Got tired of flying powered aircraft and went for a change of pace.

After completing the mission, I tried my own flight over Minden:

Cool

It's a lot quieter way to fly Wink

"Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth and danced the skies on laughter silvered wings. Sunward I've climbed and joined the tumbling mirth of sun split clouds.....and done a hundred things you have never dreamed of.....wheeled and soared and swung high in the sunlit silence. Hovering there, I've chased the shouting wind along and flung my eager craft through footless halls of air.

Up, up the long, delerious, burning blue I've topped the wind swept heights with easy grace where never Lark, nor even Eagle flew. While with silent lifting of mind I've trod the high untrespassed sanctity of space, put out my hand and touched the face of god"

Hi SkyHawk00

Good shot and Gliding is a lot of fun as long as it is done in a glider and not something with four engines... Grin

If you are interested in my first glider flight, take a look at:

Cheers...Happy Landings...Doug

Looks like fun Cool

Most people think that flying a plane is dangerous, except pilots because they know how easy it is.
Arguing with a pilot is like wrestling with a pig in the mud, after a while you begin to think the pig likes it.
