[NSRCA-discussion] New maneuver for Masters or FAI

[Fred Huber]

3/4 + 5/4 = 8/4 =2 which would be upright, not inverted...  3/4 + 3/4 would be 6/4 = 1.5 which is inverted... so it probably was 3/4 of a roll for each point.

  I just went to the Fort Worth airshow and I saw a maneuver that is so cool that some class above me needs to adopt it. 
  I am going to try to remember how it went.....it is a 4 point roll 


  from straight flight 

  3/4 roll right to knife edge (belly of the plane) 
  5/4 roll left to inverted 
  3/4 roll right to knife edge (top of the plane) 
  5/4 roll to upright. 

  Anyone ever see this and does it have a name. I may have gotten it slightly wrong, as it took me by surprise. It was Frank Ryder and the Oreck vacuum cleaner powered plane-Cyclone.
