Christmas in Bitterwasser – at 33°C and glorious sunshine
In Europe Christmas is usually associated with cold temperatures, early sunsets and, in the best case scenario, snow. In Bitterwasser, the world looks very different.
Gliding visionary Uys Jonker visits Bitterwasser
During his stay, Uys, together with Katrin Senne - world champion and sales manager at Jonker Sailplanes - will test the latest flagship from their production: the JS5 Rey, a glider that is intended to set new standards in the open class. In a presentation, Uys provides exciting insights into Jonker Sailplanes' current projects and talks about the challenges involved in the development, production and certification of modern gliders.
His passion for gliding is not only evident on stage: Uys is also available for discussions outside of the official program - even in the pool, he is not above discussing technical issues and clarifying questions.
We are pleased to welcome Uys and Katrin as guests here in Bitterwasser!
