Great points by all. I think my use of the word "cheat" is implying maybe too strong of a tone or action. I think getting out of the elevator early does not = cheating. I have been trying to learn this, but just don't have my plane and fingers set up for it yet.

Fredo, getting out of the Rudder is a timing thing. You can do it but must be careful of exactly when. I guess that is my concern, that we are "training" pilots to start with elevator rudder and aileron and finishing with aileron only. Guess it depends on how early in the snap we are encouraging releasing the inputs.
