 A canny pilot once advised me to “Get high, stay

high”, and whilst that provides a good chance of

making it home, it can result in a long, slow

flight

 XCSoar records your average climb rate at

different heights and can display this in a

“thermal profile” indicator at the top left of the

screen, which you can use to judge the optimal

height band to fly in (7.7)

◦ Config/Config/System/Gauges/FLARM, Other/Thermal

band=On (13.14)

 The Y axis indicates height, the X axis indicates

climb rate and the black arrow indicates your

current height within the band

 Warning: lift strength changes over time; since

ou are likely to spend most of the flight up

high, the lift strength information recorded for

low altitude may no longer be current!
