Since the list is pretty quite it just might be a good time to throw another
plane problem that has been hurting my little brain lately.  
 
A friend has a Focus and flying the Intermediate pattern.  He is doing quite
well but a few days ago the plane was put through some paces that required
more outside manuevering than the Int. schedule.  This is when a strange and
blatant problem became evident.  
 
Imagine the plane flying from left to right, str and level.  Push to a one
half outside loop or bunt.  Plane tracks perfectly thru two thirds of the
half loop then a little prior to being wings level headed right to left, the
planes nose begins to move toward the flightline by twenty degrees or more.
Basically it corkscrews to the planes right wing during outside loops but
only begins its deviation in the last third or quarter of the half loop.
Ideas???
 
Dan
