​@@skiddybipbop6844 Kinetic energy is the energy of a mass in motion, thermal energy is a huge subject (thermodyamics) but with reference to gliders, ( to simplify): After releasing the tow, there are 3 ways to get lift : ridge lift, what is caused by a wind blowing against a steep hill or cliff face; wave lift, which is riding winds that occassionally occur many miles away and have a wave form that can lift a glider thousand of feet; finaly "thermals" which are ascending circles of rising air caused by localised areas of ground being heated by the sun more than surrounding areas, eg a newly-ploughed area of dark earth, tarmac etc. Glider pilots aren't the only fliers who use thermals--eagles, buzzards, crows, seagulls, albarosses and many other birds use them to gain height: it sure beats flapping thier wings to gain height! Whan I was gliding I was always looking for birds thermalling, ie, circling in the column of warm rising air, and I'd head for them and join the circle, and tey to hit them with my wingtip. Animal lovers, don't get triggered, it never happens, they are far better fliers than man and machine, they FEEL where the maximum lift is on the tips of their feathers, and so indicate to we humans where lift is strongest.

No fuel to explode or ignite either in flight, or ina forced landing, also they have a much lower landing speed than the vast majority of engined aircraft.

That’s the dumbest fvcking thing I’ve ever heard in my life. I’ve never flown a glider... but I am _ACUTELY AWARE_ of my energy state in every aircraft I fly. This energy awareness allowed me to _FIND_ and _QUANTIFY_ lift without a vario in order to get very underpowered aircraft well above their absolute ceilings... and to complete a forced approach back to the runway at not much higher than rope break height (as described by the glider pilots who witnessed it) in a 7:1 glider. Most power planes don’t have a simple lever which changes the glide ratio from 40:1 to 4:1 (or whatever it is with the spoilers out) and change nothing else. They also aren’t as efficient and can’t cover up stupidity as demonstrated here. The issue here-which I’m not surprised such an in tune soaring pilot such as yourself missed-is *_TOO MUCH ENERGY!!_* It’s a good thing this fool had room to roll out... though he nearly destroyed a wingtip or main gear hopping over that taxiway. Good thing there wasn’t other aircraft or people or a fence or a ditch in his way. Do you want to know what good energy management is? Putting your aircraft down exactly where you want it, at the speed that you want it. That’s how they fly the Space Shuttle... and that’s how I fly my aircraft.

You brought a new meaning to the term “low approach.”

Such an unspeakably beautiful way to get around

ah yes...other than flying in 'wave' the use of 'ground effect' was always a Favorite of mine....it was always good to show a student just how far you could go in a real emergency if needed. Not a lot of comments here realise that this was a perfectly safe and stable approach in a 'ground effect' run....remember these craft have amazing glide ratios...not like a powered aircraft where if in trouble the old saying was' throw a brick out and if you stay above the brick...you're doin ok!' Really experienced pilots can do GE runs to about 40 feet at very high speed pull up, gain like 600 feet and do a short base a final..easily whilst dumping water at the same time.

Diving on speed from low altitude to use wing in ground effect was once demonstrated to me by an instructor, as a way of extending final glide slope if pilot dangerously drifts to far from airfield during circuit. I was caught out once, by changing wind direction and increase in wind speed, whilst conflicting with other gliders on circuit - I barely cleared the tops of trees . It's definitely not recommended practice to approach too low - unintentionally - but using wing in ground effect once got me out of that dodgy situation, in which I would have ran out of height and speed and stalled into the trees.
