    The last 2 minutes perfectly show why this is not just a sport. It is the whole life, every weekend, together with all your friends, and friends you make. And it is true that airfield partys, especially from gliding clubs, are the best partys ever! Great Video!

    Aviation is a life long passion. Precisely why I chose being an airline pilot as my profession. And on days off, more flying!!

      I'm a teenager currently and I really want to become an airline pilot. I agree with you, I've had a passion for aviation ever since the first time I flew on a plane, it has always had a special place in my heart.

      alpw1234 yup lol. Just like any other aircraft, you get a CPL and your first job is teaching people to fly the plane you just learnt to fly. Same deal with gliders I assume since someone needs to instruct on them. I would imagine you still need a CPL and CFI though so it would probably be more of a passion then a desired career.
      Not very familiar with sail planes but it’s definitely on my todo list for aircraft to fly. They look like so much fun once you master finding thermals and can stay up for hours/1000+ miles on a single tow.

    • @RCxtwin
      @RCxtwin 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      haha no:D this is just the noise of the air when flying with high speeds, this is normal ;)
      and the trail behind them is water which they're releasing, they carried it so the plane is heavier and can go faster, but before landing it's released again;)

    • @UKJuniorGlidingTV
      @UKJuniorGlidingTV  9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Just the airflow over the gliders... but these one's do actually have jet turbines fitted! They are JS1's, made by Jonker Sailplanes

      +Majdi Hamdi In the US one must have a pilot's license to fly anything, including gliders. However, one does not have to have a medical certificate for them.

    All of this low passes with high speed and water inside are in my eyes a heavy violation of all security advises we give to new pilots. And filming this with a handheld camera - wow - suicide is near. Sorry, but this are unneeded risks - I lost a friend who thought this is a good finish after competition a flight. He is dead now, RIP.
