Rules for JOINING IN with others in a thermal.


  • The glider already circling in the thermal has the right to continue circling.
  • Turn in the same direction as the other glider.
  • If there is only one other glider present you may offset your circle, but you must turn "in phase" with the other glider.
  • When there is more than one other wing, you MUST be concentric with the other wings.
  • Time the entry so as not to interfere with the other wing(s).
