Trim it forward then let go LOL. Cirrus is beautiful !!!. Has a strange quirk , in a full slip nose down the stabulator control goes away . Full forward and back with no response.

I'm restoring my 1970 cirrus! And by the way they mean when you are going very high speed. And you may have a really good trim system as well. that may be it.

how many hours in a plane is considered fairly young. like to me 50000km in a car is basically an infant to me.

Imagine the thermals on planet JUPITER and if there are lifeforms there that would essentially live in these

You were flying the glider so I'm very reluctant to say 'impossible' when you say the thermal was from the lake..... But I have always understood 'water does not generate thermals'. Where were you flying, and are thermals from maybe the lakeshore a regular feature of the area?
@niklaslofgren2889

The thermal(hot/moist air) generator in this case is the terrain on the left of the lake. When the thermal let go from the ground it sucks in enormous amount of air at ground level to replace the air which is going up. This movement of air is what you can spot on the lakes.

Water absolutely does have thermals off of it. Where do you think hurricanes come from? Rising moist air turns to cumulus clouds, then turn to cumulonimbus and eventually tropical storm then hurricane. And it all from hot water. Next time you watch the weather channel look at it like it's a giant convection.. because that's what it is. As a general rule: never cross large bodies of water because it's impossible to tell where the currents are causing warm and cool water to mix and create the thermals.

Yes it does. I sold the Cirrus this fall and now it's flying in north Italy.

He doesn't have instruments to fly without visual reference. Or ATC clearance. He needs both of those.
