Intermediate Question - Two 1/2 rolls, Opposite<BR></FONT><BR></DIV>

<DIV>Hi Larry, </DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>No requirement for the length of the pause, it just needs to be a clear
pause and needs to be centered.</DIV>

<DIV style="RIGHT: auto">If I roll inverted and then roll upright in the
opposite direction, is it assumed there was a pause because it is natural in 1/2

<DIV style="RIGHT: auto"> </DIV>
<DIV style="RIGHT: auto">As I recall the length of pause is not a downgrade.
However, being a spectator at a contest earlier this year I noted many
Intermediate pilots with a very long pause, almost or likely an inverted flight
segment in the manuever as the length of inverted seemed much more than just a
pause perhaps a second or so.</DIV>
<DIV style="RIGHT: auto"> </DIV>
<DIV style="RIGHT: auto">Inverted segment must be centered. For scoring, if I
roll early to inverted, I must hold the same length on the other side of center
so that the inverted segment is centered. Not a questioning this...</DIV>
<DIV style="RIGHT: auto"> </DIV>
<DIV style="RIGHT: auto">Probably should have clarified this prior to the day
before a contest... LOL</DIV>
