Flying efficiently is a complex art, but so important to understand if we’re to fly further and faster.
In this 70 minute Masterclass, Baptiste Lambert talks us through the route planning, forecasting and flying techniques that’s required to really make the most of every XC day. Baptiste uses his epic 350km triangle flown in France as the basis for his teaching points. As part of the class, Baptiste focuses on gliding, explaining the numbers and nuances of ‘speed to fly’ theory and how to apply it in both competition and cross country flying.
We then take a look at some of the key take-aways from Baptiste’s Masterclass.
