II Abstract The XXXV Congress of the International Scientific and Technical Organisation for Gliding (OSTIV) were held as a virtual event from 19 July – 23 July, 2021, as the COVID-19 pandemic did not allow alignment of the Congress with a World Gliding Championship. OSTIV Congresses address all scientific and technical aspects of soaring flight. The Congress 2021 featured 36 presentations from 11 countries. These contributions describe new knowledge in the meteorological fields of atmospheric convection and atmospheric waves. The presentations on sailplane technologies comprise the areas of sailplane design and performance, aerodynamics, aeroelasticity, loads, and propulsion, whereas further contributions cover various aspects of training and safety. These Congress Proceedings lead the participants through the full- week program and make extended abstracts of the presentations accessible to the public. III Foreword Welcome to the virtual OSTIV Congress 2021. Every two years the Congress offers new information and latest research results in soaring and sailplane technology of scientists and engineers from all over the world. The meeting presents unique opportunities for scientific exchange and coordination of future activities. This Congress of the year 2020 was planned to be hosted by the Deutsche Aero Club, along with the 36th FAI World Gliding Championships, in Stendal, Germany. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic the 36th FAI World Gliding Championships were postponed to the year 2021, but the Championships has had to be cancelled. OSTIV is particularly thankful to Stendal’s WGC organizers, who did everything to overcome the difficulties due to COVID-19. In the end, OSTIV decided to organize the Congress as a virtual meeting. Our Call for Abstracts generated response by engineers and scientists from 11 countries worldwide. The received extended abstracts were reviewed and are presented in this proceedings booklet. We believe that an excellent program has been generated this way. For their efforts in recruiting high-quality contributions we acknowledge the members of the Program Committee: Zafer Aslan, Turkey Götz Bramesfeld, Canada Richard Carlson, USA Michael Greiner, Germany Mark Maughmer, USA Judah Milgram, USA Lukáš Popelka, Czech Republic Rolf Radespiel, Germany Gerard Robertson, New Zealand Preparing the Congress took many hours of work by the Organizing Team, consisting of Jennifer Kupke, Rolf Radespiel, Ursula Schamp. We are very thankful for their efforts. Our thanks also go to Till Lindner of Technische Universität Braunschweig for booklet editing. The OSTIV Congress is the perfect setting to bestow the OSTIV Prize 2021 and the OSTIV Best Student Paper Awards. We look forward to the Prize Ceremony and the Congress Closing Session for presenting the Award Winners. We wish all Congress participants an exciting and rewarding week.
