roll smoothly with rudder (among other things) and by the END of advanced, if
you’re smart, you’ve spent a little time testing the Masters pattern and have
played with rolling in both directions. Mastering that will occur in masters
though. What’s the point of moving up if you’ve already mastered the skill in
the previous level?? I guess it’s me, but it seems the whole idea of moving up
“I’m done with this level, time to learn something new”… There’s a difference
between building blocks and just pushing all the maneuvers down a level.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

color:#1F497D'>No, I’ll agree to disagree. I think you begin using roll
with rudder as you’re LEAVING intermediate. Putting in a slow roll would
require you to use it upon entry into that class which means you would need to
be doing it at the end of sportsman which is almost ridiculous.
When you’re rolling comfortably with rudder, it’s time for Advanced and point
and slow rolls. </span><span style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p>

point. Sean is learning to use elevator on his rolls in sportsman as he
should before moving up. I bet most sportsman pilots don't use elevator
at all before moving up (I'm guilty of that). I also have seen a lot of
intermediate pilots fly 2 rolls without using rudder. I've even had folks
tell me not to use rudder on my 2 rolls. I believe this is bad
advice. Slow rolls and point rolls in intermediate would force
intermediate pilots to learn to roll with rudder before moving up.
Requiring advanced pilots to learn slightly more complicated rolling maneuvers
(yet less complicated rolling maneuvers than masters) would lessen the gap

with a 4 pt roll. I've heard others doing the same. I agree that
this can be taken to extremes. For example, I've heard folks suggest that
intermediate add 3 rolls. I believe this will cause pilots to drop the
rudder and only use elevator which I believe is detrimental later on (all rolls
should include rudder and elevator). Maybe move the 4 pt roll and the
slow roll down to intermediate and add some more complicated rolling maneuvers
such as 2 half rolls reversed inverted to inverted or 2 half rolls reversed
knife edged to knife edge. These or similar changes would close the

<div>
<p class=MsoNormal>Having the turnarounds AND box exits in Sportsman is a
good thing, I think. As long as the turnarounds are not cross-box
maneuvers (like a Humpty) then I don't think it's asking too much of a
Sportsman pilot to try to keep things in the box until they get a break (box
exit). This is very good at preparing them for Intermediate (NO box exits) as
Pete said, yet it gives them some way to correct their lines.What tends to
happen to ALL of us is this: One little error moves your line. Then another
moves your line some more. Until you've learned how to correct your lines
smoothly and / or simply not make those errors in the first place (or at
least make them to a lesser degree) the errors accumulate and without box
exits, you only have cross-box maneuvers to help you correct them. Sportsman
doesn't have any cross-box maneuvers so how would they correct their line?
With box exits of course. <o:p></o:p></p>

<div>
<p class=MsoNormal>As a few people have said - and I say this all the time:
the sequence you fly contains the maneuvers which you are <em>judged</em> on.
This doesn't mean that you can't fly different maneuvers and / or sequences
when you practice. Do you guys just go to the field and fly <em>your</em>
sequence over and over <em>every</em> time? If so then I think you're
missing out on something very important. The difficulty between Masters and
Sportsman is (and should be) somewhat extreme. Yet there are only 4 classes
that must deal with this range of skills. It's nearly impossible to
make each progression seamless. You <em>must </em>learn at least some new
skills on your own. You can't expect that by repeatedly flying Advanced,
you'll somehow magically be prepared to fly Masters when you point out. Trust
me, you won't. VBG<o:p></o:p></p>

partially agree with your last post but those building blocks have to
come from somewhere. From my experience, I moved out of Sportsman 4 years
ago and then stopped flying to help raise my son until this year when I
got to fly again in Intermediate. My flights were ugly but at least I had an
idea of how it all had to go together because I learned those building blocks
in Sportsman. IF what is proposed were to have happened in my particular case
it would have been quite the obstacle to overcome and probably would have
taken some of the fun out flying pattern for me.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

a pilot needs work on geometry, and I know I sure do, then take the time to
practice the given maneuver outside the sequence. Go and burn a few tanks
flying the problem maneuvers and nothing else. </span><o:p></o:p></p>

opinion is Sportsman is fine the way it is and it lays a good foundation for
the progression in the classes.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
