Gliding is the best hobby there is in the world. If your wife isnt flying you have your weekend off from her. Take your tent or van with you, dissapear on friday night, meet all the other guys, enjoy some beer and sausage at a campfire, get up early the next morning, prepare your glider in the cold sunrise, enjoy the silence all around and once weather is good enough - you take off and come back with the sunset. Then, another beer and sausages, campfire, smalltalk, meeting up with the guys who arrived on saturday - And the same on sunday again. If its raining, you can enjoy it with a good book in your tent, or just do some club stuff. Its the best there is.
You don't need a glider to leave your wife and have a sausage party, it's 2021, gays are openly welcome. Just Google "Twinkies night-club" should be one in your area, Wednesdays are half off drinks.
Back in the 70's I took lessons and my instructor was an elderly lady with a great sense of fun.... we used to buss hikers and dump our water ballast on them...….. lots of laughs from us ! :)
For everyone being mad and saying it should be banned This is an aerobatic manouvre called a finish often performed at the end of gliding races/tasks or aerobatic routines and all the pilots attemting/doing this are more then qualified and most likely have more then several years of gliding experience and have licenses
You can tell just how fast a glider is going by looking at the shape of the wings. All of them have a certain amount of dihedral, that is sloping upward from where attached to the fuselage and bow upward at the tips in normal soaring flight. At around 100 mph, the wings become perfectly flat, not bowed either way. Above that speed they take a noticeable bend downward at the tips.
All wings, fixed or rotating as in a helicopter or propeller, are made with a twist from the root to the tip, reducing the angle of attack toward the tip. It's called "wash out". Not only is this for better efficiency over a wide range of speeds but it causes separation of the airflow to begin at the fuselage and move toward the tip as the angle of attack increases or airspeed slows. As the nose is lowered to increase the speed, the angle of attack reduces to the point where there is a negative angle of attack at very high speeds creating negative lift at the tips, causing them to actually bend downward. It also involves Reynolds numbers and tip loss but it's the quick and dirty explanation above. Run the video again and you can see the downward flex in the wings toward the tips.
Naturally they will flex upward when one pulls up and applies more G force load on the wings. In flexing upward moves the center of lift toward the fuselage where the wings are stronger.
Fuentemilanos is one of the best aeroclub airfield today for gliding. Apart from amusant, it offers a real wild chances to fly those not-so-far snow mountains during full burning Castilla summer.

Yes, all about speed. And about the sailplane you're using. If you try to do that with an old one made of wood and "paper" (i don't know the exact worn in english), you won't regain much altitude than with a morden sailplane.
I've seen gliders with "popup" rocket engines that can self-launch. No tow plane! But that added weight. They need to invent one that you can eject the rocket after use and have it parachute back to the ground for reuse later. Better yet, build one like the Space-X Heavy that can RTB and land themselves. Strap that to a glider! FUN! (and maybe death. But only maybe.... it might be worth it). ;-)
@@robertzeurunkl8401 you even see it in this video, in some of the videos they are draining water from the wings. They put the water in there to ballast up the plane, because the plane has a higher base speed when it gets heavier, but it also sinks faster. So when good thermal upwinds are expected they will ballast their planes so they can finish their tasks faster, because they can compensate for the higher sink ratio
Saw someone killed doing this in an RV at Black Forest gliderport in the 90's. They did a high speed low pass and pulled up into a wing over and went in. Also a very young pilot at the old Black Forest gliderport also died doing this in a 1-26. The parents named a gliding scholarship after him. Some of you may remember the Kolstad scholarship. My point is that you really better know what you are doing.
After executing one of those... usually a tongue lashing by the glider port operator follows. (Bad example for inexperienced students). Always remember... no tow up, no flying.

The future is now, gliders with electric engines are now being produced. This is great for us because the current combustion ones are extremely unreliable, while the electric ones should be very reliable because of how simple they are. Only downside a the moment may be the range they have, but that will improve overtime. I’m gonna be shocked if by 2030 combustion engines on gliders will still be in production.

If you pedal hard enough on the rudder that'll keep it up.
@ LOL, when I was a kid I had a pulse rudder RC I built. It basically did just that, just constantly "peddling" the rudder full stop side to side, at maybe 3 Hz or so. When you input a rudder control it would "peddle" a shorter stroke to the opposite side, turning the plane. I never calculated it, but I expect even THAT amount of peddling did pretty much nothing to keep it airborne, probably even caused a goodly amount of induced drag, if I had to guess, and actually hurt the glide ratio. If I'd been thinking at the time, I could have done some glide tests with the rudder pegged center, and with it operating to see. Didn't though. Maybe better that way. ;-)
This is the "EP", a Schempp Hirth Nimbus 4 and ratio is roughly 60:1, top speed 290km/h. The Nimbus 4DM has an engine with roundabout 50HP, to maintain level with about 130 km/h I think. Regards from Germany
Robert B id the adult and child has stopped to look left at incoming aircraftthey could easily have been hit -great footage but massively dangerous in that case . The pilot must’ve checked for cables and fencing etc before flying those loops ?
Very nice. The danger with low flying, is the temptation to go lower and lower till something happens - usually death. Must decide BEFORE to quit at a safe altitude. At very high speeds, glider wingtips bend down due to 'washout'. (Look it up.)
That's right. The variometer provides audio too. Therefore you can concentrate on the other vital instruments (mainly speed, altimeter and turn and slip indicator).
@Eric Hamilton Suggest you look up the 500ft rule if you don't hold a gliding license... its there to protect members of the public like the 2 walking along the pavement....
@@paulroberts7482 I agree his approach was way too low but in this case he wasn't in violation of the 500ft rule because it doesn't apply if you're taking off or landing. (14CFR 91.119)
In a word, unlikely. Things like airspeed from diving, ground effert, thermals, wind over terrain, etc can help recover lost height, but it's hard to reach the altitude of your initial launch. Not an experienced glider pilot either though. It's also relatively easy to keep a glider in the air as long as the weather cooperates.
With a nice thermal it should be no problem. Regarding EMU EMPIRE, that's inaccurate. You can regain some altitude but altitude is always lost in a dive followed by a climb. You will need ridge lift, wave lift, or thermal lift to get you to the "same" altitude.
Fast, low passes over an unoccupied runway by a SOLO pilot are acceptable. Buzzing a populated area with people is not. Nor is buzzing a hanger, car park or anywhere else where there are people. Gliding is a dangerous sport. Gliding clubs have huge lists of safety protocols and documents. But people just have to show off. Save the ego for a computer game and fly safely. If you do not, you are just an arsehole.
I agree with the sentiment, though perhaps not the final description. While the big aviation world has been mandated into the world of safety management systems (SMS) - which includes gliding in the UK and Australia - the gliding world seems to regard itself as some sort of special outlier.

The truth is, that chemtrail pilots also have they starting point. As young they spread from gliders, then from small planes and finally from large poison-planes. Trust me, I'm talking from Internet, so it must be right.
Hmm, I think I have to say that large bank angles, low down, even at high speeds are dangerous, pull a bit too hard, and you can very easily high speed stall and flick roll into an unrecoverable spin, so, much better to pull up, wings level, then, when in the normal Gliding attitude is re established, at a sensible speed, then turn with moderate bank angles,and not pulling hard, might seem a bit less exciting, but much safer!
Glider pilots feeling like fighter pilots
In fact, on aerobatic gliders, similar G forces available and manoeuvres are much more rapid, just because of winglift

See original video. th-cam.com/video/tt9VfoN2kTA/w-d-xo.html
Looks like a mqr drone
whats the glider at about 6.30 , it just seems to have huge wings
Original video says Nimbus 4.
many thanks ,,, i dont know where the pilot kept getting the energy from ,,, spectacular
Probably from the design of the glider, the pilot's skill and the thermal/wind activity.
Brilliant flying.....
Hmm, I think I have to say that large bank angles, low down, even at high speeds are dangerous, pull a bit too hard, and you can very easily high speed stall and flick roll into an unrecoverable spin, so, much better to pull up, wings level, then, when in the normal Gliding attitude is re established, at a sensible speed, then turn with moderate bank angles,and not pulling hard, might seem a bit less exciting, but much safer!
