AirWhere intro - Phil Colbert
มุมมอง 1.2K7 ปีที่แล้ว
Phil Colbert visited DSC and gave us an introduction to AirWhere. AirWhere has been designed to offer a lightweight, flexible and cheap approach to pilot awareness. It uses small inexpensive components, coupled with WiFi to be used whilst paragliding where size and weight are at a priority. Currently LK8000 and XCsoar are used to connect to the unit, more flight software compatibility coming so...

Preparing for Paragliding Adventures - Ruth Churchill Dower
hi, is there any simple apps to see where i can fly?
Merci monsieur!
Thank you so much for deliver nice detailed lecture for new pilots, can't believe that after 7 years those videos get sent from many clubs to study for the new pilot exam.
I finally understood Katabatic flow (and other stuff too) thanks!
Really decent guy doing this course, really good talking and easy listening to someone like me who that hates this type of thing 🙏🙌🙌👍
Thank you for great explanations. I'm preparing for the exam in Portgual and this is the best source of the information I got!
Would you consider sharing the PowerPoint? I'd love to listen again following along with the PP.
Revisit time and time again
Thanks for this! Heading into my Meteorology exam tomorrow and these two videos were great for a late cramming session. Let's see if I can pass now :)
Fantastic thanks
Brilliant! This is so much help for new pilots! Thanks! Please do more like these... other sites and Bradwell again, even if we get another opinion/feel for the flying away AND safety.
Could you explain the best glide method about polar curve in climb/headwind? a little bit of both brake?
this guy couldn`t explain how to punch your way out of a wet paper bag!
It definitely wasn't the clearest theory lecture I've seen
Content - 😎 Expression - 😬
wow so much to learn... very good lecture. thank you for sharing
U made it so easy,have had hard time not until I listened to your lecture,thank you
Thank you very much sir,the best explanation on Thermal growth

Great lesson! Watching it for second time! Please make another version with better sound and recording.
easy to understand, thanks
I have just set up a Heltec base station and Heltec and TTGO Beam air units in South Africa, monster simple just follow the instructions and you are away, very impressed. airwhere.co.uk/
Horrible mic position. If I hear this guy swallow his saliva one more time I'm turning it off. Oh there it is well um ahh ummm I'm going to go read Understanding the air. Sooo ummm ahhhhh ummm good day.
Shut up and appreciate someone sharing their highly condensed knowledge with you for free.
A useful video prior to taking PPL exam. Class F airspace was removed in 2014 and reallocated as either E or G as appropriate. Also, there is currently no Class B in the UK.
thank you. Great info. I had to watch it many times to understand these awesome info
Hi Nev, really interesting presentation of this great tool, thank you for sharing!! btw, do you have any preferred setup (config and infoboxes) for XC and Competition Hang Glider pilots to share?
Hi, can Mr. Mike send me the slices ?
Nice presentation
Can anyone tell me why I need to join a bhpa paragliding club to fly in yorkshire ? Do they own the airspace or something .
dos this gordon bishop know what he is on about all you get from him is mmmm
lol
what a lot of shite he is taking just to get money of yous see he is hiding his face well he is a puppet being told what to say what a fkn joke
bhpa are mafia. they are unaccredited and qualifications hold as much sway as reiki
please be aware that bhpa qualifications dont mean shit. they are not an official body and have no more international recognition than a reiki practitioner
Other organisations copied and adapted the BHPA syllabus and as thanks look for ways to slate the organisation. Insecure!
www.bhpa.co.uk/documents/safety/formal_investigations
RIP dean eldridge died paramotor lethal accident. no proper investigation. no independent wing check. no independent paramotor check. no one knows the cause of the accident. british pilot.instructor. wing testing for ozone. read the bhpa report. dean eldridge is named as pilot a/ pilot b/ is emelia plak. pilot c/ ? who is he? oh sorry, hes pilot c/. as mentioned a certified wing dgac. any head injuries? not mentioned. any video taken? not mentioned while testing a ozone prototype wing? did ozone settle out of court?? would explain alot. quote marc asquith "we make lots of changes to the BHPA Rules without consulting but this time it was thought to be worthwhile." my reply.. they make the rules up as needed!! without consulting..... very thoughtful..www.bhpa.co.uk/documents/safety/formal_investigations
and the first report i read did not mention at all that pilot b/Emilia plak. while waiting for the ambulance to arrive talking to dean Eldridge and as quoted Pilot A/ was reported as "being alert, communicative and breathing regularly, but could not recall what led up to the impact". the report i read did not mention at all that dean has mentioned that he could "not recall what led to the impact" i put it the bhpa that the facts you present are not the facts.the here say facts have been amended.because i kicked up a fuss about this online via internet. i swear on my soul that i tell the truth and nothing but the truth... can marc Asquith of the bhpa do the same? ive just said it.and now you?... if you can tell the truth barrister for the bhpa. a copy has been made. as things can get erased cant they.= the facts. 24/12/17 Emporda Spain 2015_07_07_ppg-siuran-alt-emporda-spain.pdf
UP DATE DAN BURTON and who is also investigating the pensioner asquith. the spanner in the works.
I'm a C++ programmer.... But they would take then 'X" it out! I love geeks who have not sat with an end user, and seen the frustrations. Keep it pure boys... I see it all the time in industry, lol
Amazing woman just by looking this videos you can tell why you Fly. Very Very Inspiring. Thanks for sharing
Hellow, great video. Can you please upload the full names of the instruments to buy? that can be great for reference
Fantastic presentation, big fella. Thanks.
ahh, ah, errr ehhhh !!!!!!
14.59 I wanted to know what you were just saying :p v.helpful videos! Keep them coming!
Hi. Great videos! Thanks for that! I just bought a Kobo mini with XC Soar and I'm trying to silence the "sink tone" but I looked all over the options and I can't find it. Could you please tell me if there's a way of doing it. Because right now it's making flying very annoying with that continuos "sink beep". Thanks !
Thanks Nev and club members for sharing this - and Andre for the editing.
Thank you Mike.
Very good Mike. Well covered and clear.
this is bye far too much info to take in in one session
Thats why you can watch it multiple times. Magic of the internet.
For info: ref difference between 'Class G' and 'Class F', both of which are 'Open FIR'. Class F is marked just as a simple center line on the aviation maps (think of 'F' as a main road that ANY 'vehicle' can use NOT motorway/learner driver prohibited) indicating that this is a ROUTE used by aircraft (mainly airliners) BUT a route that is NOT busy enough to require 'controlled' protection of Class E or D (or A).... So a Handy Hint for paraglider pilots flying in the 'Open FIR' but within 5nm of the Class F center line and thermaling above the 'transition altitude' can use the 'quadrant rule' to INCREASE their visual scan in the appropriate direction for the 'Quadrant' that airliners would be coming from AT THAT ALTITUDE.... NB as Class F is a line only TWO (of the 4) quadrants will be used by aircraft actively utilizing 'F'..... this giving 'conflicting' powered aircraft a 1,000ft VERTICAL separation (roughly speaking a airliner heading NE will be at a 'odd flight level) say 5,000ft, 7,000ft, 9,000ft etc nominally... while airliners flying SW will be at an EVEN FL, i.e. FL 40, 60, 80 etc. :-)
For safe flying Paraglider pilots should be aware that (laminar) air flow past the surface of the wing does NOT decrease the total pressure rather it results in a reduction in STATIC pressure (the equation given by Bernoulli is balanced by the increase in Dynamic pressure)while the total pressure remains a constant... 'Nota Bene' in fact for Bernoulli to be applicable the Total Pressure MUST be a CONSTANT..
