[NSRCA-discussion] Masters 2009 sequence diagrams are posted on the NSRCA site

[Jon Lowe]

It is all perspective.  The top should appear smaller than the bottom, 
thus you pull earlier that you'd think you would on the top segment, 
giving you more time on the down line.   I remember watching when the 
FAI pilots were flying it.  They flew the maneuver smaller than you'd 
think to keep the proportions closer together in apparent size.

By the way, I don't know what I am doing wrong (besides not been able 
to practice) in the hourly glass.  My problem is that it appears very 
difficult to make the upper portion equal to the lower portion.  I run 
out of space coming down.  Have you guys notice that?  I think is 
apparent to the pilot but judges are going to have the same problem 
because the upper portion is too high compared to the lower portion.

Rick,
I wa
nt to thank you for posting these.  I read thru the Powerpoint
presentation on the Masters sequence last nite, and picked up on two
key points that I had completely missed.  I hadn't thought about
pulling early on the start of the hourglass to maintain geometry,  and
I had completely missed the fact that there is no hesitation in the
two, two of two rolls opposite.  I had been practicing both manuevers
incorrectly.  In fact, I would have sworn there WAS a hesitation in the
rolls before I read your presentation and rechecked the rules.  Now if
the weather would break so I could get more practice...

Job well done.
