- i seem to recall seeing approx 500ft /min rate of descent at 75 knots best glide speed clean when i was doing my conversion training with prop at idle which equates to approx 15:1 in trigear G-OGAN

- Jerry and all, my Classic Mono, with feathering Airmaster prop and two up, sinks at close to a 1000' per min. with the engine off. When feathering is complete the sink-rate settles at 350' per min. a

- Hi Peter Please correct my math... sink rate of 350'/min @ 87kts gives a glide ration of 25:1... Something must be wrong with my calculations... That surely is as good as many gliders?? How's the wea
