[NSRCA-discussion] Off line maneuvers

[Bob Richards]

Instead of making a big S turn, kick the rudder to move in/out as needed. You will be downgraded for the course correction, but if you bank the plane then you also get hit for wings not being level. Also, it is usually better to blow the turnarounds to get your position back and then fly the centered manuever well, since most turnarounds have lower K-factors than the centered maneuvers.
   
  What planes were they flying back in '85?

Yikes!
I am in sensory overload with all the printouts, rules and internet 
threads...
Can someone please answer a quick question?
If I find myself either too far in or out between a centered maneuver and 
the turnaround, what will it cost me if I have to make a big "S" turn?
Thanks!
