[NSRCA-discussion] Masters 2007 Figure "M" question

Tue Oct 17 13:33:52 AKDT 2006

Personally, I think this should fall under "technique", not judging critieria. If the manuever looks correct *according to the rules* then it does not matter which way it rolled. Period.

  I disagree, I personally like to roll canopy into the wind. I think it does
present a little better and also can help auto wind correct for you. A
perfect example is an immelman that at the top the nose is heading away from
you due to wind, or in to far due to bad wind correction. You can roll
canopy into the wind and it is much less noticeable than rolling the other
way which exaggerates the problem.

Dr. Ralph Brooke (world champion) said always to do your rolls away from 
the flight line. This makes any directional heading movement less 
noticeable. Dwayne
