Episode description

Welcome to Episode #21 of The Thermal.

In this Episode of The Thermal, we celebrate the life of the legendary Hans-Werner Grosse. A glider pilot who set the bar for long distance flying. We speak to long-time friends who remember this remarkable man.

On gliding club confidential, we go to Colorado for an in-depth look at the Boulder Soaring Association, where the Rocky Mountains provide a stunning backdrop to flying in this part of the USA.

Further to the North-East…in New Hampshire, there’s a single glider wing  up in the mountains above the local glider port. We talk to a pilot who has tried to unravel the mystery.

That and a whole lot more on Episode #21 of The Thermal.
