Top Gun in the Mountains - Gliders Play Up There Too

Flying through the mountains happens much more than just in the movies. Glider pilots who are crazy/brave enough can play and fly amoung the mountain peaks like what you see in the big screen - just a little bit slower and not hitting 9+. G's. The glider is an ASW27 and the airport I am flying from is Nephi, Utah. This footage was taken just east of Manti, Utah. Thanks as always for watching and for all your comments and support! Bruno - B4

Great scenery! Thank you for these videos - inspired me to starting flying on the weekends with a local club to work toward my glider add on. Had been ages since I last flew powered (ASEL - 2006) but I'm 40 flights down and should be soloing here within a few weeks.

Hello Bruno, I've been watching you for years! I love these flights. I am still planning on doing an intro glider flight one of these days but I haven't been able to. I hope one day to be up there amongst the thermals with you!

Is this a new camera mount? I don't remember the camera being as independent from the axis of the glider. I really enjoyed watching this one. It's great to see you still up there having fun.

if you were to start to have a "dog fight" with another glider, replicating one of the topgun scenes. What kind of G force could the ASW27 pull?
@BrunoVassel
@BrunoVassel 2 года назад
I have a dogfighting video with another glider. It is pretty tame but still fun. The 27 can pull around 5 g’s. When I loop I pull 3.5 g’s.

Yeah ridge lift. The wind was from a bad angle so it wasn’t very strong but enough to keep the ship up.

@garrykennedy5484
@garrykennedy5484 2 года назад
I have missed your vids. Buddy, I see you've found some great restaurants. Be careful. I remember your vid about the weight and how well you were doing with it. I'm guilty also and am trying to get under 240 and then another 10 Lbs at least so that I can qualify to get in the trainer glider. You have to be under 240Lbs. to start training, and I've been struggling with this and that for the last 2 years to achieve that. Your vids have made me want to go from hang gliding to sailplanes to be biwingal as it were. I already fly the largest hang glider they make. LOL It's a constant battle isn't it? UGH!!!!!!!!! It's YOUR videos that make me want to learn sailplanes man!!!!!! I'm doing intermittent fasting. Waiting until later in the day to eat and having the last meal of the day earlier. It's working, but it's taking a long time. Especially since I had a pinched sciatic nerve, then a torn shoulder, then a stretched out thumb ligament that travelled up my entire arm. (happened while under tow with hang gliding.) All that in the last 2.5 years has had me grounded. UGH!!!!!!!!! I have faith in you bud. Keep up the vids. Love them as always. Living your best life!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Gary. Great to hear from you. Weight is a battle for some of us. The skinny people don’t understand. That said, we miss out on so much with these extra pounds. Sorry to hear about your thumb! Keep up the battle and hope you get to fly. Cheers.

Hey, just curious, but WHY would you choose a glider over a small plane? Are there any advantages to using a glider over a small plane? I mean isn't it more trouble to fly a glider where you are constantly being forced down and having to worry about making sure you get to your landing spot before you get too low? I think id much rather just fly a small single prop plane than a glider, at least when you have an engine you can go higher and fly for as long as you have fuel to do so.

Kinda like asking a cyclist why they don't just ride a motorcycle... ask a hiker why they don't just drive. Swimming for recreation? Crazy, we have boats for that now! Silly goose.
@chrislaws4785
@chrislaws4785 Год назад
@@swallowsjeremyy Well no, you see ALL the things you just named, riding bikes, hiking or what have you, NONE of those things FALL OUT OF THE SKY. LOL, just saying that when it comes to being thousands of feet in the air, I'd prefer the thing I was in staying in the air did NOT depend solely on the air itself. I mean a glider isn't even "flying", it's falling gracefully. I'm not nocking anyone for wanting to do it, I'm just curious as to if the FAA requires you to go through just about as much trouble getting a glider pilot license as they do a regular pilot license, then WHY anyone wouldn't just fly a regular small plane? If it was easier to get a glider pilot license or if you didn't need one at all, then I could understand. Because I guarantee you that if the DMV made people go through the same trouble to ride a bike or moped as they do a motorcycle, then there would be a LOT less people riding bikes.

Simple question - with complex answer? Watching your vids, I see constant stick movement for corrections. The question is: Why? What would happen if you only moved the stick when big corrections were necessary, rather than micro corrections? I suggest trying that next time - just to do something different and see what actually happens. You might deviate more than normal, but just how much???
