Doc Henry Posted September 13, 2014 Author Share #2 Posted September 13, 2014 (edited) .... How to launch the glider ? An "engine" (bottom of the photo) that pulls a very strong cable that launches the glider at full speed ! very impressive and silent mechanism !

pauledell Posted September 14, 2014 Share #4 Posted September 14, 2014 (edited) Henry, A great series. I can imagine how magical it is to glide over the countryside with the silence surrounding you. Where is your Kodak Portra? Paul Edited September 14, 2014 by pauledell 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iduna Posted September 14, 2014 Share #5 Posted September 14, 2014 Henry, very nice. I can understand this pleasure. My uncle used to launch those gliders with his motoraircraft and then the gliders were released when they were high enough to use the thermic winds above our hills here. One can see them on those typica days like birds which you mentioned. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iduna , usually it is a small plane that launches the glider Sometimes you can spend several hours in the air if we found the thermal front, in general, we spot the eagles or hawks to find this thermal front Thanks for your comment Best Henry Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
