Gliding in Austria (xp11)

Would you go gliding when you can't see the ground at all :wink: ?

Most probably not, if you are not suicidal.  :smile:  Still, a superb shot!!

Any attempt to stretch fuel is guaranteed to increase headwinds

Depends upon the skill and experience level of the pilot and the instrument suite in the glider. Still it is very risky.

 

At my current level I'm still trying to get a circuit (pattern) sorted out in full VFR!  :fool:

That shot is absolutely amazing! Never was into gliders but I may have to pick one up!

A more natural way for humans to fly, minus the flapping wings and feathers of course!  :wink:

If you raised the wheel, assuming it is animated, you'd go a lot further.
