  Initially I was ready to debate this one, as I saw the length of the 45 Degree up, to one side of the vertical up, as being equal in length to the diameter of the loop on the opposite side of the vertical up and therefore the vertical up should represent the center, but there are a couple of other elements to consider. Remember, we are required to execute an entry and exit line of equal length. The end of the exit line would therefore be much closer to the vertical up than the beginning of the entry line.If you take these two lines into account, as indeed we must, you will then see that this shifts the center location toward the 45 up and indeed Mr. Kababjian is correct, in my opinion, that the center of the 45 up should represent the center of the maneuver. 
     Thanks Don for the stimulation.

      Center maneuver, pull 45 degrees, 7/8 outside loop to verical, two point 
      roll up, exit upright. 

      Where is the center?  P03 Aresti sequence shows center is the loop center, 
      IAC/full scale says center is the middle of the 45 degree line.  By pattern 
      definition, the center of whole maneuver is  maybe the vertical up line- 
      which is it? 

      Thanks, 
      Don

    Don, 
    There are several elements but only three parts, the 45 deg up line, the 7/8 loop, and the vert w/ 2 pt roll to upright. I believe the IAC/full scale is correct= the middle of the 45 deg up line.
