50th B-day aerobatic glider ride

Power pilot Randy had a ride in the Pitts aerobatic airplane with champion Mike Goulian and wanted to experience some aerobatics in a glider.  We did a spin, loop and some tight turns but it was more fun for Randy to fly the glider which he did beautifully.

See the Tule fog east of the Diablos completely covering the Ca Central Valley all the way to the Sierras!

He got the co-ordinated turns figured out right away.  Power pilots usually have a difficult time with the long wings and adverse yaw.

While the rest of the country is experiencing snow and cold we had a beautiful day at 60F!
