Save it to Your local HDD, that's how it worked for me.

I finally got it to download. The connection was slow for the first few
tries but it finally downloaded in a little over an hour.

Thanks, Janusz.

That was a funny video but it addresses insurance and not winch launch
directly. It doesn't actually show much about winch launch.

I know, but it's still funny :-)

Re. winch launching (or failure) video: What about the one with the
DG-505 or similar that goes into a spin after turning from a failed
winch launch? (might not be exactly what is needed either, but you never
know, it certainly is educational)

Bill,
I have some footage that I cut together from our club launching a ski
equiped L-13 off a frozen lake. I'm dial-up so there is no way I'm
going to send it via the web. How can I get a DVD copy to you? Kevin

Spinning in has nothing to do with how the glider was launched. It has a
lot to do with poor airmanship - which is the subject of other
presentations.

I like the youth and energy of the video. It says a lot about how to get
young people involved. I think winch launch is the big secret.

I sent you a private e-mail with my address.

This is a winch launch of a Janus CE at Hoogeveen, the Netherlands. The
altimeter is metric, the achieved altitude is almost 500m. The vid is
shot with a digital photocamera and late in the evening, so the quality
is not superb, but perhaps you can use it, it features a nice sunset
anyway :-) Made by Peter Millenaar.

I'm starting to put together my presentation on winch launch for the SSA
convention in February and I need short video clips. Anything to do with
winch launch will do but those that tell a story about winch launch
operations will be especially appreciated.

Thanks.
