An awfully nice day to be flying with a zero Macready setting...
You actually use that?
Absolutely. The glider computer (I use Glide Navigator also) is usually
set to 4 to give me a safety margin to potential landout sites. The 302
is usually set to at least one, and on a good looking day in the
picture, at least 2 or 3, to encourage me to fly somewhere in the
proximity of the correct speed. I don't follow it slavishly.
