too late, too low
Переглядів 3,8 тис.6 місяців тому
First time crossing the Inn Valley east of Innsbruck near the Rofan. Just a little too late and a little too low. It didn`t look too good... Fortunatlly the LS 5 is climber an my ideas worked out. Most important: I can fly focussed when I have an escaperoute and outlandingoptions or even better an Airfield.... And when the "Anemoi" real time Wind indicator changes the game and help me unterstan...

Just a little flight in the area of the Durance Valley... Took a friend on his first flight in Waveconditions... The plan was to chill in the wave and have a good time, what it was... just a little bit further than expectet. Via Pic de Bure, Pas de la Cavale to the wave south east of St. Creppin. From there on we hit waves to Gr. Paradiso and back. Leider geil! Merci Norbert , Thanks for sharin...

This is my dream... someday. Thank you for sharing your adventures!💥 Liked and subscribed! ✅
@@surf_thermals thank you very much....
such great looking videos you produce.... and such a perfect song for it... keep it up
Can one download your IGC file of this flight ? What is the date of your flight ? Thank you for taking us along with you on such a magical flight !
www.weglide.org/flight/317061
Die LS5 ist so cool!
ja tatsächlich ein Wunder...
I really enjoyed your videos, it transmits the real excitement and adrenalin specially when making mistakes. I am just beginning to fly from Sisteron and I am looking forward to flying to Mt Blanc! keep your videos going, also the description along the flight is also very important.
hope to meet you in the sky!
Hasst du wieder mal gut gemacht. Ich vermiss das fliegen schon bisschen. Villeicht sehen wir uns ja mal wieder bei uns..☺️
Peter, einfach vorbei komme und wir drehen eine Runde
Servus Alpha3, darf ich fragen wo dein Heimatflugplatz ist und in welcher region du hauptsächlich fliegst? Lg von LOLG
Bin hauptsächlich von Augsburg aus unterwegs und soviel Serres wie möglich...
nice insight! thanks!
Bei uns 1000 ft - 1200 ft this weekend... mochte gern tauschen. 🙂
Du Adler! So klug about finding lift...
so lucky
And, the Bergdoktor is always close! BTW, not being a glider pilot, what is the control at your left hand?
Wölbklappe.... Ändert die Langsam- bzw. Schnellflugeigenschaften...
So es... I wondered if it was flaps or brake... I guess that "flaps" can have complex aerodynamics on modern gliders... Coupled, to slats, or anything like that... Vielen dank from the "Alb-traum" 😉
Well done, did your friend make it back also?
Hi Sven, he got a tow in Kufstein, he landed even ahead of me.....
A3, are your flights available on Weglide?
All of them... www.weglide.org/user/4705
@@Alpha-III Danke :)
great video
Sven merci...
Escape route! Great video - _knowing the wind is everything._ Had two unplanned outlandings in a field (in the Swiss alps) due to misjudging the wind.... Alpha Drei - hope to meet you in the skies one day too - Ronald Glider
Another great video. Thanks for sharing!
Love your videos. They are always so informative, well presented and of course the scenery is always so amazing.
well done! :) Anemoi seems to be a real game changer
So true
Beautiful! Thanks for sharing.
Hello from Colorado. As an old timer, it's wonderful to be able to see the world crystal clear, 'like a bird' on YT and follow on google earth, it just wasn't that long ago when all we had was Nat Geo Mag and/or fuzzy, shaky film/video. Beautiful flight, thanks for posting.
Since I was a little boy, I dreamed of flying like bird maybe.... Thats what that little Film is about. Glad, if it touches something...
Post another one without music, just vario
An excellent and inspiring video.Thank you for sharing this with the world .
Wunderbar!
merci
Very joyful to watch and a great season opener! Thanks!
Meet you in the sky
It's so joyful to see the flight.. And the Music.. Do you play music up there too? peaking from cockpit glass, Clouds, Horizon, high above all the chaos going down there. Man.. nice :)
Thank you man... no, no music up there, but in my head....
👍👍👍
Very interesting, THANKS 🙂🙂🙂.
Very good video, many thanks😎.
Thank you....
Very good video. Thanks also for the description of the decision process. Very interesting 😎😎😎.
Wow- da warst du sicher durchgeschwitzt. Nach der halben Stunde Bodenturnen. Aber super spannend zum ansehen und by the way: Was für ein toller Flieger!
A3, I just discovered your channel recently and it is just fantastic. I have been a flatland pilot for 45 years (Denmark) and learn so much from your films. It will very helpful for my flights out of St. Auban. Thank you so much, keep them coming please.
merci for your feedback, safe flights and good adventures in the south...
Die Überfluggeschwindigkeit über den Pass ist aber wirklich gering (etwas über 100 km/h bei ca 10:30), da ist nix mit (Energie-)Reserven, die du zu Beginn als einen der wichtigen Punkte aufzählst
merci fürs Feedback, tatsächlich sollte man das schneller machen obgleich die LS 5 deutlich langsamer geflogen werden kann als neuere Flieger....
Thank you very much for sharing a great video. I've instructed a season in that area and to me you made the wrong choice. It would have been safer to turn around and go back the way you came around to the sunny side, specially if you've never crossed that pass before. Be safe and maybe we will meet in the alps in the summer.
you are so right, I should have turnen early....
Very important video. Difficult conditions make a much more instructional video. It is on difficult days that one learns more. Congratulations on comleting your fkight
Nice commentary. I know that some great effort is required to record, edit such long videos, well done. You mentioned about Pureglide "Instructor Reacts nonsense" as a big channel. However that channel copies and broadcasts other people's accident videos and he opens those videos for critics and then millions of people making comment on them because they are allowed to 😟 That's quite disconcerting in my view. I wouldn't appreciate if he lifted my personal recording and criticise my flying without knowing what actually happened there. Your recordings are genuine and your own comments are priceless for fellow glider pilots. Keep soaring and talking to us.
Thank you very much for your feedback.... that really inspires me!
Really interesting. One of the best soaring channels.
Alastair, what a feedback... thank you!
Always enjoyable to watch and thanks for the lessons!!!!
Thanks for the comment, it's great that I can learn from your experiences 👍
Great video , thank you . Well flown , well mounted and great comments . Had a great time watching .
Thank you for your feedback!
I came into episode 4 , but now I feel inspired to view the others. This is an exceptionally well produced video. I felt like I was right with you when you started getting low. ( I was scanning the fields ). Thank you for making the effort to produce these videos.
Thank youf for your feedback, keeps me motivated!
I've overflown the arrea between parc de Ecrins and Pic de Bure many times but you just showed me a completely different perspective. I just recommended this video to my friends because there's so much to learn. Thank you for your effort.
Thank you for your feedback!
great video! thanks! I guess from these tricky flights you learn the most. Was the wind indicator (hawk) helpful for your decision making in this complex terrain?
anemoi or hawk, I won t go without.... thank you for your feedback
Thanks
Soo tief in dieser Gegend... Aber heimgekommen! Chapeau!
Merci für Dein Feedback... war mir meist zu tief...
Thanks for sharing and for your valuable comments...I guess when can all benefit from such footage !
Thank you...
great!
I really enjoyed the video. Thanks for sharing!!
Im still waitin' for Episode4 and for some LS5 content 😘
Thank you for asking.... Episode 4, maybe tonight.... If I get things done... And LS 5... still the 3.000h Major Inspection on the way... Its getting time.... Hopefully next season, the LS 5 is ready to take of again...
Ein Wahnsinns-Ritt, dazu gehört wohl sehr viel Routine in den Seealpen und ein gutes sensitives Segelflugzeug. Sehr respekteinfößend👏👏👏
LS ist geil😊❤
