It has beens cold and snowy for a long time. Unfortunately, it was either sunny or snowy - there was mud and sun or snow and no biplane weather. Yesterday it started snowing again and this morning our air field (Gelnhausen, EDFG) looks like this:



Well, this definitely requires some biplane tracks!!



I placed a heater into to the air intake and waited for the oil temperature to reach 20°C. She did a nice start (ok, the last time we were flying is just 3 weeks ago :-) She looks ready to go!



The "Wasserkuppe" - a famous Moutain for all glider pilots is just 60KM away. A nice trip although the nearly 1000m MSL means an even lower temperature...



A quick photo to show that we were there...



And after 1 hour flying time the Bücker is also grinning :-)

Happy landings!
