"The idea is to fly in air that's going up." Wow - that's where I've gone wrong for the last 50 years. Thanks Mr. Borgelt for that invaluable piece of advise. rgds Date: Mon, 18 Mar 2013 08:25:08 +1000 To: aus-soaring@lists.internode.on.net From: mborg...@borgeltinstruments.com Subject: Re: [Aus-soaring] Intermediate/short term goals
Mark, The idea is to fly in air that's going up. You should not be hearing the sink sound much. If you are it is time to go somewhere else and be in cruise mode while doing this when you won't hear the sink sound.

It is extremely important when trying to center weak and broken thermals which is why I like a vario with a sink sound as it provides full information on the bad air as well as the good air while doing this. And on that note, I'd like to congratulate you for the B50, which, as installed in AUGC's H205 Club Libelle, had the most inspiringly depressing sink sound I've ever had the misfortune to hear. Excellent work, well done :-) - mark _______________________________________________ Aus-soaring mailing list Aus-soaring@lists.internode.on.net To check or change subscription details, visit: http://lists.internode.on.net/mailman/listinfo/aus-soaring Borgelt Instruments - design & manufacture of quality soaring instrumentation since 1978 www.borgeltinstruments.com tel: 07 4635 5784 overseas: int+61-7-4635 5784 mob: 042835 5784 : int+61-42835 5784 P O Box 4607, Toowoomba East, QLD 4350, Australia _______________________________________________ Aus-soaring mailing list Aus-soaring@lists.internode.on.net To check or change subscription details, visit: http://lists.internode.on.net/mailman/listinfo/aus-soaring
