Glidare
Glidare is a term used in technical vocabularies to denote gliding, the act of moving smoothly through a medium with little or no propulsion. It describes unpowered or minimally powered flight, where aerodynamic lift carries forward motion and energy is conserved rather than generated by propulsion.
In aviation and aerodynamics, gliding relies on wings or lifting surfaces to generate lift while the vehicle
Applications of gliding span several fields. In aviation, sailplanes and other gliders exploit rising air—thermals, ridge
