I’m in the midst of my H1 training and look forward to progressing to this level of fun! I always come back to your videos because of the video quality, commentary, and locations!
@JRudd thank you!! Sometimes it feels like that training will never end, but keep at it and you'll be flying high above those mountains before you know it!
I think I need to go Greifenburg again. The nice mountains of East-Tirol are imho the most beautiful in whole Austria. They also have the advertisment: East-Tirol - Your Mountain-Tirol. And I think that is justified… thanks for the video. Greetings form Kössen.
Was jumping out of my seat when you were white knukkeling from 11:30... absolutely screeeamen! Epic, epic, epic Last video's serenity in Scotland and this one in the ballistic Austrian Alps. So so privileged. "Lets get this next turn point" howling
Actually it makes the more rapid noise when there is a transition... so the stronger the transition (in speed of lift) the more rapid the noise. If I were to settle into a 10up for a long period, then the beeps would slow down a bit. I think. This speeding up of the beeps helps to centre in the strongest bit.
Amazing scenery! Your in-flight narration says more than your vario 😀 Also I’m impressed by your mature decision to cut the flight short given the circumstances. Good luck!
Thank Joseph - in all honesty that is the only time I have ever cut a flight short like that. But I really did feel unwell and spent 1.5 hours derigging with lots of sitting down!
There is something strangely addictive about the vario tone. Especially, when it starts beeping at a rapid frequency. The vario at 12:10 was off the scale 😂
The vario noise is a very subjective thing. 6030 users tend to hate the noise I have - they are used to much slower beeps. But I love it! Especially when I can make it sing like this...
10,000 A long time... Anoxia a bit, do you think ? Other than that an exciting spectacular flight, I'm happy watching you but will keep to lower key flying.
No, pretty sure no anoxia involved. I can tell when it starts to get hard to breathe. This was just the result of rough conditions, strong thermals and a lot of excitement!
I know you have an emergency chute but at 9,000 feet and the occasional violent thermos you experienced flying through the mountains, do you take pause while in flight and think about how fragile and vulnerable your airframe is (false sense of security)?
That's luvlea! I'd be intrested in seeing the trials & tribulations of your preperations and travel issues to these places and your accommodation arrangements also who picks you up if you don't make it to the finish?

Thanks Matz... this was my first time there and I can see why people like it so much!
Wow, amazing scenery and brilliant flying conditions! Thanks once again Darren!
You're welcome! Thanks for watching.

Yeah - a bit of a contrast there!
Absolutely epic, what a beautiful place, I have never heard a vario that literally sounds like it's buzzing, it sounded more than 8 up at times!

That vario was screaming. Awesome flight.
Not screaming... SINGING!
That thermal around 12:00 ... insane
That's exactly what I thought too!
8000 ft min 😂 looked epic do you think you might been slightly hypoxic as well mate
@@NickChittyFlying Unless I only stayed in it a second or two!
Amazing
Beautiful!Thank you for sharing, the Alps are just spectacular, always. Enjoy your flying visit there.
Thanks Felix... all done now and ready for the next adventure next week!

12:10 fire ;)
12:54 "Super scary" is so right. 😨

@briandavidson3149 oh yes! It's a regular thing to practice reaching for the parachute handle and making sure I know where it is and can grip it
That's luvlea! I'd be intrested in seeing the trials & tribulations of your preperations and travel issues to these places and your accommodation arrangements also who picks you up if you don't make it to the finish?
I'm setting off on a 5 week trip next week... maybe I'll do some of this stuff and see how it goes...
Man that climb out the back of lienz... Digiflys only sing like that when it's wild as. Awesome.
@@ecclesheat and I do love it when my digifly SINGS!
