<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'>Actually if you look at the explanation of Aresti page in your
rule book…look at the figure 9 it’s the 3<sup>rd</sup> one down on the right
column. This has negative then positive elements.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'>It shows that the 8 sided loop portion should be solid while the
entry and exit lines are dashed.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'>To define it as it is in the Aresti Catalog a solid line is
positive G’s while a broken or dashed line is negative G’s. You can be inverted
and still be carrying positive G’s…Look at the loop. Or even the outside loop
from upright entry just above the figure 9. This is how it should be depicted
per the Aresti rules. It’s a polygon loop that is positive G from an inverted
entry.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'>In the 8 sided loop the radii are all positive G’s and hence
should be solid. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'>We interpret upright vs inverted but this is really not the
case. It has to do with the G load on the airframe and in the case of vertical
lines the G load used in the corner.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'>It’s all kinda subjective a little. After all the 45 degree
inverted line the first leg of the 8 sided is negative G but the corner to get
there is positive. However on the figure 9 I referenced the radius to get to
the vertical downline is negative G but the downline is drawn as positive G
since the bottom radius to pull out is positive.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'>Personal preference would probably decide, either one works for
the intent. It’s not like you can come from the top down any other way than
positive corners. It’s just a symbol that is short hand for the figure. There
is not a better way to short hand the figures and Aresti is the universal
standard. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'>I think based on my copy of the official Aresti Catalog from
2007 I would say the polygon loop should be solid line. This is AMA pattern and
Aresti carries zero weight in the judging of the maneuver. In AMA only the
worded descriptor has any judging weight. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'>In F3A the Aresti is by definition EQUAL to the word description
of the figure. Especially since the unknown catalog has zero worded descriptors
and all Aresti figures. Many folks get this confused. Aresti was added to the
AMA rule book in order to eliminate those hard to produce ribbon drawings and
go to a standard that is universally recognized around the world for
aerobatics. It was one or the other for a symbol or a picture. Aresti symbols
have a reason to be there and are graphically easier to reproduce.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
