There's an old wise saying about flying in rain: "big drops are good, small drops are bad". Explanation: If you are flying in lift, the rain drops will be big. They have to be a certain size to counter the lift and fall. Fine mist is bad, as it'll come down in descending air. Note how the lift areas you flew in have big drops.
I both experienced lift and sink in all kinds of precipitation. Big raindrops fall trough the lift, small drops can be carried / floated by it. Snowing / ice crystals can be also present in both sink / lift. Essentially in most of the cases its better to stay close, but away from the rain (few drops on canopy) following the line of the convergence created by the cold air undercutting the warmer air bellow you. ( That is of course only true if we talk thermal / convergence, and not think of ridge / wave) and that where the rainbow is with the pot of gold!:D facebook.com/milancse/photos/a.1888014207983585/1888014184650254/?type=3&theater

Nice. I fly RC model glider sometimes, and the best lift I ever experienced was right before a hail storm!!! The lift was incredible once this huge dark grey cloud was just a mile away. I had to almost dive my glider back down from almost the highest I've even been! I was on high ground and could see the weather approaching all the way from the horizon. So I could gauge when I should bring her down to land and run back to the car. I was loading the model into the back of my car as the first hail started bouncing off the tailgate! After 10 mins the sky cleared and I tried again, but the lift was about as interesting as last week's left over pizza.
Very awesome to watch all this, Especially the different climbing zones within the cloud deck and in the rain. I was surprised to see how late your FLARM unit you have on board indicated a shoulder to shoulder converging pass? Looks like it would have been too late if it would been a nose to nose collision course. Would love to hear your comment on that thank you. I wish FLARM was as prevalent here in the USA is it is over an Euro Land.
Weather was something. The FLARM was quite slow to react in particular situatoion, could be due to a bad antenna mounting location in one or the other glider.
I find it amazing that the cockpit would be so quiet with no engine and then they fill that void with boop boop beep beep. Really need to just have a sliding bar somewhere in the cockpit for visual reference

The only negative comments I'm seeing are (rightfully) criticizing him for flying too close to the clouds and in IMC, especially with local traffic. Gliders are supposed to maintain VFR and distance about 1000 feet from cloud bases. What he did can be considered dangerous since flying into the clouds can cause you to collide with traffic and lose your situational awareness. For pilots flying VFR who end up in IMC, there is a massive fatality rate over 75%.
@@AmyAnnLand A lot of countries allow gliders to fly up to cloud base if they still have the ground in sight. The fatality rate for glider pilots accidentally flying in to IMC is pretty close to zero. When a PPL(A) finds himself IMC it´s probably because he/she flew 100kts straight forward into a larger cloudlayer (something like 7-8/8). When we glider pilots do it it´s usually thermalling (airspeed about 50 kts) and only partially during turning. Most likely not into a larger cloud layer as they very seldom have any lift under them...
You sure can, this is useful to get into wave (smooth laminar air) that's going up over the clouds. Or you can build up speed and pull up over above the cloud base for fun.
It indicates climb rate/descent rate. The higher the pitch of the beeping, the higher the rate of climb. Low constant sound indicates descent with the same being true for it's pitch.

it is not very clever to share a video that shows an illegal flight. you are harming the whole gliding community because this video could be seen by the aviation authorities. there have been several near-collisions between gliders and airliners in airspace E in the past. we pilots know that a motorless aircraft has a right of pre-flight in the vfr flight within E. pedestrians do not know this. so they assume that the gliders endangered the airliner. and videos like this confirm their opinion. so thank you very much for your. contribution to the acceptance of our sport in the public!
I understand where you are coming from, and follow you in some of the things you state. But notice this is an class G airspace with different VMC minima than class E.
@@Dalboe Still, you're clearly not clear of clouds on this video.
You really are pushing a lot of blame here
Cloud suck, better get out before you set new height record...
What do you mean?
