Virtual Flight
Very nice hang gliding video out of Germany. Note: the string to the right of the control bar you see the pilot fiddle with is the “VG,” or variable geometry control. It essentially makes the wing stiffer and more efficient, with the trade off being less easily controllable. If you’re flying cross country, you’ll go “full VG” when on glide between thermals.
