Congratulations Hackett, welcome to PPRUNE and the international fellowship of pilots.

After reading your account of events I have a couple comments to make:

  1. It was gratifying to read that during your training you were placed into a situation well beyond your limits to fully understand how much trouble you can get into for exceeding them. Such experiences are rare and should be well remembered.
  2. Its interesting to see a glider pilot struggle with PFLs. For the most part they're normally really good at them, its usually their engine and fuel management that need work.
