[NSRCA-discussion] New maneuver for Masters or FAI

[Bob Richards]

I've seen a 4 point roll with 3/4 rolls, but I don't recall seeing the manuever you describe.

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.
