My research indicates that this is not possible. The wake sinks at a rate between 150 and 500 feet per minute (roughly). Thus, it would always be well below the airplane by the time it closes its own circle, unless the airplane is also descending. I've seen reports of pilots descending in a 360-degree turn and running into their own wakes. If they can descend and encounter their own wake, then they cannot remain at the same altitude and encounter it. It cannot be in two places at once. You´re an idiot. Bertie |
