Dick Johnson wrote one some time back, but I don't remember which issue. 
Sorry.  However, I believe he concluded that the distance at which the 
strobe was noticeable during the day was so relatively short that there 
was minimal benefit to the installation.

 Anyone remember/know what issue(s) that was in?  I'm researching collision 
 avoidance stuff (again, still . . gr) 
 
 (Boy, do I wish there was a good INDEX to Soaring!  I've got every copy 
 since 1966 and a few going back to 1937, making a fantastic resource that's 
 darn near unusuable because there are no complete indices (and the few that 
 were printed back in the seventies and eighties are poorly organized . . .))
