In my most recent posting, I wrote:
"...a glider is always going down, or rather gliding down - down relative to the air mass through which it moves". The exception is of course if using the mass inertia of the glider for a short-duration movement up through the air. This is when the in-the-direction-of-the-centerline forward force on the wing may exceed the opposite-direction wing drag component, and the cross tie bar comes under tension, not compression.

Svein
