Had my first glide, as a passenger, last March in Cape Town, in a "motor-glider". Unforgettable experience! I'll try to do it again!

I like speed, but the gliding experience was fantastic!

Love to! My experience is on K-6, K-7, K-8, K-13 and Discus. Love to get into thermal lift and climb - also love aerobatics and spinning. Most fun you can have with your clothes on!

I started out as a glider pilot. I love it!!! No engine noise. Just you and the sky and a few thermals. (Makes engine-out emergency practice a lot easier too!!)
