Finally I upgradet from my beerplaine(see previous photo)!
I now get to rent an ASW15 from a good friend, sponsor and instructor.
It's not my babe but I get to fly her all the time! :D (She is mine, like - on the side :wink: )
The photo is taken from my second landout this season. The field was nice and I was accompanied by some curious sheeps.
The farmer wasn't angry either. He actually thought my situation was sort of funny.
He took a few photos and the next day I got a call from the newspaper. Appearently the farmer gave them a good story.
No bother though as he didn't claim any landingfee. :)

I see that you fly in Switzerland, so I have a question -
I have a vacation planned on 11 .. 18.02.2012 at Zermatt valley. Unfortunately I can't ride a ski-bike there :(
So i have free one week - is there somewhere in that time, possibility flying as ballast in two-seater glider? (of course, for a fee)
I have some experience from many years of flying on wooden gliders in flat terrain :wink:
Thx for info
Regards
Andrzej

Hello,

check here: http://www.sfgo.ch/

it is the nearest from zermatt, they can fly all the year, unless there is snow on the ground.

Yes, the swiss club is very international already - and of course a lot of competition pilots...

Not my glider but my dads that he flew in competitions. A "one off" Nimbus 2cs. I spent many hours polishing those wings. :D
