Flight #88

27 August 2023 • Dockweiler • Hang I - Beginner

My eighteenth day of flying at Dockweiler and my twelfth flights on the rental Falcon 2 195. Excellent day. Still had around 10 flights. That puts me at about 180+ flights at the beach. Very good day. Low wind of about 6mph to 7mph all day. I had a bit of crosswind and realized if I launched too slow, I got pushed to the side. But, if I kept pulled in and ran faster, the glider would start to respond to my inputs and fly straight. So, even though there was a light crosswind, I still managed to keep flying very straight all the time. I also did very well remembering my fundamentals of walk, jog, run and keeping eyes on target. I think I always managed to cross my ankles too.
