I'm curious what others are using for inter-thermal cruise speeds for
modern 15m (and 18m I guess) gliders like the Ventus 2bx, Ventus 2cx, ASW-27, ASG-29, Diana 2, etc (add models as necessary). Here in the U.S. we have been moving toward cruise speeds much lower than would normally be dictated by using straight McReady settings, but how low is too low? I've also been flying a V2bx & V2cxt in Condor a lot, and cruise speeds there are all over the map, from 90kt to 125kt (fully ballasted) in the same race/weather conditions, with varying results. Any thoughts? TIA, Frank (TA) |
