airplane, I was in an Extra 330S with Steve Rojecki, and we did several
snaps. I was VERY surprised to find that the snap was pretty
smooth.... not at all what I was expecting! Yes, my head moved
around a bit, but I was not thrown around the cockpit like I thought I would
be. I am sure that the way we entered it had a lot to do with
it!</FONT></DIV>

<DIV>Similar to the (should I say it) "Stall Turn", where a 1 wing
displacement up/down is ok. It is possible for the plane to travel up/down on
exactly the same line, but there are no downgrades if it moves laterally by
one wingspan.</DIV>

<DIV>Smoothness and gracefulness have been mentioned a few times in this
thread. Somehow, I don't believe there is anything smooth and graceful about a
snap roll. :-) Have you ever been in a real plane that has done a snap roll? I
have. :-0</DIV>

<DIV>As I have said many times, the real heroes in this hobby are the cockpit
dummys. No matter what kind of crap we put them through, they continue to hold
a straight face. They won't even close their eyes before
impact!!!</DIV></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML>
