My fourteenth birthday was the best time to learn to fly gliders. Today is the 18,976th best time, but that is no reason not to live our ancestors' wildest dreams.

Bad weather beaten! Exciting sortie that was meant to be 3 minutes @ 1,500ft turning into a 25 minute 3,000ft climb followed by an "expedited" descent back to Earth to avoid the showers. So good to be back aloft again since January.

Nerd-Thema für Besitzer von Glasflügel Segelflugzeugen (Libelle, Hornet, Kestrel): Bei der Jahresnachprüfung gern genauer auf die Flügel-Beschläge schauen. Die rosten gern, was von außen unter dem Harz sehr schwer zu erkennen ist. Falls jahrelang nichts gemacht wird, schaut es so aus wie bei dieser Hornet. War teuer...

Gliding Like a Grasshopper
Many biorobots are built after flies and bees–insects that rely heavily on flapping flight. For small robots, this means carrying heavy batteries or remaining tethered in order to power their motors. Instead, researchers have turned to grasshoppers for a lesson in small-scale gliding.
Grasshoppers have two sets of wings. The forward set provide protection and camouflage, while the hindwings are used to fly. The team studied the corrugated, foldable hindwings of the American grasshopper, then 3D-printed model wing designs and attached them to gliders. They found that the corrugated wings performed well at low angles of attack, but that non-corrugated wings–which still shared the outline and camber of the insect’s wings–were more efficient gliders over a range of conditions.
The team hopes that their grasshopper-inspired gliders give insect-like biorobots more efficient flying options. (Image credit: Princeton/S. Khan/Fotobuddy; research credit: K. Lee et al.; via Physics World)

Glasflügel Fly-In 2026 im Juni
Erstmals kommt das legendäre Glasflügel Fly-In in den Norden!Vom 25. bis 28. Juni ist über Goch-Asperden (EDLG) unweit der niederländischen Grenze mit vermehrten Libellen-Aufkommen zu rechnen.
Teilnehmer sollten sich zeitig auf der Homepage des Glasflügelvereins anmelden.

I sometimes think the nicest part of any great flying day is actually when I get back home, to the comfort of my desk, and can reflect properly on the aerial adventures had.

Three Xmas achievements - first time driving a tractor(!), first time flying Alpha Foxtrot, in wonderfully quiet and smooth conditions, and after two months am now solo again on aerotow #gliding #aviation #pilot #christmas #silentSunday

If you decide you need about 16lb of ballast in the nose, and also some kind of blank-firing bird-scarer, I believe there are options... -

Here's a way to travel abroad that I hadn't considered. 🙃 But seriously, it must feel so, so awesome to be "Above It all".
Captured from Brevent in the French Alps last season (wish I could go back for Christmas this year...).

🦀 in case anyone else needs it, I created a `xcsoar-tasks` crate. a reader/writer for XCSoar `.tsk` files. 👨✈️

"Above It All". And not just literally; you could make any number of critiques of how the few who are already privileged get to live life like this, but you know what? This is one of those moments where I feel like I just want to be up there with them. Perhaps, one day...
