So, my "aeronautic journey" started a year or so ago and I barely made any progress, I want to build an aircraft but I'm stuck on a semi-desert island and I don't have the resources to successfully continue, but recently I've been to lake Garda and the local flying community guys told me that back in the 30s they used primary gliders to teach guys how to fly, I think it's a brilliant idea but I really can't think of a way to launch it, I mean even if I build one, how can I successfully launch it without another plane, it's possible to build a giant slingshot or I'm going insane?
