Arse and eyes??

Even 40 years of soaring thousands of hours, I find most varios, and especially
the Glide S, are superior to my arse and eyes. Not in every situation, but
overall, you'd want the Glide S on the panel instead of me in the back seat.


My experience is the opposite. The vario is there to confirm and quantify what I have already felt.
