Arnold Hoffman at Hasenhorn 1992

If you are a petrol head, this is probably not the clip for you. If you understand the poetry of soaring, you will seldom see better. Arnold Hoffman flies his home brew 6m "Shark" against the odds. 1km above the valley floor, he will launch his sailplane down a precipitous hill, where the town is about 1km below. He will also throw off into a cross wind. A breeze is wafting along the slope (right to left). The task for him, and the other fliers, is to then nail a thermal before landing out, which is likely to result in a 45 minute hike down and up the hill to retrieve of the model. Thanks to our Aussie modeller John Gottschalk for going on the holiday and recording this lovely, entertaining ans Spectacular footage.
