SAILPLANE TYPE (SAILPLANE)
The Sailplane Type menu is similar to the Acro mode, but has more advanced
features geared toward sailplane pilots. This menu is set up to support both
powered and unpowered sailplanes. Unlike pilots flying conventional airplanes,
it is common for sailplane pilots to use the throttle stick to manage speed
on a sailplane with flaps, ailerons and spoilers; the throttle stick is called the
Spoiler stick in the Sailplane-specific menus.
