Flying gliders since 1980

Flightsimming since 1992

AMD Ryzen 5600x, 32GB RAM, GPU Nvidia RTX 3060 Ti 8 GB, 1 TB and 500 GB nvme2 SSD drives, HP 27" 60Hz LED monitor @ 1920x1080, T16000, Hotas from old X52 Pro, Saitek Combat Rudder Pro (2010 model)

I do it by climbing to altitude, pulling the mixture back and pulling the nose up to stop the windmilling prop.  Always an interesting experience to put the aircraft back on the ground. I remember on my PPL check ride in a C-150 the exameter did that to me. I picked out a field and was just going over the fence when he pushed the throttle back in.  Luckily the engine was still running in this case. I too would like to see a glider of some sort in the sim.

I remember the early days of gliding when you rarely made it back to your home field and instead had to rely on a friend in a Land Rover with a trailer to come get you from some cabbage patch somewhere. Assuming you didn't get ravaged by a bull or the farmer's daughter!

Same now with the para gliders in Devil's Hole, Brighton UK.

I hope that Ultralight trike will also be available, it's always fun to do some slow sightseeing with it.
