Another video by Knud Benedict: This movie reveals some practical insight into regions of course stable / unstable conditions under wind. And I dare to say you can get some insight into other stability types and analogies, too!

Another great education video by Knud Benedict (Germany): Practical experiments for getting useful data for planning.
