Default Final glide

lol once again you just don't seem to be able to read what someone says without "reinterpreting" the words.

I DID NOT say that I perform the "perfect" final glide. I have never performed the perfect final glide but there are those who have. And they are carrying energy AND hitting the exact altitude they were aiming at arriving at.


I rarely did perfect final glide when I was flying contests; mostly, I flew too
slowly at the beginning of the glide, and too fast at the end it, trying to get
down. But it was fun trying.
