[NSRCA-discussion] New maneuver for Masters or FAI

[Gray E Fowler]

It was a long manuever...he had crisp fast rolls that stopped on the 
money. Our version would require a slow foward speed and fast roll rate to 
get it in. When I saw it I had to stop and think what it was that I just 
saw. There would be no time to think...just execute-and you better get the 
rudder correct....

Nah…he had it right.  You reverse roll direction each time.  ¾ right, 5/4 
left, ¾ right, 5/4 left…or the opposite.  It’s a cool maneuver…just not 
sure there’s enough box…

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.
