Aug 23 - Since my accident one and a half year ago, I've had this blockade while flying. So my goal at this safety training is to get back my performance as before. That means I've trained a lot of spirals (that are fast circles). If you fly them really fast you get a sink about 17 meters per second.

Aug 24 - On the last flight I've thrown the reserve. That's a good exercise to learn what happens and how to react.

Aug 25 - After throwing the reserve we landed in the lake. Everything went wet and need to dry now.
