The balance:
5x > 1000 km (1x FAI), 3x > 1100 km and 1x > 1200 km.
The speeds were accordingly high ( up to146 km/h)
The season has now really taken off. With almost 50 guests Bitterwasser is very well visited already at the beginning.
The participants of "Flying with the Youngsters" already got their money's worth on the second day and were all able to record flights over 1000 km.
A stay at the Bitterwasser Lodge is usually beyond the financial means of young pilots. At the same time, the next generation is the key to the future of our wonderful sport—and of the lodge as well. That is why supporting young pilots is a core part of the Bitterwasser Flying Center’s mission.
Early October is the ideal time to prepare the runways for flight operations. You can land at the Bitterwasser Flying Lodge in every which direction—depending on how you look at it, on 8 runways (plus one emergency runway), each in two directions. Jeremias carefully levels the landing area over the course of several weeks.
