[RCSE] MPEG quality

Some time back someone posted an URL to a MPEG showing a midair between a F3J glider (?) and a human paraglider (both lived to see another day). What impressed me was the picture quality - usually MPEGs are jerky and have a lot of fuzziness built-in, but not this flick :-)! Real bad example was t

RE: [RCSE] RE: Inverted Dihedral

There has got to be more to it than just ground or surface effect. Swallows use significant anhedral for ANY non flapping glide, ESPECIALLY when circling in thermal lift or making a pass in front of a lifty slope. For them it is clearly 'best glide', and they always use it to some degree when not
