In this video I will take you on a cross-country flight through the breathtaking scenery of the Alps. After flying over mountain passes, glaciers and the main ridge, I found myself terrible low. I switched to survival mode, fighting for every meter of altitude, but still hopeful to reach a nearby airfield.

Learn in this video about local wind systems late in the day and watch an exciting outlanding on a very short paddock.

Welcome on board and enjoy!

Please note that I am a learning glider pilot, sharing with you my experiences and the magic of soaring, including my mistakes and goodtakes, aiming to make this sport better and safer together.
