masters Cuban 8 w/ 2/4

[Woodward James R Civ 412 TW/DRP/ACQ]

Thanks All.  I redrew the maneuver this time starting with 45 degree lines,
then fitting the CD into the lines until it touched both edges.  The center
two loop segments are actually separated by about 1.4 x Diameter of loop.
It explains why I was making them "big", and when I tried to shorten them up
a little could not do it.  

 

The Cuban 8 is proportionally bigger than the Double I of the Advanced
patten.  The Double I is basically two ½ loops separated by the diameter of
the ½ loop.  Sometimes, I see the advanced class making a HUGE Double I, and
some masters pilots making either small, medium, or big Cuban 8's.
Interesting. 

Thanks,

 

Jim W.

Arturo,

           You are correct. I was ignoring where and when you entered the
maneuver. It is as you specified unless you are doing a reverse Cuban 8 and
then you go from the 1/8 part first.

 

Sorry if I misled.

 

Eric.
