weekend with Chuck Edwards. All in all good, with a few thoughts.<br>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:
12.0pt'>I like it. Flows reasonably well. Some fun challenges, but
nothing daunting. The two rolls opposite is easily the prettiest maneuver
in the schedule, and it will separate anyone not comfortable rolling both ways.

<div>
<p class=MsoNormal><b><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span
style='font-size:12.0pt;font-weight:bold'>One concern</span></font></b> - The
only sticky maneuver I thought is the 1 1/4, KE flight, 1 1/4. It’s
simply too long to make look pretty, and if it’s a strong head wind, will
really look like crap. You’re basically trying to fit 2 1/2 rolls AND
sustained KE flight on a downwind leg and stay in the box, thus forcing
somewhat rapid rolls which simply look rushed. <br>
<font color="#5856d6"><span style='color:#5856D6'><br>
</span></font>I would strongly suggest changing it to 3/4 roll, KE, 3/4 roll.
Same difficulty really, but a full roll shorter and thus allows for a
more graceful, controlled roll rate.<br>
<font color="#5856d6"><span style='color:#5856D6'><br>
</span></font>Total Mah draw in modest wind (7-9kt cross) was 3580mah
without paying particular attention to throttle management, given that it
was the first time through the sequence. Quite a bit less time and power
than the current schedule.<o:p></o:p></p>

</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:
12.0pt'>It’s also nice, with one <i><span style='font-style:italic'>major</span></i>
concern. The Cobra. It’s not as conventional as I think is
expected, and I feel it’s too much for an advanced flyer just learning to snap
their airplane (my opinion). You’re already a bit rushed going into is,
and you’re pushing in from Inverted. No biggie. Half roll up, over
the top and back down on a 45. THEN you have a single snap on the 45 deg
DOWN line. <br>
<font color="#5856d6"><span style='color:#5856D6'><br>
</span></font>I can tell you from personal experience and a re-kitted Spark (<st1:place
w:st="on">St.</st1:place> Clairsville flying F-11 with a 1 1/2 snap down on the
cobra) that a snap like this <b><span style='font-weight:bold'>WILL </span></b>crash
an airplane. You’re heading down, not all that high to begin with, and if
you badly miss the snap and lose your orientation, you’re likely on low
throttle and low airspeed and will proceed to stall/snap it into the ground in your
attempt to recover. I’d much rather see a snap on the UP leg of
the cobra. It would still be rushed, but FAR more airplane and pilot
friendly. <br>
<font color="#5856d6"><span style='color:#5856D6'><br>
</span></font>Other than that, is has all the traditional challenges.
Power was very low as I flew the schedule with only 2800mah (also a
7-9kt crosswind). <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
