You should definitely change the video title, so everyone knows that these people are complete beginners 😅 As a viewer I didn't expect seeing rookies making their very first flight experience. My first reaction without this background info was like: "Wow damn, those take-offs are already hard to watch, I don't want to have such pilots around me when I'm airborne"
So, small explaination. We where with a training school. There where always two instructor at launch. One talking through radio and checking wing etc. Other instructor also check wing from different angle. These where our first and second flights. In may we will go to lijak Slovenia and you will see improvements then!
@@sprokkel30Nobody except the first is looking up after inflating the wing. Just last week I had to help a pilot down from a ski lift because he had cravattes on each side but proceeded the start nevertheless. He stayed unharmed but he needs a new set of lines.
thank you for your comment, you are right that we didn’t look at the wing for cravats. We where with a group of very inexperienced people. But we where with a school. We always had 2 instructors at launch site to check our wings. If we would have been aborted. Cheers
Wing checking on forward launch is a little controversial. Some say you should look up, others say it can cause instability in the wing when slowing and easing tension in lines when trying to look up. Personally, I never look and always go on feel and have never had a problem. However, I will always do a reverse launch whenever possible, then you are 100% sure.
Ein Start katastrophaler als der Andere..... aber gut das ist man von Bassano gewohnt.... sehe dort jede Woche die Pfeifen die mehr Glück als Verstand haben.... 99% von denen gehört umgehend die Lizenz entzogen..... danke fürs Teilen... wäre ein tolles Schukungsvideo wie man es nciht macht...
@@sprokkel30 be able ti Start and Land safely has nothing to do with XC 😅😅😅😅…… please make Training….. you can make a good Training with the Bassano Instructor also…. Mr Andreas Breuer if needed….. be Safe guys
@@sprokkel30 yes of Course….. if you look the Starts you See that quiet everyone forces the wing and starts without control of the wing….. as those are all new wings already a Speed of 2,5mph is enough to keep the wing up and this gives you also a lot of time to control and stabilize if needed…… most of the pilots doesn‘t even take a look if the wing is perfectly open without any cravats…… to summarize too much effort and stress…… should do it much calmer and so also safer…….. the landings are quit all made with already pulled brakes ….. thats not good and also dangerous….. all New wings have a high Flare factor…. This gives you the posdibility to fly full speed which is much safer for Rotors and Wind shares….. then only use the brake when you are 1 Meter above ground to flare and brake……. It seems but this is only my Impression that all this pilots have only tiny experience in Mountain Flying….. maybe you come from a country without Mountains? This is only my Impression…… I live in the Alps im the middle of the Dolomiten Mountains and each starting mistake means death ( unfortunately also today a pilot died:-(…) several this month……. I Hope my first comment wasn‘t too unfriendly but I‘ve already seen so Mans people be killed and injured that it makes me angry if I see how dangerous some people try to fly :-)
@@paulino3320 Thank you for the feedback. So we all did a beginners cours, al these flights where first flights ever done so no one had any experience. The only thing we did was 1 or 2 days ground handling in 0 wind. After this course I bought my own set and I do understand what you mean. We had instructors laying out the wing and looking for Crevits or other dangers. Instructor would abort us if things where not ok. Anyway I appreciate your comment and maybe it seems rude at the start, you only have good intentions :) and I am happy to learn. We are all from the Netherlands, 0 mountains… ;)
