About taking a few hours on glider, then try it the old fashioned way, pick a point on the ground and cut off or idle and see if you make it, and at 500 feet or so light up and climb up to try again, my point practice, practice, practice

This Winds Planning / Glide Ratio is something we are working on for a future update. We are currently improving our Winds data to have more detail and higher resolution points. This will help us develop a Winds Calculated Route feature as well as offer us better data for developing a Glide Perimeter feature. Stay tuned, it's definately moved up the list.
