See ya, Dave

Dave, What is your point here?

MacCready theory is not always applicable.
Consider:
- What are MacCready theory's assumptions, and when are these not valid?
- Why do good flights often beat expected MC speeds (after accounting
for start-finish altitude differential)?

Hopefully this will be covered in the V3 talk at the convention;
Tilo tells me by analyzing OLC piles of flight logs, the actual
behavior of top pilots shows this, thus better informs how the glider
should be optimized...

Hope this helps,
Best Regards, Dave
