A polar calculation question for you number crunching enthusiastsout there
The best solution, I think, was to take Paul's "Remde_Polar_Cambridge_to_Reichmann_and_SeeYou.xls " spreadsheet and enter the E1 (Max Glide Ratio), V1 (Best Glide Speed) and V2 (speed at sink = -2m/s) directly off of Dick Johnson's test results (E1=45, V1=99km/h, V2=171km/h). The resulting graph fits the test data nicely, and I have my SeeYou polar coefficients.
