Notice that the glider was being flown by an old fart. The ute driver was young bloke. Does this say something about gliding? I've long suspected the VW engineers have some glider pilots amongst them. The Golf has a high rated towing capacity.

Meh. I’ve spent hours sipping hot chocolate and watching aircraft arrive and depart on that runway. It’s very steep. You could roll a glider to the lip of that runway and push it over the edge and it would be able to take off.

Good drama and camera work though J
