wrote: I'm surprised it has not been mentioned here yet. Excellent books exist on "what, why, how and when" to do the things needed to fly a glider, step-by-step. Read the "lesson for the day", discuss it, then go fly it with an Instructor, then ask for explanations about what actually happened. Being proactive requires knowlege. "Gliding" by Piggott, "Flying Sailplanes" by Reichmann, and "Glider Basics" by Knauff are such books. Buy them all if you can. Cheer up-there is a "learning plateau" period from time to time, which usually occurs just before the "breakthrough". Best to read 'Beginning Gliding' by Derek Piggott before tackling 'Gliding'. The latter is more use as you approach solo standard. -- martin@ : Martin Gregorie gregorie : Harlow, UK demon : co : Zappa fan & glider pilot uk :
