What is a Slope airfoil vs a Thermal Airfoil?

0

A. Slope airfoils are designed to fly on ridges or areas at the top of hills where it’s windy. A thermal airfoil is designed for planes that fly around flatter land (with less wind) using updrafts of heated air to stay aloft much like the eagles and vultures.
