[NSRCA-discussion] Judging Question

[Gene Maurice]

If the points are so fast as to make it indiscernible what angle they
occurred at, then I would tend to doubt whether the point occurred at all.
Score 0. It is the pilot's responsibility to present the maneuver in such a
manner to demonstrate that the maneuver has in fact been done according to
the rules. I sincerely doubt that a 4 point can be done in 1.25 seconds with
defined stops in the roll every 90 degrees. But it remains that if, as a
judge, you cannot clearly see the relevant elements of any maneuver being
performed, then you should assume that IT HAS NOT been performed. The
elements must be demonstrated not assumed. 

 

Don Ramsey, can you clarify?

Ok time to get back to our favorite list questions.

This comes from a real life judging problem.  The question is about the
4-point roll.  This what I am seeing.  A 4 point roll that takes less than
1.25 second to complete.  You can see 4 very short pauses.  The manever
appears to be centered.  I see no change in height or coming in or out.  It
appears to be between 150M and 175M.  But the pauses are so short that I
cannot really tell if the rolls between pauses are 90 degrees.  So I cannot
see what the 1 point per 15 degree down grade should be.


What would you do?
