[NSRCA-discussion] 1985 Nats

[mups53]

That's excellence and longevity extraordinaire.I absolutely loved the video. Ivan and and Chip going head to head. Relevant discussions on the nuances of particular maneuvers. Wow!. Chip if I'm correct flew at a high level for four decades including World Championships from the 80's all the way until the teens. He still to this day is a world class talent. Ivan was the Canadian champion for how many years? How many TOC's and World Championships did he fly at?MikeSent from my Verizon, Samsung Galaxy smartphone

A Pmix between the throttle servo and pitch servo was used to flatten the pitch at low RPM (better braking) and increase pitch at higher throttle.  As Ivan said….pricy….and added substantial weight (5 or so ounces) at a time when most F3A planes were 8 lbs +/-.

Seems like an interesting concept. On Sat, Mar 28, 2020 at 9:19 AM Don Szczur via NSRCA-discussion <nsrca-discussion at lists.nsrca.org> wrote:Xavier, Nice find.  I flew in Advanced that year and was just looking through those pictures in my photo album.    Great to hear the Chip Hyde interview-  description on the elevator to preserve geometry of the avalanche is right on.  Ivan's advice on the six sided loop is still relevant today.... "Make the corners with authority, don't make maneuver too big, and the (F21- half 8 sided loop with two half rolls) becomes much easier to do..."  and Dean Pappas discussing the finer points....
