A-I-R Time POTM 2014
12 years ago, Fred and I had our first soaring flights on the North side of the Point of the Mountain, UT (POTM). I've dreamed of flying the South Side's smooth morning air every since and yesterday, in spite of the morning rain and poor forecast, Fred and I got there at dawn and it was on!

VRS Flight in Tegelberg
Переглядів 11 тис.10 років тому
VRS Flight from Tegelberg in Germany. Ever since we bought our tickets to Germany, been dreaming that I'd get to try out the new ATOS VRS. In spite of late season timing, the weather gave us a light shot. The Alps and Castle were breathtaking but the VRS captured most of the 'awe'. With my 95 pound glider fresh on my mind, the 77 pound VRS felt like a toy walking to launch. EPIC! The handling w...

    What is that tool he uses to bring the leading edges together at the nose?

    I aged out of hang gliding before ATOS. Impressive, and the ramp launch brought back memories. I went on to sailplanes.

    I like. Perhaps next year I'll hook-in under one -for keeps. Yea, set it for next year.

    5:56 What is the black cable in front of tension rope on the nose of the glider? Looks like it is caught between the ropes at the upper right pulley 6:09

    • @skyjockbill
      @skyjockbill 3 місяці тому

      Not sure! I've just bought the VQ Race, which is a newer model with a carbon keel and the tailplanes trim automatically with the different flap settings. The black cable looks like a loop and looks similar to the handle for the speed brakes (which this glider doesn't have), but this can't be that handle.

    A LOT of set up.. I have an old Exx... and it’s a bit much on a windy day....side of a hill...etc....ie the real world.. A gentle breeze would be very difficult for this ATOS setup....

    • @QuienesSuPa
      @QuienesSuPa 3 роки тому

      Nah. It’s a similar setup time as a U2 once used to it. I set mine up on mountainsides typically.

      They often rig faster than I do my Seedwings Spyder and honestly haven't seen them struggling with wind. I fly in the Alps

    Very interesting craft, but I would only fly it once a year, the setup looks brutal.

    The serenity and splendor, through the sights and sounds of this video ,move me to a place of greater depth and contentment within. I long to "be there" ---- on the south side of POTM --- to be whisked away on the wings of the wind . . . to just ride it out in the majesty of God's Creation. Indeed . . . Glory, Glory, Hallelujah . . . . the sun is shining, shining down . . . Glory, Glory - Hallelujah I'm alive, and the world Lord, world is fine. I love it Lord . . . love it so very much. Thank You for such gracious delight in getting to know more of what it's like to soar on the wings of an eagle Lord, (and BJ!) ; to be strengthened in such freedom as Your Word speaks of. My heart and soul want more of it .
