Read Brigliadori as he describes extended glide. MC is based on a a model of climb and glide that does not apply directly much of the time, especially with higher performance gliders.
UH


I have and have read Brigliadori. It's still challenge to prove MC theory invalid, it has been attempted many times. MC theory applies under cloudstreet, there is optimum speed for current lift or sink.

BTW Brigliadori has nonsense in some parts of the book. I would take everything with at least a grain of salt.
