Let me first apoplogize for posting a first glider question. What the
heck, there's not much soaring weather out there to distract us this time of year. A Ventus A is up for sale at a very attractive price in the local club. I currently have about an hour on my brand new ticket. I think the plastic is still warm. Assuming I have the discipline to fly 20 - 30 hours in G102/G103 (the 103 was my trainer) what are the odds of surviving with a Ventus A and not much experience ? I am a conservative person by nature and doubt I'll do anything actively stupid. Passive stupidity is an entirely different matter. At the very least, I think the first few landings may be intimidating. I will have the luxury of about 4000' feet of grass or 5000' of pavement when landing. |
