total lack of courtesy as well as dangerous.
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.
Aerobatics at 34 + kts and missing the airfield? Change your mindset if you want get an old pilot. But well done by sharing this. Best wishes for the new year!
All the best!
Making the embarrassing decision to land out in plenty of time, seems like a great mindset to me. Plenty have done this and tried to stretch a glide and it ends in disaster.
Well handled Piotr. Looked like an amazing day to fly👍👍
Thanks 👍
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.
3W: wind wheels water
Checklist, checklist, checklist
Wheels up landing isn't going to kill you, losing speed on final turn will. Your nose went up a lot
I 100% agree. This is solid advice
It's good habit that he dumped the nose right after though.
Can you fit a system to warn you to deploy your landing gear when you descend below certain height?
Yes you can. It’s pretty much standerd on the newer gliders. Unless the cockpit is fully analog of course…
@@Thomipangang Thanks, that does sound like good investment on an older glider.
The usual system is an alarm that beeps when the airbrakes are deployed with the wheel up.
@@colinjacobs176 ... which also is easier and cheaper to build, I'd say.
@@Harm10412not necessarily… the LX has its stall warning once the GS goes below a certain speed. One could program the same for Altitude AGL. However this isn’t really suitable for Flying in the alps, I admit😅
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.
in gliding it is called a side slip.
@@eckiger_luki6424 You can call it a slide slip if you want, but that's a mistake. The detailed explanation in the following link, page 26. www.faa.gov/sites/faa.gov/files/regulations_policies/handbooks_manuals/aviation/glider_handbook/gfh_ch07.pdf
@@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.
in ever official german document about gliding it is called a side slip. its in amerca that they call it forward slip @kardRatzinger
Being very strictly yes, you are right, as I wanted to advance a bit :)
What’s the purpose of this exercise?
I almost died. ...of hunger. Forgot to have breakfast today.
👏👏👏👏 nicee
Almost... lol
Nice
Great stuff Piotr 👌
Nice slip.
I did same for fun and practice to drop quickly height
Is there no direct way to request more power via radio? Nevertheless, of course, aborting the takeoff is not the worst solution.
You don't need radio, you just lower your nose. It works at our club.
Ah, the good old "Junior". Noisy but simply robust. As long you don't get in falling air a nice little bird :-) Greetings from Hamburg (HAC Boberg)
Beautiful.
Why is there no sound?
That happened to me in a Junior once. It just did not seem to have the speed to rotate properly. Good decision to land ahead! 😀
Nice one. The junior comes down like a brick.
