[Chuck Hochhalter]

In a half reverse turn around there are only two radii, therefore they must match regardless FAI or AMA

Physically tight (in feet, for example), or tight (fast speed through the radius giving the impression that the plane is pulling excessive g's, however that is interpreted).   A slow flying radius could be extremely tight, for example the last radius at the bottom of the triangle loop (135 degree pull) or figure Z.
