Sweet video man! Been thinking of trying soaring next now that i have my PPL. What's your take on the self-launchers?
FooliusTheDrooliest 3 weeks ago
@FooliusTheDrooliest Self-launchers can be really cool if you don't have easy access to a local tow plane or you want to tour the country and fly out of any airport you want. That said, they are noisy, require heavy costly maintenance, smell like fuel in the cockpit, can be less than 100% reliable, etc. Start with pure gliders and then see what you think. Best of luck, Bruno

Whats the top speed you can fly on the IAS before you leave the safe zone? I guess this depends on the size of the wing right?

@Skippy585 The Vne of this glider is around 175 miles per hour. Pretty crazy huh? The Vne is very carefully calculated by the manufacturer and is most often limited to avoid flutter in the control surfaces. One interesting note about Vne is that you have to fly slower the higher up you go due to true airspeed and flutter issues. Thanks for watching. Bruno
