Glider winch launch - cool angle

With a boom out in front of a Grob 103 Twin II sailplane and a video camera out there shooting back at the glider, we winch launched, flew a few wiffer-dills and then landed. Cool angle! Makes me want to go again just watching it.

ah this brings back memories when i first got to do this, very fantastic views you get with this airplane oh and it may not look like it but its a very smooth ride even going through clouds, btw very nice video m8.

very cool camera angle

i have flown that plane and the grob 109 powered glider (and many other glider types) while stationed in germany in giebelstadt and we wore those flexible beach sun hats.. cause your head can cook in those canopys even tho u can get up there where its dam cold lol.. Great launch by the way, thats all i did was winch starts, never tried a tow launch.

amazing landing!

Thanks for sharing the video. I just purchased a winch and am anxious to get it up and running.

Your passenger gave you thumbs up and said it all . . . AWESOME!!! You talked him through all of it and you both looked like you had the flight of your lives. I loved watching it. Happy gliding!!!

Good launch, has the guy in the back got good line of sight with that PEAK baseball cap on, I did'nt think they were aloud ?? bad skills in my book, hey ho would'nt like to be in the same airspace as them, good luck !

@spuduk7
The guy in the back is a passenger. There are no hat rules here in the US, but baseball hats are a bad choice both for visibility and the pain that comes from smacking the little button on the top if your head hits the canopy for some reason. :-)
