Gliding question   Message List

Hi,
my name is Alberto and I'm from Italy.

Can someone explain me how "glide" works?
I'm having some problems understanding this part:
"If manouver 2 or 8 is selected, the aircraft must lose 1 altitude level every
other turn. If manouver 3 is selected, aicraft must lose 1 altitude levels every
turn..."

Probably for a native-tongue player these phrases are obvious, but for a
foreigner isn't so obvious... well, or me aren't ^_^

Is it possible to have also some playing examples?

Thanks,
Alberto

HI Gliding is for when you have no engine and so cant use power for flight hence you lose speed each turn and cannot do sharp turns, the more gentle you glide...
