Gliding

Got tired of flying powered aircraft and went for a change of pace.

After completing the mission, I tried my own flight over Minden:

Hi SkyHawk00

Good shot and Gliding is a lot of fun as long as it is done in a glider and not something with four engines... ;D

If you are interested in my first glider flight, take a look at:

Cheers...Happy Landings...Doug

Looks like fun 8-)
Most people think that flying a plane is dangerous, except pilots because they know how easy it is.
Arguing with a pilot is like wrestling with a pig in the mud, after a while you begin to think the pig likes it.
