I don´t know how is the basic sailplane license training going in different countries but in CZ spin and stall training is mandatory part of basic training course.

Olomouc in Czech Republic 🙂

Yeah half retracted gear is a great feature especially for a training glider. I saw already few landings which were saved by this.

Ahoj, zatím to vypadá slibně. Však se musíš jednou zastavit ať si dáš nějaký i v reálu 😉Ten hluk je relativní ... po chvilce už to nevnímáš. Přijde mi, že na tom videu je to hlasitější než v reálu. To přistání bylo z prvního letu. Při tom druhém jsem chytl v poloze po větru takové klesáky, že jsem na kameru vůbec nemyslel a byl jsem rád, že jsem to dotáhl na dráhu 😄A to jsem se řadil předpisově v 550 QNH ... Někdy se zadaří no ...

Thank you Ivo! 🤝

You see that big red lever on the right side of the cockpit? That is a magical device which can make it happen. Maybe next time my friend next time I will consider it! 😅

To be honest I´m not sure if I ever saw exact procedure for this specific training course. What I experienced is that before stall and spin training flights every student goes through ground briefing and stall prevention course so he can learn about those edge flight regimes but spin is usually done first as it requires higher alt limitation than the stall training.

It didn´t ... it´s the optical illusion. I watched the sequence multiple times as lot of similar comments started to come up on this video. What I can recommend is to watch the attachment point on a tow plane when I decoupled ... you can see that the rope is staying attached at that point for a brief moment.

Hey! Thanks for your comment it´s an honor to get info from such an experienced pilot. The sequence of the aerobatics elements here isn´t really done by the "logic" of the stuff but more by the alt limitation as the spin is more alt dependent than stall. Also this wasn´t the first training flight I had for those scenarios so we were doing only some part of the training plan here. Basically extreme flight mode training (I don´t know if I translate it correctly into english) is beginning with the stall prevention than we go for the stall training and than to spins and spins from incorrectly performed turns. And how to prevent that of course. I can imagine that carrier landing must be extremely precise maneuver. Our instructors are pretty demanding in the matter of defined space landings and it´s already quite difficult with a sail plane. I can´t even imagine that I have moving RWY in front of me and I have to land precisely with almost few meters tolerance.

To je podle mě teda nejtěžší lítání. Občas mají na letišti provoz modeláři a to jakým způsobem jsou ze země schopni některé manévry odhadnout je mimo mé chápání.

@@J18Flyer Teďka Megera z Brusele stanovila vzletovou hmotnost RC na maximálně 250 gramů. Výsledné Reynoldsovo číslo tak odpovídá zhrubaa kouli ze zmačkaného papíru. S tím pak tělejte přelety mezi termickými proudy.

I´m really glad you like it. Hopefully I can add some more interesting videos from my gliding in the future. Take care!

Well that´s absolutely correct. I lowered my IAS to 60 kph which is stall speed for L23, I felt wings shaking indicating the stall and than I pulled the stick while pushing the rudder leading aircraft into the spin.

Well magnetic heading is 10 but VFR manual for LKOL says that grass RWY is 09 and asphalt RWY is 10 ... even though they are in the same mag. hdg. It´s just for the differentiation purposes.

Leading for a recovery heading is at least to my experience really a matter of training. It´s never exactly the same moment and also your reaction is never the same ... you just have to eyeball it just right to recover in a same heading.

Also bananas for potassium which is short. Potassium has to come from food. Potassium supplement pills are only tiny amount of RDA there must be a really good reason for that, too much at once must trash health big time. Find out and get your minimum protein needs, or exercise will be useless.

Well thankfully not my problem.

It indeed looks strange. Had to look with the highest resolution and and slow speed - to me it seems that the rope actually remains attached to the tow plane after all. The way the rope behaves after the release looks quite unfamiliar to me - almost like a rubber band released from one end -- perhaps they use more elastic rope than what we use at our club?

Will think about that next time 😄

L23 doesn´t have flaps. Only airbrakes.

@@J18Flyer Thanks. That's a quite unexpected news to me.
