Description

The Thermal Flight Bible

Burkhard Martens' Thermal Flying contains everything you ever wanted to know about thermal flying. In fact, it will be the ideal companion for pilots who want a quick introduction, as well as those who prefer an in-depth study of the subject.

The author Burkhard Martens, through his experience, offers didactic explanations. They cover the formation, nature and structure of thermals. The book also deals with ascendances, windward and leeward thermals, trigger points and clouds to be exploited to the full.

Throughout the book, you'll find tips and flying strategies from the author and experts such as Bruce Goldsmith.

Numerous photos and illustrations in real-life situations make comprehensible what, on reading the extensive text alone, would be less so. They make it easier for the reader to think, and provide information that can be assimilated immediately.
