The wing mounted GoPro shot is just amazing!

Really cool video, you where really lucky, we had less luck at ETNG/GKE, with almost no thermal lift...
Just make sure LBA does not see the video ;-)

Once in a year we come together with our gliding club to fly at sunrise.
The day starts at 5am so we had enough time to get all the planes ready, make coffee and bring the gliders to the start position around 1,2km away from the hangar.
