2017 (aerobatics) Gliding is a recreational activity and competitive air sport [1] in which pilots fly unpowered aircraft known as gliders or sailplanes using naturally occurring currents of rising air in the atmosphere to remain airborne. The word soaring is also used for the sport. [2]
28 de jul. de 2022 · Learn what a glider is, how it flies, and how it stays aloft without an engine. Explore different types of gliders, from paper airplanes to hang-gliders to sailplanes.
Gliders are principally used for the air sports of gliding, hang gliding and paragliding. However some spacecraft have been designed to descend as gliders and in the past military gliders have been used in warfare. Some simple and familiar types of glider are toys such as paper planes and balsa wood gliders.
Los diferentes tipos de Gliders varían en función de la presión que son capaces de soportar (y por lo tanto la profundidad máxima que son capaces de alcanzar). El modelo Slocum costero puede alcanzar los 200 metros de profundidad. El modelo Slocum profundo puede alcanzar los 1000 m de profundidad.
