Flying a sailplane over Switzerland - Glider aircraft flight training - Discus 2b

It´s been calm for a while on this channel... A lot of good things happened during the past months that prevented me from creating more videos and live streams. Amongst those things is that I started my flight training for a gliders pilots license in Switzerland. Therefore, you might see some more REAL (and not only simulated) flights on this channel soon :) In this video you will find some impressions from one of my flights during the training program including the beautiful scenery over the Lake Walen region, in between the cantons of Zurich, St. Gall, Schwyz and Glarus. The weather was beautiful on that day. However, not the best conditions for gliding. Due to the late time of the year, only light winds and almost no cumulus clouds, there were hardly any thermals or dynamic lift. Thus, the flight was not really long. But still beautiful. Other pilots on that day did a better job and were able to stay in the air a bit longer. I guess practice makes it perfect... :) Hope you like the video. Wishing you all the best!
