  • @pilot865 I agree. 16 is in powered aircraft.

  • Hi Evan,

    Don't know if you will ever read this since you posted your video over four years ago. I remember my first solo in a 2-33 back in 1981 when I was 18. Hemet/Ryan airport Hemet California where I used to fly shut down there operation a while back.

    I am very proud to see you soaring at such a young age. By the way that was a sweet sweet landing.

  • Get vid' Why cant woman just shut up !?! jod job dude..

  • @liketoridebike14 the glider

  • Who breaks the rope the glider or the plane

  • i love gliding , we use the same model glider , but we use winches and trucks to get the glider airborn

  • usually students first solo landing is the best so far. i'm not sure why but it happened to me too

  • no sir, in the US you can solo a glider at the age of 14. Look it up

  • no... 14 to be a student pilot, flying with an instructor. You have to be 16 to go on solo. I got my gliding license with this aircraft

  • Great video. Awesome landing!
