I seem to recall recent magazine (web?) articles where the idea that you can hit your own wake while actually holding altitude, should be downplayed nowadays. You _have_ to descend a little bit to do so, How tall is the wake? Good point. Still, using the calculator at: http://www.csgnetwork.com/aircraftturninfocalc.html It's going to take about 30 seconds to fly a 360 steep turn at 100kts. My wake _should_ descend about 150' during that time (300 fpm). I can't imagine a C172 wake being tall enough to stay in my way unless something else is ocurring (me descending, or the wake staying up). Would love to hear a decent explanation. Kev |
