August 31, 201213 yr Hi guys! Can you, please, suggest some airport (or area) from ORBX that is most suitable for soaring in glider plane. Thank you in advance.
September 12, 201213 yr Not done much gliding but I did notice that part of the scenery at Paraparaumu airfield (NZNI) has a number of static gliders and people next to one of the taxiways? Call up a tow plane and give it a go? Geoff Geoff Brown
September 13, 201213 yr Author mr lateagain, thank you very much for your recommendation, I will give it a try, thanks one more time sir.
September 14, 201213 yr Funnily enough, my gliding club has it's own ORBX addon... Cunderdin Airfield YCUN in Western Australia! Some of the best thermal soaring in the country B) Paired up with CumulusX I soar around here just like in real life. Mind you, if you're used to grand mountain ranges and thrilling ridge running, you might be a bit shocked by the wide open expanse of the Western Australian wheatbelt. Cheers, Derek Derek McAllan - Cloud Base - My Soaring Blog
September 14, 201213 yr Author Great Derek, I never considered Australia for soaring, cant wait to try your home town airport!
September 14, 201213 yr Omarama in NZSI...one of the best places in the world for gliding and the world gliding championship has been held there twice...another is Matamata in NZNI http://www.nzff.org
