Hat tip to Rodney’s Aviation Ramblings blog for finding and posting this very amazing and cool video sponsored by Red Bull of two gliders doing formation flying over spectacular Austrian mountain scenery. In the video, skydiver Paul Steiner manages to climb from one glider to the other to touch its rudder – you have to watch the video to better understand what I mean and just how difficult the stunt actually was. In other words, its not something you see nor would you attempt on a regular basis!

Great article and great idea.
Note for Matthew: for some reason the social network links give the wrong link to the video. Happens on other articles too, I've noticed.
There was a glitch with one of my plugins which I have fixed (hopefully) but it took a while. Sorry if comments have been a bit screwy but social media and comments should all be working fine now.
