Glider pilot skill test
29.10, a murky day with very marginal VFR weather (more like Special VFR) and no clear horizon, passed the skill test, for the glider pilot license. And it was a pleasure flying 6 takeoffs and landings
(including winch cable broke simulation at 100 meters) with the Flight Examiner lady.
Flying a glider in Budapest
Flying a glider in Budapest, at MAV Repuloklub. Very friendly guys over there, I have arranged everything on email with them, couple of weeks before arriving. Also, very competitive rates for renting a glider.
Glider: PW-6U Standard class
Flight Intructor: Gabor Gangl
First solo flight
Finally, near the end of the flight season, the time for my first solo flight in a glider has come.
Got two solo flights in a row thanks to my flight instructor :). And yes, this time nobody was in the backseat anymore.
