What has the worlds best glide ratio? Is it a bird or a glider? or something else?! Join us on a deep dive of things in this world that glide and how far they can glide.

Some birds such as the Albatross have enormous wings to help them glide further. But the wings on a plane are much much larger, but they are also heavier. So which will be able to glide further?

All the glide ratios mentioned are best case examples, and rely on still air, with no propulsion from an engine. The configuration of the wings might i.e. flaps or slats, or landing gear will change the glide ratio too.
