There are tons of sources available when it comes to tips and tricks for flying, be it YouTube, various blogs, magazines, podcasts or social media. But how to make all this knowledge available simply and in a condensed version? I explain my solution to the problem in this post.
A FAI triangle around the Kreuzeck Group. Start at the most famous take off in southern austria, flying along the river Drau, enter later Möllvalley and back to the Drauvalley.
The fact that many paraglider pilots are only interested in aviation law, which is actually an important topic in aviation, only occasionally and often only to prepare for exams, should be changed, thought Hans Lang. He was with us in Munich at the bodenlos e.V. to bring the topic closer to us.
It has been known and discussed for a long time that a trimmed glider at best simply starts badly, but in the worst case it can even be life-threatening. But how can I check the trim of my glider myself?
The Karwendel Triangle - the classic near Munich to fly a 100 km triangle according to FAI rules from Brauneck. I myself have tried it 3 times, but unfortunately have failed early so far. I hope, with good planning, that it will be in 2023.
The flight from the Wallberg, close to the lake Tegernseee, to Koessen is a challenge for XC beginners, or pilots like me which are new in this area. I guess the key point is to cross the Inntal valley, but I think on a good thermal day the task is manageable.
