<P> </P>
<P>Here is my guess. It is very good question:</P>
<P> </P>
<P>The name of the maneuver takes precedence. We can adjust the altitude by increasing or decreasing the length of both sides of the 1/2 square. Therefore, both have to be equal. This is because we will need to preserve the square shape. This is not necessarily the case in other other turnaround maneuvers. </P>

<P>I found the description. Here is:</P>

<P>OK. I hope that this is clear. Have a nice week. </P>

It is a turn <BR>around maneuver and most turn around maneuvers can be used to adjust <BR>height. <BR>My view would be that both legs should be equal but I can see where it <BR>could be argued that since you are adjusting your exit height, you <BR>should be able to vary the length.<BR><BR>Jeff Buchner asked me this at the Ft.
