<div style="RIGHT: auto"><SPAN style="RIGHT: auto"> I still don't exactly know what a snap with a 2 meter pattern plane is supposed to look like. I went to the World Championships last year to see how the best of the best do a snap and I still can't say for sure that most of those guys were snapping.</SPAN></div>
<div style="RIGHT: auto"><SPAN style="RIGHT: auto"> I just know what I think it looks like. I guess I'll have to assume that most people are snapping even though it looks like an axle roll with a small tail wiggle<VAR id=yui-ie-cursor></VAR> to me.</SPAN></div>
<div style="RIGHT: auto"><SPAN style="RIGHT: auto"> I guess it's kind of what we've evolved into.</SPAN></div>

<DIV id=yiv1049528720><FONT color=black size=3 face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">There is a definite problem with question 33 of the subject quiz. As of today, only 23% of 22 people who have taken the quiz have gotten it correct. The problem seems to be the last portion of the question. I entered "same altitude" for the answer, and the only correct answer in the quiz is "same point" when referring to the entry and exit. The question refers to 5B.8.7 of the FAI sporting code when it told me that my answer was wrong, but nowhere in that section is "same point" stated. The code does refer to "no deviation in altitude", so I submit that my answer is correct. If only 23% are getting it right, the problem is obvious.
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>I also got a question wrong when I accidentally hit my mouse button twice when moving to the next question. That put blanks in the answer field of the following question. The program should be revised to not accept blank answers, and to kick you back to the question, to prevent this type of issue. </DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>But all in all, I MUCH prefer this method of certification to sitting thru long certification meetings with endless discussions of "what is a snap"! Thanks to all who put this together.<BR><BR>
