Amen,Amen,Amen!!!!! How astute Jimbo! This has always been one of
my strongest pet peeves. Thanks for bringing emphasis to this all too frequent
error.

wanted to pass along an observation about flying that may seem obvious
to some, but time & time again amazes me. In D7 we've already
had two contests. The best flyers in each class (sportsman, intermediate,
advanced, Masters, FAI) fly the fundamental element of our equation the
best - straight and level flight. You can't escape it... Resistance
is futile... If you are having problems with your sequence (who among
us does not?) take a weekend and practice straight & level flight at
low, mid, and top of the box with some simple turnaround maneuvers and
a friend standing beside you calling wing low/high/ whatever. Then
work into flying the sequence with some one calling wing low/high throughout
each maneuver. I recently went through this and it provided a whole
new look. The result is that I also needed to relearn most of the
rudder corrections because I had worked into a habit of having the inside
wing low. The sequence is getting better now and I'm very glad a
friend and I stripped the flying down to this fundamental. If we
don't learn this, we will never reach our potential.</font></font></span>
