"Flaps... Oh there are no flaps in this plane" Died from laugh 😂
no there is
be careful, all comments below are from pilots :D
Have you ever NOT made it back to the runway. Isn't that a risk! Great video as always.
Should you feel insulted since google thought this is portugese?
That audio variometer would drive me crazy. I see you went a bit too far downwind! Although you don't get a lot of height on a winch launch I love the climb.
How was it launched?
My tips as a trainee glider instructor, would to really slow down your checks. If you rush them, you could really mess up big time.
I show this to birds while I hold them in front of a fan
Lololol🤣
lol
What was your speed on approach!! And is this crusaders gliding club?
@TheGreatFlyer did use head or chess mount for your GoPro as I want to start a UA-cam Chanel
+TheGreatFlyer
He used head mount you can tell because of the way its moving around
Cool video! liked and Subscribed !!
Does your club not own other planes then the k 13 ?
The club own 1 k13,1 k7m and a sf25b falke :)
what was the pink thing that pulled it along at the start.
yeah... what was that. i'm scared
so true
Parachute attached to the cable attached to the winch.
does your ears hurt when you land
No just a bit rough but not scary or ear piercing
Awesome!
Wtf how to say help up there in cockpit where isnt a comunicator and nobody hear you?
A VHF handheld radio was fitted.
so good ....
Lol thought there was a tow plane
What if the camera hits the canopy and damages it?
-CAA
It cannot, because the camera mount is made of soft rubber. If one was to doubt the integrity of a canopy against rubber they would most likely refuse to fly in that aircraft!
Amazing video and good flight! Did you have the go pro head strap to film this?
really like that one at the end that actually had that engine on the front of it, I know that probably does add some extra weight to the glider and as so, does that make it a bit harder to keep it up in the air, the only other one I saw like that actually had a engine that actually raised and lowered from the top of the glider which was actually pretty cool.....
That was much noisier than my first ever flight in a Sedbergh with no canopy!
I would really love to learn to flight a glider

Where was the plane pulling him
No plane, winch launch.....
Great clip, brought back memories from my starts when I was 15y (and up). Nice start and landing!
Thanks for watching!
I think that was pretty nice.
Thanks a lot! Please check out my other gliding videos too ✈️
❤️✌🏼
Thanks for watching, check out my other gliding videos!
Omg why did that police car have a siren on
Usually pretty much all gliders have that string attached to the nose of them, correct, guessing that is used to tell which way the wind is blowing, right, also found out that the Longest glider Flight, which lasted for 1,023 miles, stood as a world record for at least 20 years, and is still a United States National Record.
this string shows bank
I know that this is going to sound corny, but what was pulling the winch to launch the glider at the beginning??????? Also, do alot of gliders nowdays have those small strings on the front of the cockpit window????? was that also a glider at the end of the video, if so, I have never seen one before with the engine on the FRONT of it like that before, I know that they make gliders that have what I guess they call pop-up engines that raise up from behind the cockpit of the glider and the pilot uses that to get it up into the air and to the altitude that he wants, then when he reaches the correct altitude he actually lowers the engine into the body of the glider and now the glider is a true glider again except for the extra weight of the engine in the glider's body which always made think of how it could actually stay up into the air with that extra weight it has in its body?????
+Andrew Silva Actually the winch is at the very end of the runway and then is accelerated for about 15 seconds and then decelerates very slowly then is released +TheGreatFlyer Good video as always.
How can this plane fly ?
Like an amusement park ride......but 10X better......I mean 10000000000000000000000X. ;) Just curious....is it possible that the winch cable fails to detach?
+turbofanlover It is but it's very rare. The Winch itself has a guillotine to ensure that the glider won't get pulled into the winch in the event of a hang up.
lashamgliders Aha! Thanks much for the info. :)
Oddly satisfying
I want one were can I get one.
I get the feeling that you are in a hurry?
*****
When your doing your cockpit check and such. Its like you have to get on the ground again quickly. BUT don't get me wrong! This is not i any way meant to be a negative comment, i just noticed it :)
+TheGreatFlyer Maybe because i dont do it that fast sorry haha
+TheGreatFlyer Haha well you have involved a lot, Btw keep up the fantastic videos :)
it's so flat!!!
Well managed.
I flew this yesterday it was amazing
Awesome, thanks for watching!
I'm soon coming to Cyprus! :)
You too.
How is it flying 😥😥
That thing is light as hell
On the Top Light? It's a plane, and there's a human in it, doesn't look very light to me, the winds must be very strong? Or is there a propulsion system on this plane?
Michael Rosche Its light weight + its long wings structure creates a easy lift to keep it flying....
Michael Rosche No there is no propulsion in Gliders.....Hence they are called Gliders
Michael Rosche There is also something called glide ratio like 50:1 (Travels 50 miles if at 1 mile altitude)....You can google or watch some videos here on UA-cam to learn how they works....
