    What a beautiful place to fly! Count yourself fortunate you even get to fly. We are on the ground looking up at the sky because there is no tow plane.

      Oh yes - I _do know_ how privileged I am being able to do this (for this flight it took me an hour to organize a tow plane from another airfield, because ours was not available),

    Netter sightseeing Flug. Danke fürs mitnehmen. Aber die Thermik könntest du schon etwas agressiver packen 😝👍

    Why is there a yaw string on the side of the canopy?

      You may see the angle of attack to get the right flap adjustment.

      When the our club acquired the Arcus in February this year, it came like this. @gottfriedheumesser1994 is correct!

    Ich fliege schon über 20 Jahre Gleitschirm.

    Tolles Video, macht mich an ins Cockpit zu wechseln. 😂
    Ich liebe die Thermikfliegerei, aber das Klima (Frühling, Sommer) wird schon bedenklich. Die Segelfliegerei würde mich interessieren.
    Fly high and save 🤙
    P.S.
    Meine Videos werden von @kassandra Kanal verwaltet. Ich habe noch tonnenweise Rohmaterial, für gute GS Videos.

    Hello there, great video! I just discovered you and subbed, may i ask if you could be interested in a collaboration Glider/FPV drone?. I am a licensed and insured Swiss fpv pilot and i think we could get some benefit from each others point of view.😁

      That would be cool - however: within 5km of Mollis / LSZM drone operation is prohibited... Send me an email....
