If anyone thinks range anxiety in an electric car is bad... give this a try!
World Record is over 3000 Km. With good weather you can easily do a couple of hundred Km.
nothing to it .... just need faith and balls
at least with a Tesla you can get a backup generator just in case. but nope, with this thing you either time it right or you're fucking done...
@@joshualaw375 this probably costs half a tesla though

ptrk47 How were you able to view my browsing history??!
@Tommy Dylan yea seems legit totally no bots
"There's a sailplane right to your left" - "Should I rock my wings at him?"
Nah you should puke into that little white bag instead.
"This is called a yaw string" that's yarn with tape.
But it's very important yarn with tape; every glider has one
And I'm pretty sure they make special versions.
Never heard something more funny .... buddy
You can't get any more high tech than that.
Back in the early 50's my dad was flying the F-80 and this ain't no chit, he used a yaw string.
Almost made it without vomiting until the very end haha.
If you flex your stomach muscles as hard as you can during those zero g moments, it significantly helps cut down on that queasy feeling.
Isn't that what fighter pilots do?
Close. Fighter pilots flex their leg muscles during high-G turns to squeeze blood up to their heads.
Ah,okay,thanks for the reply!
The only thing more nasty than barfing by one's self is watching somebody else do it.
Dive brakes go up...Dive brakes go down. Dive brakes go up...Dive brakes go down. Up down up down up down.

Watch the 1st Miata review.

DStroyerPA Vomit comes up... Dignity goes down... Vomit comes up... Dignity goes down...
It must have smelled so bad in there after you threw up haha, good thing it was right at the end
Would this make a good daily?
If you're gonna daily any sailplane, daily this one. Super docile to fly, decent cross-country performance, as rugged as they come, and it can do aerobatics for when you go to an airshow... bro. Plus they're still making 'em, so parts are no problem.
Just dont slam it and put it on the tarmac.
Rane Buyser nice one
Heck yeah, fist gas, then tesla... screw tesla I'm flying and don't have a battery
Great fuel economy!
Guess why we are wearing those silly hats? Forgetting your hat here will land you the hefty a fine of a case of beer for the Club.
And yes, people have crashed because they flew without hat and fainted.

this is not regular and this is not a car
what the hell
yea what is this tomfoolery
It's Regular as Fuck. I don't know any Glider Pilot who hasn't sat in a 21 at least once.
[heat-mon] I love shit like this. The weirder the better.
ASK 21 is as regular as they come. Does everything from beginner training to aerobatics, every club has one, and it's been in production for 28 years now.
38 years
It'd not flying, it's falling with style.
Naaaaa. It's soaring like the hawks.
Naaa, that is is the real flying. Well, I may be biased.
You're lucky to have had a tow plane instead of a winch. The force and angle of a winch launch would have made this a whole different experience :-)
and a cable break off a winch tow at 100' is really exciting
What do you do if that occurs? Do you have enough airspeed at that altitude to 180 and put it down? Do you go full breaks and hope there is enough runway to stop? Didn't hear them radio in that at all, was he giving position reports? Sincerely a curious helicopter pilot.
@@arzosahsothy there are SOP's for cable snaps.... 50feet... 100feet...250feet. Usually depends on the length of the tow cable/distance to winch.
@@arzosahsothy For winch tow you must have a field of at least 2500ft, more likely 3000-4000. with that length and the steep angle of ascent you can land straight up to 300-350ft when the cable breaks. Above that you can either do a 180 turn or an abbreviated circuit. No need for emergency fields around the airport like with aero tow.
Props to the instructor for introducing adverse yaw!
My sole intention was learning to fly.
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit
I
Flew ASK-21 in 1984, before going for PPL... Unforgettable times!
I’m dead! 😂😂😂😂 Note: his barf bag is labeled “baby care!” 😂😂😂 🤢
LMAO and on the other side it said "FEEL BETTER" as if that's gonna do a damn thing...
There's a small airport by my house in Morgantown PA that has little gliders that take off there all the time. I was always curious about flying these things thanks for sharing so I could see inside! Very cool
This looks like a hell of a lot of fun!
That barf in gratuitous slow motion. Just epic.
To help with the motion sickness next time; drink lots of water before you go up, take a leak, then get in the aircraft with a water bottle and sip on it during the flight. This will keep you hydrated, help keep you cool, keep your digestive track moving in the right direction, and keep the contents of your stomach diluted. This trick also works for scuba diving trips on a dive boat when you aren't use to the motion of the ocean.
A very satisfying video, even with the vomiting. I hope that doesn't turn you off of doing more videos like this, particularly if you head back to that area again -> going to the Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome airshow in the summer is worth the trip.
I USE THE THE AVIONICS TO FIND MY WIFES CLITORIS!!
10/10 best comment here...
ASK-21 is my favorite glider to fly!!
So what I've learned from this video, is that if you yaw and don't adjust the rudder simultaneously, you'll basically drift the plane. Running in the 90s but Running in the above 1000 feet.
I could hear the hesitation/panic after takeoff when he was talking about getting sick. Thats exactly how i get in planes sometimes haha.
this was some great youtube content.
I would love to see you get into aviation and do aviation reviews.
I'm imagining that "yaw string" getting pulled off the windshield mid-air. Just yarn and clear tape... I wonder if that's how it came from the factory lol
MAN_ON_WHEELZ yes, this is the trusted and true method since about 80+ years.
Thanks for the perfect demonstration lesson. I hope you will upload more meaniful sails
plane video.
Thanks for the lesson.
Love from England
I never get airsick unless I'm looking through a glass tube. I got airsick on the ground on a windy day, just practicing keeping the wings level while the tow plane was getting fuel.
Flat Earth Confirmed
I ve been telling people since 1964 nobody belived me
a.m it was a joke. Just like you are
Good stuff haha. I used to fly gliders myself, so I know all about the barfing bag ;)
The heat of an RX-7 and the range anxiety of a fully electric car from the 90s
the e vario is not in fact unnecessary, the sound enables you to judge your climbing/sinking rate without looking a the vario all the time!
Oh man, the slow mo sound when he vomits with his knobby knees... I can’t remember the last time I laughed that hard.
Staying coordinated with a Yaw String: Step on the knot. Longer wings on a glider == greater adverse yaw == needs more rudder input.
The ASK-21 was the only sailplane I was a passenger in. Years ago, in Porta Westfalica, Germany. Turbulences, the plane was goeing 5 m up and 8 m down and 5 m up and 7 m down and so on... At least; I didn't puke.
Perfect time to have a deep mundane convo. Therapy in the big blue.
6:14 wow RCR put a fake curve effect on the video smh. :^)
Doc I'm very confident that is glass...
I was trying to make a flat earther joke :^(
@@WoWMinGM :^|
Good video lad. Feel for yah air sickness....
How come Pilotwings 64 hanglider music was playing in my head as I watched this?
Marquis M. I love that game
Kudos to you, Mr. Regular, because I get airsick just watching this. Which means, irl, I would've been in total agony.
Please review a 1999-2004 Chrysler 300m. The type of car you're dad gets to celebrate his promotion as manager at H&R Block
NOW THIS IS THE CONTENT I CAME TO SEE!!!
Worth watching for the end
*WHAT DO THESE PILLS DO*
That's the guy that had the Lumina.
Can't believe you're not coming to Australia mate. Please review a BMW e39
He reviewed an E38, but they're completely different animals. Mr Regular, if you do decide to review an E39, make sure its a 540i manual. You will be surprised.
Yes E39 would be great, M5, 528i, 540i they are all great
GOING DOWN?!?!?
That doesn't sound right while he is controlling the glider, lol.
Awesome video !
Hey RCR i don't know what you do to help with your motion sickness, but speaking from personal experience, ginger ale has saved my skin during my flight training.
I WANT TO FLYYYYYY LIKE AN EAGLE
I have a chronic phobia of flying so this video was absolute hell and torture to watch. But still a great video !
A bag full of youtube content.
If you were to buy one classic car to drive every day, and I mean pre-60’s what would it be? Btw that thing looks like so much fun to just glide

Gilbert G. Or 57 belair coupe
I'd go for a split window beetle. They're reasonably reliable for a classic car and beetle parts are cheap and easy to find.

Probably late on this comment but a 1950 Chevrolet deluxe four door sedan
Ask-21 is like flying a tank. Heavy,, slow and It punches straight trough everything. Nothing flips that thing. :-)
It is not easy to get the string steady at the middle at the beginning 😆 all my respect to the instructors for being so patient on that... I was becoming anxious by just watching the video. "Yes that's fine..." he said, just not not demotivate the student on his first flight 😆 I just saw myself in that situation.
any one else noticed they pulled off at 4500 as on the ground the altimeter was set to 500 feet ASL (At sea level)
Like most student pilots or those used to powered planes, his head is in the cockpit looking at the instruments. Look up and look out!!
I did my intro flight.. and I got scared... I kept looking at the intruments thinking its a car... at one point it was too much to bear and I totally had a brain fog... so shameful :P

That rattling on takeoff would've made me puke right away. Holy shit like flying in a sled.
the landing is 100 times worse
Those are instruments not gauges :-) and its not falling, its gliding to earth quietly.
Love those negative g's ..... You need to try a whip stall next time.
He said "glider". @ 0:39 & again later.
Slow motion and repeating real barf!
12:45 for the good stuff
WE NEED A REGULAR BOAT REVEIW
Yes we do!
not much in the bag, you might find your stomach is more settled if you eat before you fly. Clearly don't have a full meal, but something to eat a little while before will help
How to land:
"Just remember, F U STALL!"
*There's brown inside that bag*
ahh delicious
WE GOT VOMIT PEOPLE
Looks fun
More aviation videos !!!!!!
Is ASK-21 an actual sailplane or just a glider?
This entire ride looked like a load of fun... but scary as shit
I have a radio controlled model from it!
How are the avionics powered? Is there a battery on the plane that needs to be charged manually or is there some wind turbine generator charging a battery?
It's just a plain old battery in the cockpit.
12V lead acid battery. Not too much drain with a sailplane, usually just the radio and electric variometer. Sometimes a GPS/ computer. Trickle charge when not flying.
Give us the unedited glory juice
"Fly Like An Eagle"
i like the part where mr regular wretches into the bag. 😈
Regular breakfast re-review
+RegularCars Which airport did you fly from?
When I read the title, first thing that came to mind was Tom petty
Which red string is best red string
0:56 Vegan Planeeeeeeee
Waiting for the Lexus es300
Very interesting.
But how much faster would this be with an LS?
Flyyyyyy on your wiiiiiiings like and eagl-HOORK!
"Aw, you almost made it!"
Mr. Regular is apparently not metal enough for flying on a thing that only gives you one shot at landing before going splat.
Just the thought of landing put the ol' bowels on alarm.
I think Mr Regular got overheated more than anything. Had he had a better airflow I think he would have been fine.
Is this the same dude in the beginning who owned the lumina? 😂😂
Yep!
I fuckin' died at 12:40
When u work at that airport
Which barf bag is best barf bag ? ;)
The one that's on hand when you're barfing.
Nani?! Kensei dorifto!
Arctic Avenger **intense eurobeat kicks in**
LMAO watched the whole video, loved it you made my day... May I know what airport it is please?
F U S T A L L makes landing a breeze
The joystick sort of thrusting around between your legs was a little disconcerting.
Hahaha awwwight, yeeeeep, Raaaaaaalph
Nice
