it's really the most wonderful feeling ever. i did that one time in my life as visitor. and i soo want to do that again (:
it seemed so unrealistic when you saw the ground getting smaller and smaller and smaller. just awesome :)

The rear view gives a good impression of just how steep the launch is. Awesome!!

It looks like you rotate dangelously fast

I make it about a one second safety climb and a 4 second rotation to the full climb angle, which is fine for a powerful winch.

Fantastic perspective! Amazing the number of glider trailers you have there at :32! I have never seen so many in one place. Really good job.

Lasham is the biggest gliding club in the UK and probably the World!

How many different gliders do you have based there? How many different pilots fly there over the course of a year? Again, cool video. I have done a tail cam but not this view.

I believe about 140 gliders. We have about 700 members + visitors.
