All this discussion seems to have been started by my posts on June 3 and June 4. After having gone around a few times, maybe it is more clear where I was coming from. Does anyone have any problems with this table? IF so, can you clearly explain why?
Examples: G-load (lift / weight) at various bank angles and L/D ratios: L/D Infinite-- 0 deg 1.00 30 deg 1.15 45 deg 1.41 60 deg 2.00 L/D 10:1-- 0 deg .995 30 deg 1.15 45 deg 1.40 60 deg 1.97 L/D 5:1-- 0 deg .981 30 deg 1.13 45 deg 1.36 60 deg 1.87 L/D 2:1-- 0 deg .894 30 deg 1.00 45 deg 1.15 60 deg 1.41 L/D 1:1-- 0 deg .707 30 deg .756 45 deg .817 60 deg .894
