I think Dennis's note was a "Letter to the Editor" but I'm not sure.

I think the name you may be looking for is Dennis Gaiotti. The Soaring Archive is word searchable, especially with the correct terms, wildcards, and quotes.

Number of articles with "low altitude turns", but several are later. Hope you find it.

Bob "Bookshelf" Whelan may chime in with the item anytime, or not.

Nope (unless Soaring mis-printed his name)

Given the timing, any chance this was published in Tom Knauff's magazine of about the same time frame? I think there may be a few copies in the next room.

Got it, Soaring Safety Corner, February, 1985, pg41. "Some thoughts on death by sailplane" Dennis Galotti, one L.

Just have a talk with any experienced crop duster, they can fill you in on all the intricacies of low level turning.

There was a Dennis Galloti from the Portland, OR area. I flew with him a number of
times, and bought a self-rigging dolly and another fellow manutactured.
