Volcano?

@oOfretlessOo No volcanoes in Denmark. Just some warm spots due to sunheating.

@KATOMATE01 Looking at your gauges doesn't increase the safety of flying by a whole lot. I agree on that with omglpwnhard. The beeping sound just makes sure that you can keep looking outside, while getting rough information about where the thermal is stronger. Your eyes and natural skill are still very much part of the equation, most electronics are only used to increase safety and keep flying pleasant for all of us.

A few steady minutes of this beeping and I'm a happy guy :)

@KATOMATE01 - The most important job for a glider pilot is to keep looking OUT from the cockpit, watching for other traffic. Flying a glider is strictly VFR, so it's no good keeping your eyes fixed on a gauge. That's why we use audio. Any VFR pilot will tell you that.

higher the beep, more the fun.

@roguehawk07 or you can just look at your gages and not have to listen the annoying noises while trying to enjoy the flight....some of you kids wouldn't be able to survive in the old days...no fancy electronics or gps, just simple instruments, your eyes, and your natural skill.
