| Thank you, it is. For those who think that taking of in a glider is a calm sedate affair this may help. | |

Country:  | I rode as a passenger in one three times when I was in my late teens, and that's exactly how we took-off. What a rush! | |

Well, I am Mr. P-40... and Wild Bill is one of my alter-egos...
Strangely enough I watched that flick today for the umpteen-zillionth time while keeping an eye on my neices. I'm trying to get them interested in things with wings, but I don't think it's working...
Anyhoo, here's a bit of trivia. 'Wild Bill Kelso' had another name before the film was released. What was it?

Fade to Black... | Very Cool -
Don't know the trivia answer!
Nice shots glider - make sure Blackwolf isn't in the air with you though, he might get nervous!

| Good Luck to you, you will love it. That was a cable launch which certainly gets the adrenaline going. Lots of places do airtows which is very different.
Can I ask where your going to fly from? | |

Country: | Im not entirely sure, Plymouth I think. Ill start off in a Grob Tutor, then go on to a Vigilant powered glider (engine gets switiched off during flight) then ill apply for my solo glider wings, by which time ill be able to go up in a cable launched glider.

| Les If you mean the height of the pilot no there isn't. Some are tighter than others obviously just like a car. The only one I had a problem with was the K21 in the photo. I had to remember to lower myself as we touched down or I would get a nasty crack on the head.
As for height as in altitude anything goes as long as the airspace is free. | |
