Had my first glider flight at the weekend. Very professionally done by Lasham. Aerotowed in a K13 to 2500', then did a quick bit of stall training before a good old fly around. Flight was good although no thermals, and it looks like I'll need to get used to using a bit more footrest...erm...sorry, rudder.....
Seemed to be more yaw component in the steep turns than I'm used to in powered aircraft (that rudder thing again)..is this my imagination, or is this actually the case with gliders? Forgot to ask the instructor.
I'll be getting the most out of my free three months membership if all goes to plan!
