Wonderful shots...well done... Wink

Lots of soaring and several different glider types around here.

The Royal Canadian Air Cadets do a lot of glider flying in this area as well... Wink

Spectacular views of the Great Lakes and inland waterways, the 1000 Islands and much much more.... Smiley

One of our members here at Simviation (Global Moderator) is also a Glider Pilot.
Contact Sean..."beaky" if you want to know anything about Glider Aviation as I am sure he will be happy to discuss the finer points about it.
 

Cheers...Happy Landings...Doug

thanks!  Wink
I'm a gliderpilot as well ( if i can call myself a gliderpilot after 3 months)
also, i signed up to be a belgian air cadet, let's hope i get it, that would be awesome  Cool
the view up there and the silence, that's what i like about flying, just so free.
Personally, i like the duodiscus the most and it would be really nice to have it in real life!

greets from high above!
