Malgré mon faible niveau d’anglais, je pense que tu fait une erreur. Cette poudre ne trouve pas les thermiques, elle les fabriquent !
Tu disperses une pincée en vol et la poudre réagit avec la vapeur d'eau quelle fait condenser libérant ainsi de l'énergie qui se transforme en thermique à volonté !
Assurément un best seller, merci papy Nova !
Today we present you “Tockner’s Incredible Thermal Powder“, the world’s first and only Thermal-Powder. It was developed by our team-pilot Hans Tockner, one of the world’s best XC pilots. Filed for patent, the unique component Monoaprilid allows the generation of thermals during the flight. So “Tockner’s Incredible Thermal Powder“ will keep you from bombing out and increases the average speed on XC flights, as you won’t loose time having to scratch about for hard to find thermals.
One summer day Hans, a studied engineer, was observing the thunderstorm pilots. In the Alps, these heroic pilots are flying to help farmers. When serious thunderstorms threaten the harvest, the thunderstorm pilots take off with small but rugged airplanes and dispense silver iodide, which – ideally – leads to rain instead of big hailstones. Hans evolved the idea for the thermal powder: if you can let it rain with silver iodide, it must be possible to generate thermals too…
In the course of a long experimental series Hans finally developed Monoaprilid. The ingredients are of course kept secret, but he explains the functional principle of the fully biodegradable components: Monoaprilid is capable of binding to even the smallest amounts of vapour in an instant. Thereby, tiny drops of water emerge. According to the principle of the conservation of energy, a phase change from gaseous to liquid state results in a release of thermal energy: your thermal lift!
As a matter of fact, all pilots who were wondering about seeing a little amount of steam when observing Tockner in weak or small thermals were right. They actually saw Tockner’s temporary thermal mist, which dissolves without any residues in a few minutes. Hans Tockner emphasizes that the right dosage is crucial, „if not it might lead to so called freak-thermals. Once my kids were playing the thermal powder and accidentally exposed our canary bird to an overdose. Poor Hansi was actually rocketed into the orbit and never seen again!“
