I would like to know the year of this, but I expect it is around 1972.
Hans Schmidt, Switzerland (SUI) at Oberstdorf Ski Flying 167 Meter
I used to wear the same hat and goggles, though I was only 11 years old.
Great to think that the Swiss were skiing so well then. Walter Steiner plus Hans Schmidt.
You can really see him loft the end of this flight (and backed out at the end).
He was 2 meter short of the World Record of the time, so the WR was 169 meters.
Flying is wonderful1
