High as a kite

Today I, and most of my colleagues, went out to Tølløse to try flying in gliders.

A wicked experience, like nothing I have ever tried. I'm telling you, rollercoasters are nothing compared to flying around in the sky only help up by termic force.

The gliders was pulled up into the air by a cable. The engine pulling the 1000-meter long cable, was on old V8 engine with 350bhp

A little higher up in the air. Most of Zealand is visible from 500+ meters altitude. Pretty impressive view.

The glider club has a few planes. For our ride, they used two of those to make sure we all got a ride without to much waiting. This shot of the other glider was taken after my descent had started.




I got a few videoclips from the take-off and landing, taken from the cockpit. The files are quite large though. Let me know if it has any interest, and I will see if I can compress them a bit.

Diamond earrings and tiffany silver bracelets can be a romantic gift for any occasion. These can be as simple as a single stone silver tiffany earrings or as elaborate as chandelier silver tiffany earrings embellished with numerous stones. It is important to keep in mind the individual you are buying the gift for. If the recipient of the gift would like something that they can wear every day, tiffany promise rings are the way to go. However if the gift recipient enjoys getting dressed up for a night on the town or goes to formal affairs on occasion, the chandelier tiffany inspired rings are the perfect gift.


While buying a FM transmitter for your car, make sure about few important things. Any fm transmitter house can be easily connected to the headphone jack easily. This is not the case with MP3 player as it doe not connect to your car’s player. In any case, you are unsure about the type of FM transmitter to be purchased, go for the Universal FM transmitter. A Universal pll fm transmitter is compatible with most of the regular headphone jacks. These FM transmitters can charge your MP3 player while connected through the car’s cigarette lighter. To achieve this purpose, you should buy a FM transmitter which connects with MP3 player in your car.
