Glider Air Brakes at Bridget Blackburn blog

Glider Air Brakes. Control forces vary between models, and dependent on airspeed. Airbrakes are indispensable on modern gliders for safety in cloud flying as well as for landing aid. Structural failures indicated the former one2,. Spoilers and lift dumpers are, again, interchangeable terms. Airbrakes can cause the glider’s speed to decay very rapidly, an effect which is particularly marked when approaching through a wind gradient. In the asw gliders the airbrakes are linked to the very effective wheel brake, and touching down with fully deployed airbrakes means that the. A modern glider has a very slippery fuselage, and it's unclear to me if airbrakes work less well at the higher speeds i want for a slip. Installing and adjusting airbrakes has often been a pain, now with these new electric driven airbrakes, no additional hardware is needed, just drop. The airbrakes are operated by the blue handled control on the left hand side of the cockpit. These are just speed brakes mounted on the upper wing surfaces, in general, about 1/2 to 2/3 the length of.
