Flight in Rotax powered SF-25 Motor Falke.

[Paul J]

Took myself down to my gliding club today and managed  flight in the club motor glider. My firdt flight of the year. Had to be done as the weather has been glorious though today the wind came back and turned the air a bit cold. But us at the club went flying regardless.

 

One of the two Euro Foxes we have.

the Falke about to emerge from its T hangar.

Its a quite well equipped cockpit and instrumentation.

Great!

Hope you are experienced and able to enjoy aviation by heart! Just hobby or also profession?

Happy modelling

...in spite of the 'inop' sticker on the artificial horizon... 😁

Mind you, I suppose it's fairly superfluous in a motor glider!

Just a hobby. It almost taken over the modelling time.

That happened to me, a hobby then a profession/obsession which took over my modelling time. 

 

I quit flying for a while but I realise now you can't leave it behind just like modelling. I'm going to get the medical back and renew the rating. Great pictures.
