Using a "GLIDE footprint"
Eric,
Most soaring software that I have seen simply evaluates whether you will clear obstacles along the flight path from your current position to the selected destination. If the route is over Pikes Peak, it doesn't consider going around it. Is there any software that identifies and calculates the altitude require for the best route to a field?
