The last ones are now leaving Bitterwasser

Now the time has come. The Joschko's also end their Namiba stay. Now it will be very, very empty. But the next season will come for sure.

In Bitterwasser it is as green as seldom. Who of the glider pilots can imagine that glider operation on the 09 would no longer be possible because of too high grass. On the picture Christa is standing on the 11 (Hoskia) in knee-high grass.

Soon Jeremias and his team will cut and collect the grass as fodder for the animals in worse times.

It was only a small season 2020/21 but it was very nice. There has already been a blog entry about the results.

The 2021/22 season is already casting its shadow. The booking requests are enormous. Therefore book as soon as possible at hog@bitterwasser.com

See you in the new season!

The first guests can arrive!

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.

Leveling the Landing Area

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.
