    &quot;Somewhere in the 3/4 loop portion&quot; is awfully vague and
    unjudgeable. I could buy anywhere in the 3/4 loop portion but not
    somewhere.<br>
    The center you are describing would appear to be affected somehow by
    the entry and exit lines of the maneuver as per your description in
    the March K-Factor. I don&#39;t see that. This maneuver(figure 9) could
    be described as a single loop with a straight vertical line between
    the first quadrant and the last three quadrants. What rolls occur do
    not affect that basic shape. That places the center of the maneuver
    at the initial pullup into a quarter loop just as it would for a
    simple loop. The apex of the 3/4 loop would also be on the
    centerline and so would the return to level flight at the exit.<br>
    As far as the straight line entry and exit being somehow offset, I
    don&#39;t see that either. The entry line ends at the quarter loop
    pullup and exit line begins upon completion of the 3/4 loop. Those
    two points should form a vertical line. I see that as the maneuver
    centerline as well.<br>
    It&#39;s certainly true that the aresti shows the wrong center and it is
    certainly true that the sub-committee chair has the last word but he
    should be using a better word than &quot;somewhere&quot;.<br>
