Aborted landing due to BEAR!!!

This kind of thing happens in Canada, more often than you might think when flying into remote airstrips. Aircraft is Pipistrel Virus SW Abandoned airstrip is Salteaux, Alberta (just south of Slave Lake) Flying home from the Northwest Territories, we were going to stop at Saltaeux to start a campfire and cook lunch. We didn't end up landing, as I didn't feel like feeding the bears.

Would you fly in this wind?

www.pipistrel.ca I'm always asked "how does it handle in the wind?" when I land at a new airport. I'm waiting for a day where there is 35 knot crosswinds so I can show the answer. In the meantime, this will have to do. (35 knot wind 15° off the runway) Aircraft is a Pipistrel Virus SW

Whitecourt airport was shut down for over a month for resurfacing, so I had to find a new temporary runway... the neighbours hay field works perfectly, except I need to abort my landings once in a while for the deer and elk to get out of the way. www.pipistrel.ca

high speed Flyby Pipistrel Virus SW 100 Taildragger
Hi! Thanks for the video. Question... Are there any glider planes like this with room for a small clothing bag? Another question... This one is a 2 seater, but do you have to have 2 in order to fly it? Thanks.
what amount of crosswind can this plane handle?
It's too damn loud
Would love to see the electric double-seater in action. Is there any chance to put more solar panels on it so it could charge while flying?
Love the poster on the wall at 8:47!
I saw one of these land last week at Lantana airport. Even more beautiful than I thought. Now I want one even more.
Ah, I thought that you “urgently” needed to ice fish! 😂😎👍🏼👍🏼
I would love to what the surface winds are being in down between the 50 obstacles I noticed the tops of the trees are moving in different directions and updrafts and downdrafts can be a big factor during takeoff
🙌 *I learned to fly in Pipistrel Virus* love these planes 🙌
Self launch glider basically just a plane
Does anyone still care?
A great pity it isn't certified for flight in The UK.
This guy's use of the English language is excellent.
looks good except for the name. ugh why do they name it something that starts with pipi... just weird.
Probably one the best memories of this young man with this father. So nice to watch this!
Surely go the 40Ah and have a bunch of solar panels down the back of the fuse? 2 hours later you're fully recharged and crossing blue holes.
I see this Panthera in all black color. So aggresive:D
It’s a beautiful thing.
soooo... its an aeroplane.
...also, I understand the 4 place runs on automobile fuel vers navgas (please correct if I misunderstood); is there ability to combine fueled and electric?
My question pertains to the winglets: one model, they sweep upward another, they sweep downward. Why the difference? Is one better than the other? Both are beaitiful.
Love it
There are areas for improvement but generally a good design.
Definitely at the top of my "I have $120K to burn" list.
look the Fly Syntesis Texan
What kind of urgent, Pee?
This plane is absolutely beautiful. The design is gorgeous
Me informa para cuantas personas y q autononia tiene de vuelo gracias
Wow awesome
The Panthera fuel cell electric. It could happen.
👍👍👍
Is the gas version still available considering the limited stock of Rotax 503 engines?
I feel its probably cheaper to buy a plane and be done with it!
Yes, it would be cheaper to buy a regular ultralight or the like. But that's not what it's for. It's a self launching glider, it's not designed to run full time every time on engine power. Its like why do people buy sailboat (or sailplane) instead of a power boat(aircraft)? The sport is sailing not motoring
Can you let the propellor windmill to charge the battery back up? Sorry if this is a noob question
Bravo !!! Well Done I wish an RC model would be available, I understand a company makes a 3d printer and you can have the drawings....
Why no solar panels?
Very nice trailer
🙂👍👍👍
Very rare to have an engineer with a designer mindset. Nice results.
@Matthew Lee No! An engineer is creating the beauty of a device. A designer is just a slave of fashion. Fashion is usually trash. Fashion follows function (perhaps along the wrong path).
my favorite plane is the Valkyrie-X then the pipistrel-panthera and i don't have a 3rd because my to 3 is a hard list to get on
Very kool can you say moto glider?
If only someone could come up with a name for a glider with its own motor with propeller. Maybe a fairpane? Pairplane? Snairfane? I got nothing.
Motor glider
you ,must have had a very good insurance :D
Cirrus looks like very old concept in comparison with this beautifull aircraft. If I will have money for something like that, I will bought this one instead of Cirrus.
Beautiful!
You came back after 5 years?
@@randomdude9269 Yeah!!!!!
Wow, never thought I'd consider a Pipistrel as a backcountry plane... This video has me thinking!
Wonderful machine! I can t stop watching the videos. I wonder if you would install solar panels on wings maybe you could increase the power regeneration of batteries so the glider could get more autonomy. There is another video about a solar glider made by a couple in Italy and they did a great job. Is
Beautifull aircraft..
😆😆😆👏👏👏👏👏
I would leave it a single seater and add another 33 gallons of gas so i could fly anywhere.
Wow, really amazing. Where was this?
