VINTAGE vs MODERN. Flying a 1960s K6 in the Alps. Can It Compete?

VINTAGE vs MODERN Flying a 1960s K6 in the Alps. Can It Compete? On paper, the 1960s K6 shouldn’t stand a chance. It’s slower, built from wood, and lacks the glide performance of modern high-tech gliders. But on this blue day in the Alps — with weak thermals and tricky conditions — something unexpected happened. While high-performance gliders turned back, landed out, or struggled to stay airborne…the vintage K6 soared. Join me on this 5-hour, 214 km flight from Unterwössen across the breathtaking alpine landscape. We’ll pass over hidden lakes, navigate the legendary Steinerne Meer, and circle beneath the summit of the Hochkönig — where key decisions had to be made. This flight isn’t just about nostalgia. It’s about how simplicity, skill, and the right match between glider and weather can make all the difference. If you’re interested in: ✔️ Vintage gliders like the K6 ✔️ Soaring tactics in blue, weak conditions ✔️ Cross-country flying in the Alps ✔️ Glider performance comparisons ✔️ Real cockpit storytelling …you’re in the right place.
