check out these two corrector designs, one a Ross 2 element corrector, the
other a Wynne 3 element corrector.  All BK7, but the surfaces are somewhat
steep.

Not optimized

>>>
provided one can figure a nice 32" f/3 parabola. Is it possible to
make a coma corrector optimized for visual use that entends the focal
length to let's say
f/5 at the same time? This way reasonable magnifications would be possible
and the eyepiece would not have such a hard job to deliver good images.

Buchroeder at the Bellingham conference said that even f/2.5 with corrector
would be 'easy' 'straightforward' - if I recall properly he said you will
need a two glass corrector spaced a few inches in front of the image plane
for easiest designing.
