What's up guys? It was time to try out gliding for the first time!
This is the first time for my sitting in the cockpit of a glider. First time flying a glider.
As a Boeing 737 pilot a lot felt familiar but still very different. That Duo Discus as treat to fly. I really enjoyed that experience but next weeks video blew me away so stay tuned for that.
Enjoy Episode 2 from our Glider flying experience. Sit back relax and enjoy.

I know a former navy pilot, he say's the only thing quicker than a winch launch is being thrown off a carrier with both engines in reheat and a steam catapult. Happy landings

@Pascalklr Год назад

I would love to try it out 😅

@PureGlide 2 года назад

That's great to land your first glider flight, a testament to both the pilot and the instructor!

@BigRigWA 9 месяцев назад

Personally I think glider flight is one of the best ways to become one with the aircraft. Wonderful to watch!

@Pascalklr 9 месяцев назад

So true 🙌

@slowtraveler Год назад

First winch launch is always incredibly exciting :) Thanks for sharing :)

Congratulations! You did very well. BTW there are several guys in my club that went into commercial flying after starting gliding at 14 years. I once asked one of them about the difference for himself. He told me: „Well, flying a Boeing is somehow if you are driving a bus. Gliding in comparison is pure fun, similar to driving a sports car.“ I guess it is a little bit different for everyone, I always could relax when gliding, playing with thermals, wind and clouds, leaving problems down on the ground. You should try an aerotow next time, maybe even some (light) aerobatics, if there is a glider available suited for aerobatics. One thing I can assure you: it is lots of fun, go for gliding! Cheers, Michael.

I think you gonna like Part 3 of the Series! Maybe some Aerobatics 😁 Thanks for the support :)

@berndkorthaus5082 2 года назад

Looks like commercial pilots are thankful glider trainees. And they do not stress the club's ressources much, as they do not need that much training. An ideal target group 🥰. Great video and idea, by the way!

I love the brutal acceleration at the start everytime.

I used to love going gliding when I was a teenager, when I was 13 I joined the air cadets in england and the first time I ever flew was in a glider at 13, I have been quite a few times with just flights a few times a year I suppose when there was space to fit us in, when I was 16 I was lucky enough to get myself on a week's course with a number of other people and I managed to go solo towards the end of the week which was an amazing feeling and I will never forget like everyone who takes their solo, not everyone made the cut but most did, I have a picture on my computer of a picture glider number that I went solo in as my wallpaper, it might be the same aeroplane but it's nice to think it could be.

@adcraziness1501 23 дня назад

That excitement is visceral. I can imagine how crazy that is. I have always wanted to go up in a glider. I had a chance to once, but was too dumb and young and wanted to go see a girl. Of course. Probably my first real regret in life!

@witblitsfilm Год назад

I notice you were doing the typical airline/powered pilot thing of twitching the controls constantly (more so on big jets with the little stabby control movements for a split second, then back to neutral). Not.a.criticism, just an observation! You will find with time, with a glider, that you can almost trim, set and leave and use a light fingertip only to fly it, without any constant control inputs. It really is a different way of flying and so enjoyable!

@steveanacorteswa3979 2 месяца назад

Brings back memories, first time I few a Grob after getting my license in a Schweizer 2-33, my fav was the Baby single place Grob, for 2 place, I liked the ASK21, I did get time in a Caproni A21S my friend had and it was amazing, side by side, felt like a Cessna Dragonfly. Wait till you soar with an Eagle, sharing a thermal, till they decide they were high enough and bug out.

@vickv1424 Год назад

Thanks for nice interesting video! Keep on gliding!! Take care about tail wheel, I prefer to touch ground by the main one first 😁 The best is to land on both at the same time.

@Pascalklr Год назад

I tried to do so! Haha Thanks a lot ✌️🙂

@LeWi100 Год назад

In my experience you should always aim for a tail wheel landing. If you do a very flat approach touching down with both at the same time is fine, but usually not landing on the tail wheel first means that you probably didn't flair enough and therefore landing quiet hard

@Zyeseoheek 2 года назад

@medler2110 28 дней назад

@@darcevader3769 I did my gliding solo at 16 in the UK with the Air Cadets, way back in 1982, I seem to recall we were allowed to go gliding and flying from 13 year and 9 months and would be allowed to have control of the aircraft.

@AeolusCapital Год назад

“Feels a lot different”, how compared to your B737NG experience?

@Pascalklr Год назад

Way different, in Airlines we don’t use our rudder during flight. In a glider you basically do it in every turn.

@ian020881 9 месяцев назад

I think all power pilots should have a few hours in a glider. It might help take the panic out of a dead stick situation. The terror you see in a power pilots face when the engine splutters to a halt is so funny for a glider pilot whose only thought is 'Situation normal. This is fun. What are you so stressed about? I've seen 5 potential landing sites within reach already, and no that's a crop, not grass. What we need is a reaallyyy good thermal. Ohh over there! That one!.'

@mariekeweichert973 2 года назад

It depends on the glider you are flying but in general something between about 90 and 120 kilometers per hour.

How often do u fly with gliders since then?

Unfortunately not since then. But i'm planning to do so this summer 💪✈️

@bamf6603 Год назад

@@Pascalklr So i see you just had one and first insturcted flight, are you gonna do the next flight all alone and on yourself?

@saltedskin 3 месяца назад

@@bamf6603he did very well but at least he has to take the glider specific safety lessons (spin, winch-cable-tear, slip, ...) before being allowed to fly alone under supervision. Takes about 10 to 20 flights with his level. To fly on himself without flight-instructor supervision resp. without flight-order a glider-pilot license is required.

@marksummerson3966 Год назад

I seemed to me that the tail struck the ground before the wheel. This is really bad isn't it? you could have broken the aircraft.

@tm3711 Год назад

Don’t worry, this model is supposed to touch down with the tail. An ideal landing would have been the tail and main wheel touching the ground at the same time, however Pascal’s landing was still ok and there was no danger at all. ;)

@marksummerson3966 Год назад

@T M That never occurred to me. It's a long time since I flew gliders, so I guess tech has moved on. The Olympia that I flew would probably have stalled before striking the tail on landing. I don't know for definite because it would have taken a heck of a nose up attitude to get the tail to strike first.

@tm3711 Год назад

@@marksummerson3966 a lot has changed since the Olympia Meise ;) (Interesting glider though, had the chance to fly it twice.)

@BruceHoult Год назад

Slightly tail-first is the standard way to land most gliders. Dropping a few cm down on to the main wheel decreases the angle of attack and lift and helps to ensure you can't bounce, especially on the rough ground we often land on.

@Huminahuminuh Месяц назад

Why don’t people learn how to fly a plane with gliders instead? Flight simulators are cool but beyond that, gliders are the safest way to get real word experience. I know they’re not the same as planes but the feel should be similar

@Paul_C Год назад

So in essence commercial pilots should learn to fly gliders first. And only then transition to moter. Seriously, they seem to have no understanding of the basics of flying.
