[NSRCA-discussion] F21 - 3 questions

[james woodward]

Derek K.,

Thanks so much for your response.  Although I recognize of course that in
FAI, the Description takes priority over the Picture, They often match
enough that it makes sense to use the picture as a guide.  They seem to
align the "picture" with the description intent in roll combinations, and
rolling circles, most of the time.

Q 1:  Agree - application of the continuous roll and part roll language.
Thus - the Entry & Exit "1/4 Integrated Rolls" need to match each other,
but do not need to match the Upline 1 roll, or Downline Opposite 1/2
Rolls.  The Upline 1 Roll and Downline 1/2 rolls need to match each other.
  Entry & Exit Radii also need to match.

Q2:  Agree - The maneuver was drawn to depict 1/4 Roll and same direction
Snap Roll, then Opposite direction Snap Roll & same direction 1/4 Roll.
(There may be more discussion on this, but I think the drawing supports the
intent).

Q3:  Agree - The maneuver is drawn to depict "outside" Rolls.  If you
perform Outside rolls, then the "Pull-Push radii" language also aligns in
the Description.  (similar to how they draw a rolling circle).

Thanks and looking forward to any discussion on the matter.  Better to iron
this stuff out early in the season, than later.
