f16man is correct. A lomcevak (sometimes spelled lomcovak) is an aerobatic maneuver where the plane tumbles end over end. A "lomcevak duck" is what people on the ground do when a pilot attempts a new maneuver for the first time and people in the pits "duck" or run to get out of the way.

Usage: "Pete tried a new 3D maneuver, but ended up losing the plane in the pits. We all did the lomcevak duck and scattered before his plane hit my truck."

My avatar is a duck tumbling end-over-end that I drew while pretending to pay attention in a music appreciation class a little more than a decade ago.

Pretty good drawing.
