Jigsaw 20 Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 Recently I took the Dimona for a little mountain glide in the morning, flying from Tsuniah Lake to Scar Creek and beyond. It was great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoolP 24 Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 Nice ones. I'm still trying to evolve from gliding to actually soaring then. Most of the times I fail though. Seems like Joachim said, that Dimona isn't a good soarer at all, she can only slow down the impact but won't gain much altitude with the winds only.

J.Schweigler 203 Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 I never said, that the plane isn't able to soar, but the pilot will need much more skills that in a real glider. The Dimona is perfectly useable in good weather conditions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolP 24 Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 but the pilot will need much more skills that in a real glider. That's my weak spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Lürkens 30 Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 Try the Swiss version with the compensated beep vario, that helps a lot. Cheers, Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
