Mike,
In your original question,
Part b,
By "pointing" I presume you mean "trailing" ?
To me, in this case "pointing" could be the direction of the
forward end of the string.

and what is the expected differential (gain/loss) with say a

that determine climb rate.
This might b able to be worked out mathematically given the
airflows angle on the wing and fuselage drags differences
I suspect that are several aerodynamic factors would have to be
considered, especially given the the thermal core is dynamic.
A question for modern designers perhaps, especially when all
aviation design is a trade off

Perhaps the more important question is how to you tell if one
technique is better than another. What is a useful baseline?
Climbing better than the other gliders is the test but what if
everybody is using the same less than optimum technique?

When circling in a thermal, do you
a) keep the string centered
b) fly with it pointing to the outside of the turn
c) why?
Your technique may not be doing what you think it is.
