Hi all,  :)
I am Aleš Holoubek and I fly usually in Ji?ín aero-club at the Czech Republic. I became a happy owner of the beautiful  "15B" that I purchased from Bogdan last autumn.
I am fan of the all AS's machines.
I was trying to make my first flight with 15's on Sunday, unfortunately just before the takeoff, tow-plane pilot discovered a problem with "magneto" ignition system, so I have to wait until it is repaired. :-\
I found this web side very pleasant and usefull.
I wish to you all happy gliding season
Regards
Aleš

Hi Aleš,

that was bad luck with your tug, I hope you can fly your 15 soon.
It looks very nice!

I am a ASW15 beginner as well, I had my first flight last sunday.

I wish you many nice flights!

Hi Marcus,
thanks very much for your message. I finally did 3 flights  (100, 150, 180 km) and I am very enthused with this glider. As one of colleagues on the Segeflug  forum said, it is WUNDERSCHÖN glider,  I  have to say, it is Got's glider :-)))
I will try to add some pictures from the flights later on.
Best Regards
Aleš

Hi Ales,

yes it is a fine glider. I started in April with the 15 and had some nice flights up to 295km until now. No need to practice much, just sit in and fly  :D

Only "problem" so far is that it does a slight right turn when I take hands off the stick. So no pictures until now, I have still to practice taking photos or "filling a plastic bag" while flying straight. :D

BR
