Es geht los!

Die ersten Flugzeuge sind aus den Containern entkommen. Sie werden von dem Prüfer Bernd gründlich gecheckt und zum Fliegen frei gegeben.

Jetzt muss das Wetter passen. Im Moment ist es Nachts sehr kalt. Für Montag sind 6°C vorhergesagt. Das spricht nicht für Hammerwetter. Aber wir sind sicher, es kommt bald.

Good News

The SSN (Soaring Society of Namibia) website states that pilots holding a SPL license together with a valid LAPL medical may fly gliders with European registration in Namibia. Previously, the more complex Class 2 ICAO medical was required. The SSN point out that no definitive, valid statement can be made for neighbouring countries such as Botswana or South Africa.

For glider owners: Please check with your insurance company that this is in accordance with your insurance contract.
