  I remember Joe Lachowski mentioning he bent an aluminum tube doing this maneuver, Joe, correct me if I'm wrong. I guess in our quest for light weight aircraft, we will reveal any structural deficiencies while performing ridiculous maneuvers. Troy's schedule was my vote then and even more so now. It had more grace and was less demanding in the power department. Looks like it might be safer too. You think the few pattern manufacturers left will be able to supply enough kits over the next 3 years ??

    I *think*, and perhaps incorrectly recall that MANY folks protested this specific maneuver.  Wonder who added it to the sequence that was proposed in the first place?

    Wonder if CD's can publish a deviation from the sequence to avoid having contests that are "less than fun" for Masters guys?
        Any AMA sanction/rule experts out there?
