Glider Flying

Just a quick clip here from my Iphone yesterday flying the glider.  Click the link to check it our. Its kinda cool getting towed from another airplane and then pulling the handle to release. As you see here the handle gets pulled and the tow plane banks away to the left. 7 solo flights today. Not really any thermals or wind to speak of so these were just sled rides back to the airport from 9000′. It made for a 10-15 minute ride depending. Here it was around 10am so not much of either element but good practice flying an aircraft with no motor…
