The trial tests done by the Earl of Southington Bythe Bridge showed that a pair of 1 year old European Swallows could possibly do just that. Contradicting the tests done by the Baron von Heifer zu Oxen outside Starlingen the year before last. So your idea of a factor of 2 might be very close to the mark sir as long as the good Baron didn't use 6 month old swallows then the factor would of course increase to 4 :)

I am surprised Sir you did not include the work of that well know Arab pigeon breeder Mustafa Leak who proved that Southington was using the famous Bythe Bridge updraft to increase the rate of pigeon climb! :eek1: Baron von Heifer zu Oxen should always be discounted after he was caught shaving his female pigeons, covering them in pepper and sneezing all over them! Although this did improve their flapperbility ratio which is important in coconut terms. :)

Taking my factor of 4 and then dividing by 7, adding the number you first thought of :chin: should give you the answer to my question, whereas if you increase the sector times and consulting the Higgins scale (1785 version) :bow: you will find a very clear definition of your pigeons strata, this of course will not work on Africans born after 1892. :rolleyes:
