Are you sure you're looking for the right author? That sounds more
like a Paul MacCready topic.

Thanks, Bob K.
Bill,

Just got back from a road trip.

Possibles...both long & skimmed. FWIW, I seem to remember Bruce
Carmichael *referencing* 'a MacReady sink-rate-positing' in an older
"Soaring" magazine, but I couldn't find it either.

Dec. 1961; "Improving Thermal Soaring Flight Techniques" by Dr. Paul B.
MacReady, Jr.

June 1976; "Developments in Ultralight Gliding" by Paul B. MacReady, Jr.

Regards,
Bob W.
