Look at how slowly your plane rotates in a spin with little or no aileron added. That is a proper autorotation at 1 G.
The answer is that it can be a real snap at pretty close to the same rotation rate.

Well, how slow can a snap roll be and still be a snap.

Exactly. So... if you guys think that it's impossible to judge all of the elements in this hypothetical 1.25 second 4-point roll, then how DO you judge all the elements in a snap roll? I've never seen a "slow" snap roll. Just wondering. :)

Easy to judge....like a snap?  A fast or slow demonstration is not a cause for downgrade unless it gets to the point where you really can't see the elements because its so fast.  Slight variations, or even large variations from pilot to pilot, as long as all the elements are detectable are OK.

Randy,
 
You as the Judge must not guess whether something happened or did not. The pilot should produce a maneuver that is easy to judge. If he fails to show you what is needed, and you are not sure that he did show you, then it's your responsibility to downgrade.

Ok time to get back to our favorite list questions.

This comes from a real life judging problem.  The question is about the 4-point roll.  This what I am seeing.  A 4 point roll that takes less than 1.25 second to complete.  You can see 4 very short pauses.  The manever appears to be centered.  I see no change in height or coming in or out.  It appears to be between 150M and 175M.  But the pauses are so short that I cannot really tell if the rolls between pauses are 90 degrees.  So I cannot see what the 1 point per 15 degree down grade should be.


What would you do?


Randy
