    So if I understood correctly, you landed first in the LS3 ahead of your brother in the ASG29. That’s what happens when one races against a competition pilot! 👍😊👍
    Thanks for taking us along for the ride!

    Hello Stefan, I have been looking at your videos and I've started to learn gliding in a ASK-21 in a local club in California. I've finished 25 flights. I hit my first thermals during the last 2 classes and I absolutely enjoyed them. Thanks for inspiring and introducing me to flying.

      This definitely was entertaining but I pilot a learjet for a charter and I cruise at 250 knots and 160 km is equal to 86knots so not as fast as a jet but still fast for a glider. But seriously this was entertaining even to a jet pilot

      It's not allowed at the top of the wing because the material gets warm and is not certified therefor

    Well Stefan, you upgraded the LS3 to LVL99 to beat mighty ASG :-) But I suspect a bit you may outglide it on a broom as well :D

    • @SteFly
      @SteFly  2 года назад +1

      It is a pure glider, so it does not have any propulsion. I only have an aerotow at the start and then I use thermals (natural lifts) to gain energy 🤙🏼

      I have a SPL and at the moment I´m not interested in a PPL. Gliding is for me pure flying, making turns all the time and feel the motion of the air in the purest form.

    Da ist einiges schief gelaufen in der Landwirtschaft, auch auf der EU-Ebene: siehe hier unter dem Link (Quelle: www.zeit.de/politik/ausland/2021-01/landwirtschaft-bauernhof-deutschland-strukturwandel-entwicklung#:~:text=Durchschnittlich%20beackert%20ein%20Betrieb%2063,auf%20rund%2038.100%20Betriebe%20an.)

    The noise that is the most irritating is not the wind noise but that incredibly annoying VSI with its multi toned "tunes" which would be enough for me to punch a hole in the instrument. You have a VISUAL indicator (needle). You don't need this constant "music". Just LOOK at the variometer - you don't need that ugly noise which to my mind utterly ruins the aesthetic pleasure of flying.
