Gliding

The first time is a big stress, the second is a big tension to do it right. The third time is just awesome, especially if you fly for over two hours in a perfect sky, you go up to 2800 metres, the instructor shows you a loop and a low pass but he lets you do all the rest.

Afterwards it's impossible to stay on the ground, you just have to go again ASAP. But the weather conditions may change and one may end up playing scrabble while waiting for the sky to clear up.

Funny to be caught absent minded while rewatching in your head the last landing, to figure out how to do it right next time. And thinking how it is when you fly solo. Well, i know, a bit early to say after just 6 flights and not really knowing how to use the airbrakes right.

Few days left. All hopes in good weather.
