Sailplane Calc

Radio Controlled Soaring Digest was very kind to print an article I wrote that walks readers through the use of my comprehensive sailplane design spreadsheet — from entering data to interpreting results.

This thread is for discussing the article and spreadsheet.

We're pleased to announce the April 2008 issue of RC Soaring Digest is
now available for downloading from the RCSD web site
<http://www.rcsoaringdigest.com>. The issue highlights are now
available at <http://www.rcsoaringdigest.com/highlights.html>.

This issue has 54 pages and is 10.7 MB in size.

If you are using a dial-up connection and desire a smaller RCSD PDF,
consider downloading the highly compressed version of this issue
(about 3.5 MB) from the RCSoaringDigest Yahoo! groups Files section.
The image quality is reduced, but download time is significantly less.
You must be a member of the RCSoaringDigest Yahoo! group to download
these compressed PDFs.

If you're using a broad-band connection, you may want to download the
"original" high quality PDF of this issue (21.4 MB) from the RC
Soaring Digest web site <http://www.rcsoaringdigest.com/pdfs/Originals/>.

In the interests of bandwidth and server usage, we ask that you
download only ONE version of each monthly issue from the RC Soaring
Digest web site. That is, download either the "normal" size issue from
the main or highlights page link, or download the "full size" version
from <Originals> folder - not both.

Thanks for your continued readership!
