Discussion
Which principle allows a glider pilot to find rising air?
Answer: A
Thermals are narrow columns of rising air, so the pilot circles tightly to remain within the core, climbing whenever the updraught exceeds the sink rate of the aircraft. Minimum sink speed is used while circling and a faster speed between thermals. The technique is a direct practical application of convective boundary layer structure.
