- Paraglider pilots planning routes or practicing maneuvers
- Worth noticing
- The page reports one IGC-checked glide ratio: 7.31 in the simulator, compared with 7.24 measured.
Field notes
The examples move between named Alpine locations and concrete flight tasks: a route from Brauneck toward Innsbruck, soaring near Garmisch, or a crowded landing approach. The page also invites pilots to request a custom flight by naming a launch site, route, and weather, and says they can attach an IGC track for reconstruction.
