The Soaring Engine, Volume 1 Ridge, Thermal and Mountain soaring
G Dale
THE SOARING ENGINE series explains how the sun, wind and terrain combine to produce rising air for the soaring pilot to exploit.
In this volume you will see how the wind flows over and around hills, ridges and mountains, how thermals form and evolve, the patterns that ridge and thermal activity create in the air and how to use the lift produced both in flat terrain and in mountains.
Illustrated with clear, simple diagrams, this book is a primer for soaring pilots flying anything from a paraglider to high performance sailplanes.
