Book - Peak Soaring (English)

Art: 295088

Book - Peak Soaring (English) written by Benjamin Bachmaier.

How do thermals and wind systems form in the mountains? Which tactics reliably lead to the best updrafts? How can risks be minimized through targeted preparation and technique?
"Peak Soaring" takes the knowledge and fascination of alpine soaring to a new level. Author and record-breaking pilot Benjamin Bachmaier, with experience from long-distance flights on three continents, combines sound theory with practical examples.
Detailed illustrations, impressive photos, and real-life flight scenarios make this book an indispensable companion for anyone who wants to learn or perfect their mountain soaring skills.
In addition to tactical and meteorological fundamentals, the book features exciting narratives that make high-altitude soaring tangible. Bachmaier's distinctive style and in-depth knowledge make "Peak Soaring" the new standard work for alpine soaring.
With a foreword by Klaus Ohlmann and guest contributions from Mathias Schunk and other renowned pilots.

An essential part of any gliding library.
