I concur with the other postings for windy day practice. It is a
great reflex builder. You may also consider some training flight with an instructor doing "un-assisted" takeoffs (no wing runner). It seems that this skill is no longer part of the typical training syllabus, but is a good way to get used to the control inputs required to steer the glider (feet/ rudder) and simultaneously pick up the wing dragging on the ground with out over controlling. When you can complete this task in a smooth coordinated manner, you should have no problems dealing with a wing drop. Hang in there! Wings drop The causes of a wing drop are many and most are out of your control. Your focus should be on early recognition of the problem and a timely and appropriate corrective action. Todd |
