Welcome back to my channel! I had the honor to get invite to a glider flight with one of Germanys most professional glider pilots, Stefan Langer! In this video we want to show you, how you could benefit from glider flying at a young age, and if I as a 747 pilot still have the skills to fly these beautiful planes. Yes I did throw up, but once that was out the way, I regained control and had so much fun trying it out. I wanna say after a few more flights I would have felt confident enough to fly solo. Here are a few reasons why Stefan and I believe you should start out with glider flying if you are considering a career as an airline pilot: -You can solo at the age of 14 -The transition to powered airplanes is easy. -Glider flying is less expensive! -You learn a lot about energy management. -You'll become a part-time meteorologist! -VFR tracking skillsΒ  -You learn to fly coordinated AT ALL TIMES. -The flight experience is one of a kind! -Resilient to turbulence -Ways of taking off -Better maintenance understandingΒ  -Team effort -People you meetΒ  Thank you very much for your time! I hope you enjoy this video! Wishing you all the best!
