- This is a flight I have wanted to do for years, a brilliant experience at cloud-base around stunning mountains in southern Austria. I had some difficult patched which made it even more rewarding.

Just amazing dad!!
"I am more chuffed than I think I've ever been in my entire life." I love the understated delivery. Really a great flight! Bravo!
Sorry it was a bit over the top but I had only just landed
@@steveyoung-hanggliding Nothing to apologize for; you were properly chuffed (as well you should be). It was more the dead pan delivery that I loved. We could put subtitles in another language to the effect of, "This was probably my worst flying experience ever." and a non-English speaker would believe it based on your laconic delivery.
Beutiful flight and love the glider
Absolutely gold.
That wing is beautiful..
I thought I recognised the name !
So that's what you meant when you said you "did some hang gliding". Very impressive ! About as close to a raptor as a human's going to get Congratulations, stay safe and continue to Age Disgracefully.
All the best to you and your family.
A blast from the past.... Springhill / Galley Common Surgery
Really great to hear from you, I have retired about a year ago and due to Covid this is the first time I was able to fly in the Alps with my new glider. It was a long held ambition to do this flight and I was very chuffed.
Yes I intend to grow old disgracefully, there are a lot of years flying left in me yet.
Best regards

Well done Steve! That looked rough at times...
Fantastic flight ! Waaow !
Great video!!
Wow that was a great detailed flight.
Thanks. I like to explain what I’m doing. Glad you enjoyed it
Congratulation Bro , amazing fly
Well done. Ive only flown the area once (possibly a week before you arrived) but, not in good weather. I'm super stoke to see this flight (I wont hold it against you that it's on a hang glider :) ).
well done mate :).
Wow!
That's great.
Impressive
Amazing
Прекрасный полет! Респект
Nice videos!
noob question: what are the green, red and blue sectors at 0:27?
That’s a good question I should have explained. The international standards for a triangle flight is complicated so those coloured sectors tell me where I have to go to get the triangle flight. Triangles are the most difficult as for two legs you are not flying with the wind and one is into wind.
Hello Terrific flight. what apps are you using and how did you overlay the satellite?
Bloody Brilliant!!
What's the gliding ratio of this hang glider???
About 20:1
100 km in 5 hrs? Please confirm. Thanks
It was a difficult 100km in 3.5 hours.
@@steveyoung-hanggliding thanks I read your instruments wrong
What is this flying thing you're in?
Its a rigid Hang Glider called an AtosVR+, fantastic machine, but you can fly in much more basic gliders and a course costs as little as £1500 or 1800 euros. Look up Hang Gliding
@@steveyoung-hanggliding Would a Wills Wing Sport 3 do this?
@@garrykennedy5484 given good weather conditions yes.
