Stretching the Final Glide

I was wondering when the comments were going to start bashing this
guy. One thing I was wondering about is that I didn't hear him
announcing his intentions over the radio. It seems like that would be
a good idea, considering that there were obviously other gliders
landing at the same time. Maybe he announced before the beginning of
the video? He did say something at one point, does anybody know what
he said?

And what the hell was making that rattling noise?

Having 100 gliders announcing "Nitra traffic I'm over the big manure
pile .756km out landing left pea patch Nitra" wouldn't work well.
At Bayreuth we were instructed ONLY to call 2km and BRIEFLY.

Gary ! Didn't you fly a LAK for a few years ? ;-)
