Gliding in a glider race in the mountains is flying any sailplane at its best. Guess who just stuffed the first sentence with keywords. Haha. This flight shows a sailplane (glider) flying from the Logan, Utah area up into the southern Idaho mountains competing against a couple of dozen other gliders. The task and entire flight lasted just over 3 hours and the glider flew over a 225 mile course line. The glider is an ASW27B 15 meter high performance ship with a glide ratio of 48:1 and a top speed of 180 mph. I hope you really enjoy this last video of 2019 and I look forward to sharing a bunch more flying in 2020 with you! Cheers! Bruno - B4
