Glider Exploring Fillmore Mountains in Utah

[@garik64]

Thank you for this great flight. It's like I was flying by myself.

[@BrunoVassel]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@martbosman8373]

@@BrunoVassel Just an idea, use the camera this guy has: kzbin.info/www/bejne/o5mbnaqQYspooJo It's the closest to sitting in the glider yourself that I have seen.

[@pertorner2922]

I hope that you can glide soon (saw the thing with FAA). Just found this channel and now I think gliders are the coolest thing on the planet! 😊

Hello I'm 15 and last summer I was 14 I did my first ever solo flight in a ASK 21 sure you herd of her she is kind of acrobatic and really fun to fly loved it and next year il be 16 and I'm gonna be able to examine for my privet license im in Spain by the way and flying in the border between France and Spain is amazing when covid is out of the way you should go I'm sure you will enjoy it have fun flying.

[@auslandserfahrungen]

Your movies are great. You seem to be an expert for flying a sailplane. I especially like your comments. They tell me, that you are really full of respect for flying and all for depending on them. This is very important to handle the plane in difficult situations. And your sense of humour and enthusiasm. Although you always look easy to fly the plane. I already have looked plenty of your uploads.

[@davidream5175]

I love it when you show the elevation and air speed on your screen and can watch you go up and down while listening to the vario!

[@jeffcard3623]

I love exploring with you, Bruno. Thanks for bringing us along for the adventure!

I wish I wasn't an absolute mouth breather when it came to flying. These videos are amazing for those of us who can afford neither glider/paramotor or a 3090 for MS Simulator. Edit: Oh ya, subbed

Excellent footage again. The new camera position is really good , i can now read all your instruments. Thanks for the work you put in to the uploads it's appreciated and they're enjoyed. Thank you.

You inspire me. I need to be a glider pilot. Would love to give it a try. Absolutely fascinating stuff. Thanks for the informative commentary in the videos. I have learned so much from watching your full length videos. Best channel on youtube.

Would be cool to see an altimeter display over these videos. Awesome.

[@theretroman3862]

Oh man, this is amazing! Reminds me of some flying back in 2006, also last time I flew a glider or anything.... :\

[@Ckfabworks]

Bruno i watched a video where you were gliding over some beautiful canyons in Utah and you had the gopro on your head so we could see were you were looking. I really loved that view felt like I was in the glider too. If you get the opportunity it would be awesome if you could mount the camera to your head again. Thank you for the amazing videos. You have inspired me to sine up for a ride with the local gliders club in wa wen the season starts back up.

[@jeffdunlap2754]

I love watching your videos, it's very relaxing, but I wondered you ever get bored just sitting there for hours.

[@justme.9711]

Have a safe xmas Bruno. It's 34 celcius here, long way from Utah.

That was fun thanks again ! The virus put a stop to my training this summer.. But I own a altralight ya and I’m still flying love it 👍✈️ maybe in the fall I’ll be gliding again .

[@revivedrock488]

Hey Bruno, I just wanted to say that I love your videos. I have all my flight students watch them when I want to emphasis "finger tip controls" while doing IFR work. While I don't fly gliders, I'm very interested to try one of these days! Keep up the great work.

[@brunovassel8417]

Thanks for the kind words! You need to go fly a glider and see for yourself how amazing they are. Cheers.

[@SVSky]

Just rode in a sailplane after 7 years of hang gliding and 2 years of having a power PPL, inspired me to get an add-on!

[@Ullteppet2]

Nice with some mountain flying. Some Day... in the future...i would go gliding in the US For now.. the lokal mountains have to do the job

[@thomthumbe]

Making a comment for a friend: Look at 2:25 for about a minute. It put a smile on my face!

this would be totally epic with a 360 degree camera mounted in a good spot... any idea where would be best?

[@gunabitez]

on his helmet?

[@marijnfly]

Close to the center of gravity, on the fuselage behind the canopy: kzbin.info/www/bejne/kInGoGydfMtln9k

[@ViralTuber]

@@marijnfly I'd like to see footage from one mounted to the underside of the fuselage, so that every bit of the ground can be seen/scanned.

[@PureGlide]

If you put tape on your lid, can you actually eject it if you need to bail out?! Obviously blocking bail out is a really bad idea :) Unless you don't fly with a chute at all?! Get some surgical tube and seal it up with that I suggest. Or use the plastic wrap method with some sealant.

[@TushhsuT]

Because of the cabin glass, the only difference between 4k and 720 is that one can exactly count all hairs on Bruno's arms :)

[@patrykrog8121]

In 2019 you made a video of a air show and said you lost your licence so its good to see you flying again. What are the costs of flying a glider as i would really like to try it out? Im currently 16 and saving money to do my licence for ppl as i want to become a airline pilot one day. Ive heard that gliding is a lot cheaper and that many people start like that so do you think its worth a try?

[@GerstBladeworks]

If its you're dream. Then absolutely

[@defaultgamer34857]

At my club it’s about $30 for a tow to 3,000, and then $10-14 an hour for the glider but you have to pay for a full hour. There is also a $40 a month membership fee to the club. I’m on scholarship rn which includes 35 flights, instruction, and materials. Look and see if there are any opportunities like that for you.

[@justme.9711]

Hey Bruno, or anyone who can answer - PLEASE! What level of instrumentation/help can you get from just ipad apps these days. I love your display of track and climb to be able to track the thermal that you are in, but can you get that on any ipad/phone apps????

[@jmckaskle]

Got me looking for local soaring clubs like a crazy person.

I'm interested in knowing about your callsign/tail number. Is it based on the plane's registration number? If not, is it assigned somewhere? Is there a list available online? Just wondering. Thanks. I enjoy your videos and have watched quite a few.

Stephen A. Wolfe thanks for watching. My call sign is for contest flying. Nothing to do with tail number. Do a google search for glider contest ID database. Cheers!

Very nice Bruno. I have been following you since the Phobus days. I flew gliders at Krey field in southern California. Then got into paragliders. Have been thinking about getting back into sailplanes. Here's a video from Cedar mountain a few years ago. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rWKZdHaBiMZ5fqM

@@tarunbasra8230 It is so easy to add that info on the video while recording so .... why not? I really can not see the dashboard clearly

[@sharonr2121]

What is the point of that little dancing thing on your windshield?

[@ChrisWilliams-tw6oe]

Its a yaw string. Helps to notice when the glider is balanced correctly when turning without looking in the cockpit at the turn and slip indicator

[@jop5827]

You use it to see how much rudder you need to put in, if its in the middle your good. If its not in the middle you start slipping.

[@sharonr2121]

Chris Williams, ah, okay. Thank you.

[@sharonr2121]

Maximus Lockhart, that makes sense. Danke.

[@ChrisWilliams-tw6oe]

@Maximus Lockhart It has nothing to do with wind direction. It is all to do with the application of rudder in a turn. Relates to the primary and secondary effects of controls.

[@taktischekartoffel]

Should be coming out of suspension about now.
