Post your glider screenshots

Gliding is fairly underrepresented in the sim and this forum, but there is indeed a very active gliding community in msfs.

Let’s share pictures of our soaring adventures in this thread.

Discus 2c in the French Alps (2024)

1 Like

First flight of my DG Aviation LS8-18 in MSFS 2024. Used a Towplane to lift off from Hilo (PHTO), hoping to reach the summit of Mauna Kea:

This was using live weather. Winds were only light ( ~ 10 knots) from the east. The initial climb was not too bad:

But I struggled to gain altitude:

This was as far as I could get:

So rather than land on the slopes of the volcano, turned around & headed back to Hilo:

Looking good to land:

As this was my first flight in this aircraft, I was quite pleased that I managed to stop on the centerline!:
