SUMAVA GLIDE 2016

Frymburk UL, Czech Republic,   12 August 2016 – 20 August 2016

EN- First Takeoffs

The sun was already beautifully shining when we woke up. Briefing was planned for 10 o'clock when all the competitors met on the veranda and our director Luděk gave them an AAT for two hours. After the briefing we set up the grid. You may find pictures of the grid in the gallery. 

The first takeoff was at 12:20 and it was the first ever aerotow from the Frymburk Airport. The brave and lucky pilot in the first aerotow was Daneš. All went well during takeoffs and the start line was opened at 13:32. In the moment all gliders are on the track. 

Video of the first ever aerotow and a flyover of the Frymburk Airport from the drone can be found on the following links.
