Thank you very much. That spreadsheet is now in my POH.

Attached is the spread sheet that was one I originally used
for determining the best way to accomplish a cross country race
turn over a pylon, The formulae are from "Aeronautics for Naval
Aviators", a very useful reference. It does calcs for bank
angles over 60 degrees. I included time and distance numbers
for various speeds and bank angles to determine the best
configuration for an efficient turn. I added some calculations
for considering a power out descending turn back to the
airport. I have still been unable to find performance formulae
for descending turns but then I haven't tried very hard.
