From a glider cockpit high over Norwegian mountains, a line of cumulus ahead and the yaw string on the canopy. A glider seen head-on from behind on a green summer meadow, wings level and cumulus building over the hills. Gliders in their covers along the flightline at sunset, wings catching the last of the light. A two-seat glider on the field in low autumn sun, ready for the next launch.

From the cockpit

We don't just build them — we fly them

These apps don't replace your glide computer or your panel vario. They add a layer of awareness the panel can't always show — and a barometric vario as backup.

Reachability, always on screen

Today's glide computers are excellent — but they switch automatically between navigation and thermal screens, and in thermal mode the list of reachable landing fields disappears exactly when you are low and circling. On the wrist that crucial information is always there: which fields are estimated within glide under your current L/D, glide speed, wind and safety-margin settings, and the glide ratio each one needs.

A backup vario that can't go dark

An independent barometric variometer on your wrist, reading climb and sink straight from air pressure. If the panel instrument is busy, reconfigured, or simply on another page, the watch keeps showing the lift.

Proven in real soaring

Flown over Norwegian soaring country on real hardware — a Forerunner on the wrist beside the panel, not a mock-up in a simulator.
