Opps -- asked a question that I could have checked on myself.

looks like a 60 degree bank and 60 MPH would result in a turn diameter
a bit under 300 feet (no wind etc)


I'll bet it'd be a whole lot wider than that in the Deb at 60 while
losing a *lot* of altitude. At 60 degrees it stalls at just a bit
under 120 MPH in a coordinated turn.:-))
