4:1  is the sink ratio of a boat anchor !!  -:)

Low flying in a STOL aircraft is a risky business if no field or river banks close by .... -:)

I think the glide ratio is somewhere between 4:1 and 3:1.

John,
What do you figure the glide ratio is on the 701. Assuming NO wind, no downdrafts?

Wow!!!  altitude is your friend in any CH7xx ...no doubt.  900'/min  that's a sink rate isn't it...-:)
