Flight #119

11 May 2024 • Dockweiler • Hang I - Beginner

My 31st day of flying at Dockweiler. Had around 10 flights. That puts me at about 300+ flights at the beach. That makes about 323+ foot launch flights in total. The winds were around 5mph to 6mph all day. My launches and landings were all great on the Falcon 170. Put on a control bar that was way too short and the sidewires were so tight, the crossbar wasn't touching the keel. This made the glider terribly stiff and unresponsive and a little scary to fly. Good learning experience though in understanding how important the correct sizes are.
