Soaring flight refers to a type of flight in which an aircraft, such as a glider or a hawk, is able to maintain altitude or gain altitude without the use of an engine. This is typically done by utilizing thermals, updrafts, and other natural rising currents of air. Soaring flight can be a highly efficient and sustainable form of flight, as the aircraft is able to harness the energy of the natural environment to maintain its altitude or gain altitude, rather than relying on an engine to provide thrust.
