I just got my GPL. I'm considering signing up for an aerobatics course before getting into cross country. Not for the fun flying per se, but rather to really get to know the how much more I 'push' the glider.... is this a good idea?

Awesome video! This was a good aerobatic flight! Congratulation to the student pilot 😉

One of my first instructors were an Eurofighter pilot (JG 71 Richthofen). On our second flight he showed me his interpretation of "having fun" in the air and pulled almost 4 G. No, not my cup of tea... :-)

Beautiful video. I havent flown a glider for more than 15 years. Maybe it's time to start again.

I owned that lovely aeroplane for 16 years. Got my PPL in it and did lots of upgrades

so cool

no aileron roll?

A true internet gem.

Nice flying.. I am a piston pilot, so dislike the slow roll and quick acceleration with gliders in the vertical IS the proper way to learn to fly - the stick controls speed; engine controls rate of descent. I built/flew aerobat C-IAVW, 6,000+ rivets. CAVU skies!

Cockpits need a hoover Webby!

Duo Discus ist schön❤❤❤😊

Beautiful!

Lowest aerobatic maneuver - 350 feet. Is it legal in UK?

Not really attempting to centre the thermal!! Ease off the bank a bit when the lift reduces, tighten up the bank angle when it increases...Chris Rollings method..usually works!!

🤮

I always liked the Libelle, even more than its Glasflügel stablemates, the Hornet and Mosquito.

This place is so cool..

Must curb my swearing!

I love it when you pick up that lift after a launch - it’s a shame it went.

This Libelle was at the Marchington club for years.

Reckless.

Yes!

Very poor airmanship! No look out turns prior to commencing the sequence straight off the tow! That flight is all about the pilot and not the trainee/student! 🤢

Nice work chasing that thermal. 2,800ft and sitting comfortably. :)

Great video, interesting to follow these maneuvers from cockpit view in the fox. Scary low altitude work though...

Release to ground roll in 4 minutes 20 seconds, that's one hell of a sink rate from 4000' agl!!!! Awesome flying, especially the inverted down wind leg!

You dont pull the airbrake during the final curve, thats a dangerous game to play with a plane that has its attitudes

Do you fly this Libelle now in 2020? What can you say about this glider - its pluses and minuses? Thank you!

Have been feeding starlings, finches, blue tits, pidgins etc etc for months, amazing to see them go from brown to these white spots on black plumage. Had to stop feeding them feed balls as they were getting very aggressive with one another so I feed them seeds etc . Thing is there are not many around these days (September) maybe a couple as every day there was at least 40 at feeders. Do Starlings go to other places in September?? Nice video 😷👍

it rolls like a fighter, damn sailplanes have won, i will start flying soon.....

Where do you place your GoPro?

What a great vid thanks for sharing 👍🏻👍🏻

Nice video, you were in Aden city when you were 9 years old , right . Could you give us more information! Or videos and pictures of Aden at that time , and thank you

ULM Version ?

Nice calm flying, gving the plane some time to respond. Enjoyed it Mr. Webb!

Very relaxing

I flied 3 times with this plane in MAMMARI...i really miss IT!!! KEEP GOING GUYS!!

scary

have to turn steeper for that thermal!

Thanks! Remembered early 80's! Old times, good times!!

RAF Cranwell, England. Very big field

What airfield is this?

too true Markus

Tug flown by Josh Wood

Sorry Josh. Didn't see you there as well. Can't change the titles now though, will add you to the blurb.

I'm *

I'm on there too Ian

Brilliant! Just caught sight of the motor-falke in the hangar flight video. Have spent ages on google earth looking for the new gliding site. Great to see Cu in the sky too. Good luck. Regards to Avo. Dick Parker. Alberta, Canada
