Simon, but seing how the F16 is using a spin to sail downwind and the A is a uni rig, I would assume the F16 must sail a deeper course, if he or she is sailing higher than an A downwind then the F16 would be pinching. NO?
Depends....
If the wind is light; the A may sail "deep and slow" for good VMG when with the extra sail, the F16 can fly the kite; get a hull up and go 3 times as fast but cover 2.9 times as much distance and go faster in VMG terms....
