A palm tree with a diploma. A rainy season in January like the last time 25 years ago. This is the result of the small Bitterwasser season 2020/2021, but no one regretted to have been there. In a flying season that will hopefully remain unique. Only the Joschko's are left. The rest flew back home on Sunday, safe and sound. Optimistically we look ahead. The bookings for the next season are already in full swing. Running!
I am off then!

Better to be landed.

Not too many nations, but we had a lot of fun.

The Bitterwasser Flying Lodge was the main sponsor of the Junior World Gliding Championships, where from August 2 to 17, 2026, around 80 pilots from 22 nations competed for the titles in the Standard and Club classes. The grand prize for the JWGC winners was a one-week stay at the lodge, including travel and an airplane.
Largely unnoticed by the public, the 5th Red Bull Global Aerial Performance Camp 2026 took place in Bitterwasser, Namibia, from April 21, 2026, to April 30, 2026.
A few videos and pictures on this page offer a glimpse of the athletes and their performances.
