Default S-turns on final

Sorry Sean,

if you think that slips are not effective in high performance ships, you should get some training.

Not that I think that they are much needed, but you should know how to comfortably perform them down to 30 ft off the ground.


In the lasr 35 years of flying all types of gliders, it never came to my mind to use S-turns. But I had to use slips some time.

Ventus cM
which slips nicely...
