Why the 60 degrees bank for minimum height loss?
Strictly you are correct, for minimum height loss you would have zero angle of
bank, but the you would be able to get around.
The 60 degree bank provides you with a smaller turn radius, it is a compromise
between height loss and getting the aircraft back around.
I will do the maths for it.
