Schedule design - Your homework assignment should you chose to accept it.

Thank you Verne,

Ref. Eric, "Here yaw go. I doubt something this radical would ever be 
accepted, but at
least it will serve to underline some of the concepts I was discussing and
defending recently on the List"

Verne,
            It's actually not that radical and you get bonus points for 
doing three of them :-)

Now, if you feel so inclined the, next part of the task would be to match 
the maneuvers. What we did/do is take each maneuver and trace how trains the 
pilot for the next level up. Then sometimes you tweak the maneuver.

For example, in your work below I would match the double stall turns and do 
the following;
401 - Double Stall Turn
402 - Double Stall Turn
403 - Double Stall Turn w/Half Rolls
404 etc.

What leaps out at me is the 402 could be tweaked to have 1/4 rolls and then 
you would have a pretty darn good ladder to climb with no rungs missing.

401 - Double Stall Turn
402 - Double Stall Turn w/Quarter Rolls
403 - Double Stall Turn w/Half Rolls

What do you think?

Regards,

Eric.

P.S. Even though this is an exercise it does allow you to show how 
interested you might be in getting involved in our future.
