Another soaring flight to over 3,000 ft lasting 36 minutes. This time at a different club and it was just a little bit blue. Feel free to help improve my flying. This Junior has no radio :S

  • Shouldn't you coordinate your turn better? To me it seems you are applying to much rudder to the right. But, I'm a rookie so I can be wrong.

  • The string's to the left, I needed more right rudder. At that time I'd done 10 hours, I've since done another 10. Hopefully with some improvement! :)

  • Who was doing the look out bit then?

  • The image is from a camera, my eyes did the lookout! :P

  • Should've been at 40 kts :S

  • I've been told by many professional glider pilots that having a little bit of slip (as you did) in a thermal seems to work better. I just took their word for it because sometimes the thermals are strong enough that I get too lazy to fly right :D

  • You are right - you needed right rudder. My bad :)

  • Thermalling too fast!
