The equation changes if you're using a winch for training but 1) US
clubs don't use winches, and 2) the Blanik was never the trainer of
choice for a winch operation.
1) not quite true: winching is regaining some popularity in the US and
there are currently around 35 winches in operation used mainly for
primary training.
2) not quite true: pretty much all L-13 I have seen in operation in
Europe were used primarily in winch operations with the Y-bridle.
