Flight #76

4 June 2023 • Dockweiler • Hang 0 - Student

Two days earlier, I passed my USHPA Hang I written test. My sixth day of flying at Dockweiler. I have about 60 flights at the beach now. Day went really well. Rented the glider and didn't have any instruction. Started with low 6MPH winds but it picked up to around 8MPH with 10MPH gusts. Successfully flew hands-off at trim again. My launches are improving. I flew past the windsock at one point. I probably had about 12 launches today and 9 of them were perfect. Only about 3 were kind of sloppy. Even the one rather laconic instructor complimented one of my flights.
