This morning I had my first flight in a small airplane/O'ride. It was amazing. For the first five minutes my mouth was open out of amazement.
I have been on an aircraft before, but this was so different. I had the front passenger seat and even got to try out the controls.
It was the best moment of my life, and I'm not exaggerating at all.I'm now absolutely sure I want a job as a pilot.
What should I expect for my first glider ride?
Less noise, more sky.
Congrats...
And if your Glider flight uses a winch to launch you'll love the climb!
In glider fights you have a waaay larger viewing angle: up, front, behind, left, right. Sometimes it gets hot because you are in thermals, so try and dress light. There is a high chance of seeing birds fly around you...
Oh and you are more open to G Forces ( you can feel them better >:D)
You will definitely enjoy your first Glider Flight as the sound of silence is beautiful in the air! :)
After several thousand hours of powered flight I'm still looking forward to my first glider flight one of these days.
This is pretty much what you'll experience with a glider.
All the joys and wonder of powered flight - all the noise = a much better experience!
