- SG-38 vintage glider from 1942. The glider is launched by winch @ the airfield Spitzerberg in lower Austria. We do still fly this glider on a regular basis. Its great fun to feel the wind in your face sitting on a chair in the air 200m above ground.
Fantastic video - thank you for uploading.
In 1965 I´ve had the chance to fly the SG-38 by myself in Aspern/Vienna. I´ll never forget. Something very special. The glide angle is, comparing with todays gliders, a real disaster, but it was, and still is, a fantastic airplane.
Fuselage appears to be half a tree trunk?...no wonder the sink - rate rivals a concrete block... :-O (love it...it's REAL flying!)
Those Magnificent Men in there Flying Machines, comes to mind.
Thanks for sharing! Simple inexpensive gliding like this should be more available to more pilot to get the sensation of REAL flying!
Danke für die schöne Irische Musik Begleitung, zusätzlich :-))
Vintage plane, cool take off, cute dog, VW van... What more can you ask from a youtube video ? Well done guys
Thank you for watching our videos, blue skies!
Beautiful dog, nice glider ... congratulations from Brazil. =)
Hi Sanderson,
we have an altimeter and an airspeed indicator installed in an old black painted lunch box. You can see it at sec 28 in the movie. You can also judge the speed by the sound of the wires. When you hear nothing, you're too slow.
Cheerio!
chegar cansado do trabalho e ver um video desses,relaxa até a alma
Nice flying, brilliant music
D trip below said it all...!!!! Great vid..!! Thanks, Gordon in Maui
I flew the RAF version, the Grasshopper when it was issued to the Combined Cadet Force. It had stops to limit the elevator(at the base of the stick) to stop one getting too high a nose attitude and stalling the plane.Trouble is, it limited your back stick when trying to cushion the landing! Many Grasshoppers ended up breaking their 'A' frame when landing due to high ROD which pilot had been unable to reduce. Flew it at school playing fields, launched by the long bungee was character building!
Wow!
I get butterflies just watching the takeoff!
Excellent video!
Excellent video. Well done.
Gracias por contestarme y mis dudas amigo. Saludo desde Andalucia.España
Nice classic sail plane :-)
Oh man I love that little German Pointer
Great video, I enjoyed watching it. It must be a special feeling when you fly that glider. It reminds me on romantic beginnings of aeronautics :) Do you fly it in thermal conditions? I would be scared to death on it when thermals starts to rip.
love this plane flown a lot of rc stuff and done a bit of gliding never went solo though but i think i could handle that
Thank you for watching!
Blue skies!
love that dog :-)
and it looks like badd ass fun ...
Lol that dog is cute!
Amazing...
Blue Skies!
Gracias por todo. Hapy New Year
12 dislikes???...good god there are some sad people out there...great clip guys!!
Can't fly longer ?
People aren't allowed to have opinions?
They probably wanted to see blood..
It's a glider, not a sail plane!
Great video!
Awesome! Looks a lot like some ultralights but way cool!
Amazing. What is the name of this song and band performing it?
Tam lin The Glasgow réel.
I have seen the plane launched with people running and towed by another plane... how is it done in this video? are there plans available to buy? what breed is the dog? Please, if you can answer to at least one question...
Hermoso el perrito
Hi Antonio, we have done it by winch launch. I don't know if there are plans to buy, this Schulgleiter ist from 1939. The dog is a mix, no specific breed. Blue Skies!
WOW.👍👍👍
Thanks 😁
Auch liebevoll "Schädelspalter" genannt
Grande o piccolo che sia, “vola” ed anche molto bene! Ha messo le ali a tanti piloti tedeschi dopo la prima grande guerra.....con le proebizioni che erano state imposte ai perdenti!!
Beautiful glider. So efficiently and wonderfully designed. I'm surprised that the pilot actually sits in front of the main wings. I guess the weight balance allows for it.
ACE!
how fuckin cute is that dog !!
First pilot looks like Herman Goering.
Eine schöne Dokumentation:
Ich habe den Schulgleiter 1942 , in der Flieger - HJ , zur Erlangung
der A-Prüfung 30 mal geflogen.
Die SG 38 hatte damals keinen Geschwindigkeits - und keinen Höhenmesser.
Hallo! ich würde mich sehr über einen kleinen Mailaustausch freuen. Mein Vater (Jg. '21) muss, wenn ich seine Erzählungen richtig verstanden habe, 1935 oder '36, also mit 14 oder 15 seinen ersten Alleinflug auf einer Grunau 9 an der Wasserkuppe gemacht haben. Ich habe Geschichten in Erinnerung wie die, dass der Gleiter selbst zusammengebaut werden musste (und vor dem Flug das Gerät einmal dauerrülpsend umrundet werden musste) ehe es losgehen konnte. Als er mir davon erzählt hat, war ich noch sehr jung, jetzt lebt er nicht mehr, aber mich würden die Details interessieren, auch, wie die Fliegerei organisiert war…
(Diese Bitte um Kontaktaufnahme gilt natürlich für alle, die hier lesen und Ahnung vom Thema oder eigene Erlebnisse haben.)
Vielen Dank!

This video for me was a nostalgia trip. I spent a weeks vacation at a Bristol (England) Gliding club about 1952 and made my first flights in what was a British build copy of this glider. The smell of fresh cut grass always brings back memories. A few years later i finally figure out how to thermal in A Grunua. I don't know if that one was German made or a British copy. The Gliding world owed a lot to those prewar Germans
this might be a dumb question but how do you judge your airspeed so that you don't stall?
she is called Mona and the dog of the winchdriver
nice glider
einfach supper!
hi guys...fantastic.....I want to fly it too! What are the requirements?
as someone said below, sehr cooles
Where are plans available for the SG-38?
I guess thermalling is not really an option with this?
Soo, Whats the tube up front for....To scare the Deer away ???!!!!!
Its a pitot tube for the altimeter and speedometer
@@Wolkenstecher ..Ooohh, okay..Looks like that thing you put on your car bumper to keep deer from running in front of your car.....
@MrVictorHugo @thewhitemask
I think the song is Tam Lin - Peter Miln
Are plans available?
Я бы наверно не полетел))) Видео смотреть страшно))))
Ich will auch so einen! gibts da irgendwelche baupläne??
excelente muy bueno
¿Tu has echo los planos?Me gustaría construirme uno aquí en Andalucia. ¿Pasas los planos?
DANKE. Me gusta tu planeador amigo.
75 years ago I learned to fly in this glider.
Maravilhoso
Bravo ! il faut oser prendre l'air avec un tel engin...
Do you know maybe what is the sink rate? Thanks
aggressive final turn, no?
The wing is covered with ceconite
Idea... Immelman?
No tenemos planes para SG-38, nuestro Secretario General sigue siendo un original.
Los planes pero tendría que renunciar a Schulgleiter.de.
Wie das Lied heißt wissen wir leider nicht,
Der SG ist im Privatbesitz, um damit zu fliegen bedarf es einiger Anstrengungen wie beispielsweise durchschwimmen der Donau bei diversen Stromschnellen einmal im Frühling und einmal im Sommer, ein Fallschrimsprung mit der Rundkappe aus 100 Metern usw. Danach wird dann im Gremium entschieden. Eine Segelfluglizenz allein reicht leider nicht.
darcilo sou forte e decidido resovo tudo en tenpo necesario gosto de aventuras e tipo de esportes radicais como voar de paraqueda paraguider ultraleve e algo mais
Hi WrogerWroger,
you can get the plans @ schulgleiter.de
Cheerio
Anyone know what the music is?
From the description of the video:
Song: Tam Lin/ Fairy Dance
Artist: Peter Miln & Daniel James
Album: Celtic Dance
BTW - really nice piece.
Ja, das ist sehr cooles ^_^
Was ist the name of the song?
O.K.
ชอบมากอยากบินเป็นมั่ง
isn't it dangerous?
+Mehmet Baki sure it is, if you can't fly
The Flying Gasmask is there anyone who died doing this?
Mehmet Baki probably yea, people die when driving like idiots, but you still use cars right?
Do you know the total weight, stall speed, and VNE of your SG 38? My dad has a cabinet shop, I want to build a semi historically accurate Schulgleiter with accurate WW2 markings with two small pulse jet engines on it (off to the side on extensions). Enough power to get it airborne on its own and keep it flying. That would turn heads.
I'd tell people I found it in my granddaddy's barn and dusted it off ;-) Everybody in the local flying club has $50,000 fully acro sport planes... but such a crazy little plane would put me firmly in the bad ass WTF she's got bigger balls than me category. Esp. when it spouts fire on startup and kicks in with that brrrrrapppp noise.

what a nice little dog
Thanks for watching. We try to fly in thermal conditions, as the glide ratio is about 1:9 and the glider produces much drag, its quite hard to stay up in the sky.
But its plenty much of fun!
Blue skies
Leider sind bei einem Schulungsgleiter die Flugzeiten viel zu kurz, aber dafür ist er halt nicht gebaut
no ... at least she doesn´t watch on youtube ....
Woooooow.im from algeria now i really know im not in life.you are lucky friends.well done.plz can i try it?
Plzzzzzzzzz i m not human
It sinks like a stone, best sink rate is approx 2m/s at 50 km/h, and it is raw flying at its best!
Very good this video, watch always, thanks for this, congratulations also the dog heeeeeeeee
Very nice gliding.. I love that wood look.
