A motor glider glowing in the sun, set against the dark, showery skies above
Bad weather beaten! Exciting sortie that was meant to be 3 minutes @ 1,500ft turning into a 25 minute 3,000ft climb followed by an "expedited" descent back to Earth to avoid the showers. So good to be back aloft again since January.

Here’s a short (4:10) video of some glider tows I made on Sunday. I decided to try to capture more of my flying this year, share it on YouTube and see where it takes me so any and all views and subs are much appreciated! youtu.be/2XkdswGn9VA #aviation #flying #towpilot #gliding #pilotlife

Ein schneebedeckter Hang In der Nähe von Damüls in Vorarlberg aus einem Segelflugzeug heraus aufgenommen, am Bildrand ist die Flügelspitze zu sehen.
Saisonstart bei Traumwetter.
Fast zwei Stunden überm Ländle geflogen, da bekommt man den Kopf frei. Und die gefiederten Freunde waren auch mit dabei. #gliding

So my glider lovers..,
Does anybody have any idea how they obtained such an epic shot?
Were they doing an outside loop that close to the ridge?

A glider cockpit in flight, looking towards the ground
I sometimes think the nicest part of any great flying day is actually when I get back home, to the calm and comfort of my desk, and can reflect properly on the aerial adventures had.

A yellow tug plane on the tarmac, with the hint of a glider wingtip at the bottom of the photograph
Flight one done (after 3 weeks in the ground). Might go for another... #aviation #flight #gliding

My cousin Tina’s husband used to take me gliding. I loved the sound and feel of the tow line releasing, the silence, followed by pitching and rolling near the clouds. I remember a woman in a body cast getting a tow up to the sky.

First flight of 2026, a 20 minute float above the city of York, admiring the snow across the moorlands.
(Reposting this with a better quality image, now I'm home!)

A glider on the runway in the low winter sun
Amazed to report that it is not *quite* as bitterly cold as expected... Clear skies and zero wind today.

Four gliders on the runway waiting to launch. Clear blue sky, strong wind.
Fab day today albeit challenging conditions for the first flights of 2026 - very cold, strong crosswind, gusty, strong wind gradient. Lots of learning happening!

Today I learnt there is a gliding board game!
(*I admit the sheer contrast between something as slow and quiet as a discrete board game, versus the fluid reality of gliding, is intriguing enough that I want to try it!)

A picture taken from the back seat of a K-21 glider showing the back of my head and the instrument panel of the rear cockpit. In a 45 degree bank turn to the right with countryside below and blue sky with cumulus clouds.
(Not my photo but used with permission). I’m in the front seat flying the glider. #Gliding with #MidlandGlidingClub over #LongMynd in #Shropshire. In a thermal climbing at approximately 900 feet per minute, which is pretty good in the UK without an engine. 14th July 2025
