Someone on this list surely knows better than I, so please speak up, 
but I do believe that a standard rate turn will result in a greater 
loss of altitude per degree of turn than a steeper bank turn.  For 
example, in my Yak or CJ-6, the most effective bank angle for a power 
out turn back is 45 degrees of bank....

Anyone?
