A proposito di questo titolo

Episode 10 of Aviation-Quest.cc – Stories from Above continues the deep dive into gliding — focusing on one of its most fascinating aspects: the landing. How can you touch down safely when a go-around simply isn’t an option? Former glider pilot and host Jürgen Reis shares how training, energy awareness, and constant planning create multiple safe landing options, even without power. Together with A320 first officer Stefan Lorenz, he contrasts glider approaches with those of modern airliners, revealing surprising overlaps and crucial differences. Jürgen also offers hands-on advice for flight sim enthusiasts on how to configure simulators like FSX or Microsoft Flight Simulator for a realistic glider setup — including the art of coordinated flight with the yaw string and mastering the side-slip. This episode celebrates the discipline and finesse behind every silent landing — where judgment, skill, and calm decision-making define true airmanship.
