It's a rule for paragliders that they are not allowed to fly into the clouds. If you get into clouds or Fog, you absolute Orientation - and what ist most dangerous - Planes or other flying objects cant see you.
Paraglider dürfen nicht in die Wolken oder in den Nebel fliegen. Man verliert absolut die Orientierung und was am Gefährlichsten ist, andere Flieger und Flugzeuge können einen nicht sehen..

  • Getting into clouds is dangerous... but getting all the way up and getting out from above is one of the most exciting moments in xc flight :P

  • wait iz dis real becos im confused peeple are saying its fake but it lookz real

  • Keep clear of clouds in Airspace Golf. Keep your distance to clouds in Echo where IFR is flown. Makes sense: Even if you are just close to the cloud, a plain coming out of it with 300 mph will have a hard time to evade you.

  • @parenspatriae2k No - it is Adorage by Prodad.

  • nie wieder wolkenflug hab ich mir schon nach meiner prüfung im segelflugzeug gesagt...

  • Zwar etwas übertrieben aber mit Wirkung, deshalb gutes Video. So etwas kann schneller passieren als man denkt.

  • Ich hasse fakes, aber dieses video macht Sinn. Es regt zum Nachdenken an.
