The turns from Base to Final needs to be more square, and less rounded....
I learned to fly the Schweizer 2-33. when I was 16, it was a fantastic experience, and launch a flying career.

Congrats to everyone who earned a new rating today!

Very well done, nice and smooth. A joy to watch for an old glider pilot who learned on 1950s/60s gliders in the early 1980s in Germany. Assume slip landings are getting out of fashion with modern slim fuselage planes.

They did great. That slip landing was for a commercial rating and were part of a no-altimeter, no airbrake landing. Thos old gliders you flew are a real joy, our club has schweizer gliders from the 60s 70s and they are a blast to fly ;)
