  • in normal flight what speed what do you fly at in that beast?

  • @hargreavesjn123 Anywhere between 50-130 kts, it really depends on what you're doing at the time.

  • Isn't that little string on the canopy supposed to be pointed straight back?

    "Step on the ball, step away from the string."

  • In big wing class, which this is, it's usually a good idea to keep string slightly on the outside of the turn, extra precautions so that not to stall the inner wing. But hey thanks for the tip!

  • Ok, I can accept that. Biggest I've flown is AS-W17, and one doesn't really want to be yawing about in that ship.

    I didn't mean to be overly critical, it is a fine video and I really enjoyed it. Thank you for posting, and keep flying!

  • Not at all, comments always welcome, glad you enjoyed. The EB 28 has a 28 meter wing span, so very few gliders are bigger. They are amazing in weak conditions, stays up for ever.

    Brings back memories.

  • what does this annoying bleeping sound mean??? 

  • @elithe15th between 200,000 and 500,000 euro, google "binder flugzeugbau"

    What is the best thing to do, if I want to fly in the mountains too? I fly now over 5 years, and it would be lovely to fly in the alps... Do you have any tips?

    Thnx
