It certainly may be. The people that know way more about this than you or me
have never claimed that there would be a gentle gradual over-all even
warming of the earth. They say "Unpredictable.. wildly varying.. droughts,
flooding, etc. Some things you can't dumb it down and have it still work.
The world is a complex place.

George is right.
Global warming/cooling is a climate issue.
Flying Kolb's is, among other things, a weather issue. Very different.
So, since climate isn't involved with flying Kolb's, it's off-topic on this
forum. ;-)

John just called on the radio, he is 50 miles East, and closing fast. He
has a tail wind for a change.

I think he may want to sit a spell. Must have gotten at least two years
flying time in that trip.
For the rest of us, here's a question: in your airplane (Kolb indeed)
if you get a quick uplift thermal,
how does your attitude end up at the top of the puff? Nose high?
level? nose down?
To be honest I'm not sure which way mine reacts but I do remember having
to jockey the stick around a bit
to stay within a reasonable airspeed.
John must have been churning a few tubs of butter during some of his
trip.

Bob,
I am not aware that my Firestar does anything other than stay in the
same attitude. When I was first learning to fly mine, I came over a
ridge that was experiencing "upslope winds". I was holding 600 feet
above the rim to give myself some maneuvering room. I went from 600 feet
to more than 1500 feet in less time that it takes to write this. The
planes attitude was the same, but my shorts never were again.
Here are some pics of John's arrival.

The Wright Brothers invented and flew the first powered and piloted airplane. The
first manned flight in history: December 17, 1903. At 10:35 a.m.
Orville Wright takes off into a 27 mph wind. The distance covered was 120 feet
time aloft was 12 seconds.

The Voyager was piloted by Dick Rutan and Jeane Yeager. The flight took place between
December 14th and December 23rd 1986. The first non-stop, non-refueled
around the world flight in history took 9 days 3 minutes and 44 seconds.
